The current governemtn is close to the far-right, there are more and more attacks on muslim people without much of a eep from the government, there are openly neofascists manifestations in the streets of Paris (not even just far-right, open fascist)...
macron is surrounded by people from the left, he was minister under a leftist government which paved the way to his first term, most of his policies are left-leaning: strong state interventionism, strong government spending, protection of retirements pensions, suppression of tax on renters, The immigration record for the past year exceeded all forecasts. Visas rose by 16.8%, reaching 2,858,083 in 2024, he is even trying to regularize illegal immigrants in some industries. I really don't know what media you are watching but you should stick to the facts.
the majority of attacks and acts of vandalism are against christians in France (from the order of 9-10 times more) and acts of vandalism/violence on muslims actually decreasing year after year (around 130 right now). You can push some propaganda or vision of what is France but numbers matter and looking at numbers we are a failing left leaning government that increased debt and spending like crazy and is now trying to backtrack on many topics because what is looming is what happened to the greeks.
i never said anything about being "dangerous leftist" I am just saying they are left leaning you translated that by being dangerous for some reason. I am not judging wether right or left is best. I am not biased toward any side unlike you.
left leaning is state interventionism, increase of governement debt, refusal to change the pension funds system, tax reduction on people that have no generational wealth, increased tax on people owning real estate, making the working class - besides the lowest income tier- pay for the others. I am not stating wether it is bad or good here again merely saying that most of macron big moves were to cater to the left politics.
far-right and unseen before immigration numbers should already prove to you that something is wrong with your reasoning.
The left (LFI and Communists) lost the working class long ago. - was already the case under hollande - and Macron brilliantly saw an opportunity to cater to those working class people that were not seeing immigration as the #1 problem but purchasing power, jobs, retirements pensions. This wrecked the chances of far-right parties that were focused on immigration and this also doomed the far-left - that will call anyone disagree with them right wing like you do - with a need to find their own way to seize power and they decided to focus on : immigration, racism and more recently palestine. Once again not voicing wether its good or bad. its probably all that was left to them when they had to face a brighter opponent than them.
calling Macron and his two mandates right-wing is just dishonest. we have more immigrants than ever. more governement. more debt. more spending into our social net than ever.
I dont know what you are saying. Trump just started a few months ago and the migrations at the border got divided by large numbers. Meloni reported 60% less illegal immigration last year by breaking deal with north african countries.
Trump launched DOGE, Zemmour in france is daily promoting less governement less foreign funding.
You are writing this under an article where everyone left side of the political spectrum is in favor of banning a social network because its owner criticize mass immigration, and leave free to speak some right wing ideas more than over social networks. If the far-right was in power how would you explain even the launch of a criminal probe against X. Nothing make sense in what you trying to convey.
>If the far-right was in power how would you explain even the launch of a criminal probe against X.
Ah yes, the French far right is very much in favor of letting a South African drughead billionaire with ties with the American government, India, Russia and Saudi Arabia manipulate French public opinion.
Alas, despite your passionate defense of his freedom of speech against everyone else's, Musk is still unlikely to send you his semen for you to bear his child.
