Can we get any anti-establishment, revolutionaries that are not in their 70s?
!ping FRANCE
1. Mélenchon is the biggest supporter of illiberal ideas on the Left in France, his decision to run may even give the win to the far-right if he gets to the 2nd round
2. Discuss left-wing anti-liberalism and personalist politics
Polling: would you vote for Mélenchon or Bardella on the 2nd round if you had to choose?
3. IMO It was sure he would run, but ever since the assault charges against his favorite protégé, who is really gonna be his heir? Certainly not the incompetent loyalists he recruited straight out of student unions politics or NGOs. all parties in France are personalist to an extent, but Mélenchon and the RN are both extremely bad (the RN moreso IMO because it’s a family mafia), someone on rFrance joked that the last person to run this often was Jean-Marie le Pen himself
Can Mélenchon just keel over and die (not literally*) and retire? I am tired of him.
*I mean “not literally” because I prefer not wishing for his death.
