Roadblocked 

When an typically grassroots political party or movement gets killed off because the pseudo-democratic powers at be don't like it as it interferes with their agenda. In doing so the illusion of democracy is thought to be maintained as it doesn't appear too blatant and the movement ends up disappearing leaving people with no alternative by the time an election comes. Thus the cycle never ends yet the government will claim democracy works and gives everybody a choice.

Usual methods of roadblocking include but are not limited to: getting hijacked or bribed, not given any media time , paid or being classed as a terrorist organization.

Minnesota Roadblock 

For any cars travelling on the interstate in the fast lane that go the same speed as the car in the slow lane. This essentially blocks all cars from passing them.

Asian Roadblock 

The Asian Roadblock is when a group of Asian students spread out over a sidewalk or other heavily trafficked walking route and decide to walk at 0.2 feet per hour. This phenomenon has been noticed at all universities across North America; experts speculate that it is a scheme set up by Chinese agents in order to stifle the progress of Western higher education.
