The Netherlands has a multi-party system just like reformers in the US want, reputable elections, biking infrastructure that people won't shut up about, a long tradition of social democracy, and just had a far-right election victory. The rise of fascism is not some trickery by Trump or the Russians or the US system: it's part of the world-wide failure of neoliberalism, which suppressed the left and then died.
@RichPuchalsky I would not only concentrate on the competition and effects between political systems (neolib vs. right or left) within a country of an election itself, but also take into account the role of (international) media and worldwide malicious adversarial influence on social media. Due to massive campaigns on social and classic media, every open democracy currently is extremely vulnerable to hybrid warfare on social media - especially during election campaigns.
