Refractory Gauls, or the French politics thread

[Valmy]

He's very much in the "NATO is the real aggressor" camp.

In that case NATO is a fucking genius. They found a way to kill hundreds of thousands of Russians, and get hundreds of thousands of others to emigrate, without firing a shot.

One would think a French politician would appreciate that kind of Machiavellian realpolitik

I just don't have enough faith in NATO as being run by geniuses to adopt this perspective.

Second hand info but I heard Macrons deputy said today you have it vote for them or else you'll have the right bashing gays and the left bashing bus stops.
The left hates buses?

Mélenchon has always been pretty clear, as in presidential elections debates, that he would let Balts high and dry, even coming up with a "The Balts have had trouble with Russians for a thousand years".

So no question about Ukrainians.

Has this done anything for his popularity?
The French left did seem potentially to be on the verge of a breakthrough pre Ukraine. They've came awfully close in recent elections.

I'm pretty sure that the electorate Mélenchon chases are the ones that'll be bashing gays...
and maybe beheading teachers too while we're at it.

That really does sound like the sort of thing your guys get up to.
I've not heard of the modern far left having much to say against gay people and murdering teachers? Eh?

Mélenchon chases the muslim vote, they don't like gays and they're not afraid to beat 'em up. Or behead teachers.
You must be pretty evil to deny that simple reality.

I have no idea about melenchon and Muslims.
I do know however that hating gay people and killing teachers is very extreme right behaviour.
Muslim, Christian, whatever. Just different paint jobs on the same shit.
