Sweeping across Europe (…) and nothing good ever comes from it.

100% agreed. To me personally, it shakes the foundation of democracy as we know it. Especially, since voter(s) appear to be so easily manipulated. These processes are hollowing out the meaning of " democratically installed Gvements ".

From another point of view, one could argue that this is exactly how democracy works, and this is what people want. But I wonder how come propagandist rhetoric haven’t been condemned in elections? Not sure I understand all that though.

Added, a recent example; Just consider the Brexit elections and how most UK constituents were duped by politicians to opt out. Now, in 2023 they talk about Regrexit, as a majority would now cast a different vote. The consequences of decisions where people are somehow “mislead”, often prove costly and severe.
