A historically-high number of voters have chosen parties classified as authoritarian or populist, according to a new report analysing parliamentary election results for 260 parties in 31 countries since 1946, or since the year free elections were first held.
Indeed.
Plenty of countries also don’t have a winner takes all. As a prevention against extremists.
Take Belgium for example. The populist party won the highest votes. But even the other right-wing parties didn’t want anything to do with them. So they made a coalition with the left to keep those fuckers out.
Since even the other right-wing parties knew how dumb, bad and ineffective those populists ideas were. Like who cares there are trans people running around. There are actual problems that need to be solved.
