If you ask the population what problems actually matter to them right now, a large part of them will answer “close the borders to protect us from crime”.
Which would mean leaving the EU despite the fact that the crime rate is lower than it was in the past.
Or they’ll say “make gas cheaper”. Which the government can’t do without bankrupting itself and would cause loads of other problems.
Then you have a party that promises to solve the problems that are actually behind why people are struggling: the rent crisis, rich people syphoning off all wealth, the cost of living, etc…
That party got 8% of the vote.
This mindset is manufactured by the Nazi scum turning a cost of living and inequality crisis into an immigration and crime crisis in order to present foreigners as an easy scapegoat. The established parties and the media jumped the bandwagon and joined in on their lies.

How do you solve this in a democracy?
A democracy that actually wants to solve the problem of power hungry unscrupulous politicians abusing the system by blatantly lying needs to punish lies, and regulate the media.
These days the media are largely only parrotting everything that is said to them rather than doing their job as journalists and exposing lies and falsehoods as what they are. Instead they are hiding behind false balance and will parrot some insane crackpot’s made up lies to counter any fact they might accidentally have to report.

So to save democracy, we need to abolish 2 of its most important characteristics - freedom of speech and freedom of the press.
Tolerance Paradoxon.
No tolerance for intolerance.
No freedom is absolute. If you can keep abusing your rights with no repercussions, those rights are worthless.
