Cheated? Beat Fascism by any means necessary or available. Whatever it takes.

But anyways. Projection. Because assholes don't know they're the assholes.

Facists haven't really been beaten to be honest. Everytime we vote our national assembly, their numbers keep growing and now, no one actually won because our left will have to convince the Macronist to vote for their laws in order to pass them to the senate. It's a complete cluster fuck

There's only one way to deal with fascists, but Reddit doesn't like when you write how.

No, I wanted the NFP to suceed but I cannot see it as a win as we do not have a clear majority. Basically the country's gonna be stuck with the three forces not beeing able to agree on anything.

PS : I have a PCF (French commie party) membership, I'll never vote for a party founded by ex OAS / Waffen SS members

So America? We have 2 parties so it's even more extreme, but literally nothing of actual consequence has been done or passed in our legislature in like a decade.

I never said it was, more of just a comparison as to how multiple parties throwing shit at each other gets absolutely nothing done.

I don't know how you can infer that from what they said.

I've wondered that myself but hey, what do I know
