This is extremely disappointing, but sadly unsurprising.

  Step 1: Strangle opposition traditional media
  Step 2: Stifle dissenting social media
  Step 3: Quash all public demonstrations with extreme prejudice
  Step 4: Jail dissenting voices in Academia
  Step 5: Charge opposition candidates
  Step 6: Observably free and fair elections!
