Bro….. you can’t have a functioning democracy with an anti-democratic party freely participating in it. If a party’s explicit goal is to end democracy, they really SHOULDN’T be allowed to participate in democracy at all.

Paradox of tolerance and all…

Democracy shouldn’t be a free-for-all, where warlords can win enough votes to conquer the world. That is insane.
