> see no contradiction in being financed by foreign white people
Exactly, they're gullible. Those parties don't realise that they're being manipulated for geopolitical interests way more important than identity politics. Or maybe they do, which makes it even worse.
Russia isn't supporting/funding Le Pen because of her immigration stance, but because of her anti-EU policies. Their goal is to weaken potential threats, they don't care about european demographics.

All nations with clout meddle in the elections of other nations. I see no outrage at Obama endorsing Macron, no is there any fury over the numerous foreign endorsements in media and financial support for Hillary's failed campaign. I would suggest that such interference is a fact of life, and it is up to the citizens of each nation to make the best decisions they can.
That said, what would you suggest be done with the Russians? Relations are already strained: should we isolate them completely from contact?

Melenchon wants to *reform* the EU to make it less liberal and more democratic. Isn't that exactly what it needs? Or are you saying the EU is perfect? Plus such reforms would significantly reduce the impact of far-right anti-EU parties.

Um, no. My point was that the slander campaign was ineffective. There was definitely no lack of trying though. What have they come up with, unfounded claims about him being gay? Don't make me laugh. Besides, "the media" and "the government" would have loved Fillon if he wasn't damaged goods, he would have destroyed Le Pen in the first round.

Honestly I thought he would have just shut up.
It's not surprising he's not supporting Hamon. Not only he has very different ideas, but when he was prime minister Hamon and other PS MP did a motion of censure against Valls' government, despite being from the same party. Being asked to be loyal to this guy is a bit of a joke.

Blame Macron for being such a shifty operative who only knows how to speak in platitudes. Either he has really bad advisors or he is not listening to good advice. He doesn't engender any confidence in his ability to govern. If he wins, we will most probably get more of the erratic policymaking and governing we saw from Hollande. There is a reason why calling him Emmanuel Hollande has been such an effective attack.

It's not a genuine change of views. Merkel only moves to the left when politically convenient. She could have legalised it years ago if she cared enough to stand against parts of the CDU/CSU coalition.
Germany still has ultra-harsh abortion laws, supports austerity measures for nationalist reasons ("stop those greedy Greeks from stealing our money again"), has a huge surplus for no good reason and Merkel herself denounced multiculturalism and supported Burka bans.
As a stray social democrat I can see why people love Macron and Trudeau but Merkel is a neoliberal false idol.

Depends on your economic stance.
Mélenchon is socialist and internationalist, so expect redistribution and regulation. Le Pen is liberal-nationalist, so expect heavy regulation toward the outside (if she's true to her word, but I'm skeptic) and deregulation inside. Pick your preference.

What's your point? What do you understand by repercussion? Isn't Le Pen in France a direct consequence of Islamist terrorism? Wasn't Brexit? Frauke Petry in Germany? Geert Wilders in your country? Jobbik in Hungary? Jimmie Akesson in Sweden? We are indeed letting these terrorists have repercussions in Europe -- "only" historical repercussions.
You can argue it was a mix of many reasons but we all know fear and hate towards islamist terrorism and immigration is what finally triggered *the average European* and all these right wing populist movements in the whole of Europe.

That's completely different. Being an African American is not a political ideology. More, even if a Muslim runs for the presidency, does mean he will follow a radical Islam ideology. You have Fillon and Sadiq Khan. Two politicians, one Christian and the other Muslim. Yet one is more conservative than the Pope. The other voted for same sex marriage in UK. It's very unlikely that France will get a radical or conservative Islamic candidate.

Yeah but Melenchon's to the left so once his base grows older they'll moderate toward Macronesque policies, like generations before them. Anyway, if you win by 33pts you're not a divided nation, you're winning by a margin that makes Reagan-Mondale look small. That's not a temporary setback, that's an absolute crapping on. The French don't like the far right. If they did, she'd be President. If she would ever be president, she would've gotten more than 35%.

man Merkel, Obama and Macron are all globalist. You literally know nothing other than what the news spews in your face. Educate yourself. For a 40 year old it's pathetic. Open your mind, think for yourself.
REEEE conspiracy you say? yea, see how many hours you've actually put into looking it up. Please just look into it instead of bashing others.

In contrast to everybody else, who obviously likes war and social regression? Like do you honestly believe this? This kind of rhetoric is cultish in and of itself.
Melenchon's NATO and EU positions, his hard income cap, his complete reversal of nuclear energy (it's like 70% of the French energy mix), his love for Fidel and Chavez and so on are all extremist positions. They go far beyond what any Social Democrat would do.

The socialist party is socialist in name only. Or at least it's extremely divided on the question. Hamon, who leans to the left, was chosen in the primary only to be abandoned by many other party leaders who endorsed Macron instead. Mélenchon also used to be part of the 'PS' until 2008 but left.

Ironically, it seems Macron doesn't seem to like the song. Instead, he used a german song as victory-music.

Yes, I just wanted to highlight that compared to blanks and abstention her score wasn't as high as some people thought.
If you were to rank candidates :
Macron > Blank + abstention > Le Pen

Why was western France such a Macron stronghold? In the first round he won the entire coast as well as most inland departments.

How are Trump and Le Pen horrible? I bring my conservative views to Reddit every day and get dogpiled on. I never try to start anything. I think both if their ideas are what their counties need right now, what's wrong with that?
Consider it a good thing that we all think differently. Extremes never lead to good things, and I think the left needs a counter balance right now.

i'm quite aware of this, as a leftist. however, placing liberalism in it's worst (centrist) form in opposition to ethno-nationalism seems to be very inaccurate to me.
a better parallel would have been to Melenchon, the communist, who is coincidentally surging in support right now.

Those polls were within the margin of error, not to mention that Hillary did get millions more votes than Trump.
There would need to be about a 20% margin of error for her to win. That is totally unprecedented - especially cxnsidering Le Pen UNDERpeformed her polls today.

Obama, Macron, and Blair represent neoliberalism pretty well, Trump is basically the opposite. Thatcher's denationalization was pretty dope, but she did some shitty stuff too

Le Pen is plotted on the exact same spot that they plotted Adolf Hitler, yeah she's somewhat authoritarian but she's certainly not a totalitarian fascist calling for a continental wide genocide, and people still take that website seriously?

I highly doubt that a) Le Pen went there to amuse herself (or anyone else for that matter) and b) that she would barge into their actual living rooms uninvited (unless she's so daft that she would do it to incite violence against herself... I wouldn't be surprised if she did, but I still don't see that as very likely)
