Thats why its really fricking important to have more than two parties, so coalitions can be formed to counter such things.

At the other end of the spectrum, the two countries with the strongest form of proportional representation, also have problems: politics in The Netherlands is nearly paralyzed, it becomes harder every election to form a coalition. And Israeli politics radicalized anyway.

Maybe indeed the relatively best solution is in the middle: proportional representation with well-chosen thresholds.
