So, free and fair elections. Well, now we're back to square one, and pretty much describing how Western democracies work.

Consider Australia: all of the major political parties nakedly serve the interests of capital, and decide who can and cannot run in their elections. This is the case in all of the liberal "democracies". They aren't "free and fair" elections by any reasonable definition.
