He's not my guy. Honestly I don't know what else people need to see this is a blatant attempt by Le Pen and Russia to influence the election.

I'd argue there's still no 'proper' definition. As with any ideology or movement, it's difficult, and frankly counterproductive to try to define in specific terms. It means specific things to specific people; some would balk at the notion that every Trump voter or every Le Pen voter is part of the alt-right, others would be more than happy to include them — and that goes for people both inside and outside the movement.	europe	French politics	annotator02	Non-Moral	Confident

Le Pen's father is the Vichy apologist. I dislike Marine Le Pen but she isn't literally a Nazi and a big reason why she got 20% of the vote is precisely because she's tried to be a more moderate version of her father.	europe	French politics	annotator02	Equality	Somewhat Confident
Fillon will not satisfy anyone but those who are pro-status quo, which isn't a large group it seems, since Fillon is the only candidate that is basically more or less pro-status quo.

I agree with the statement, the assessment of the situation and have come to the same conclusion way before it became a popular notion in France or Germany. It's not rocket science, it's pretty damn obvious. Or would you claim that Macron somehow won with the majority of French people honestly backing him and not simply voting against Le Pen. That, in the case of paralysis, they would agree to give him another chance after Hollande failed, after Sarkozy failed?	europe	French politics	annotator02	Non-Moral	Confident
I looked this one up, it appears that Christians don't really have/wear any conspicuous religious symbols, but large crosses would also be banned by Le Pen. Who is the party that supports religious liberty in the US, maybe something like a Religious Liberties Executive Order that would “promote free speech and religious liberty”.

Melenchon and Le Pen really aren't terribly far away from eachother, policy wise. Plenty of anti-EU moderates who voted Melenchon now have a decision to make.

What you are talking about was in Fillon's program. Macron wants workers to negotiate working time and payment with their employers through unions, instead of it being fixed in the law. This will affect their overtime but for 20 hours per month, what they will lose on the overtime surplus will be largely compensated by the removal of the habitation tax and the lower CSG.

Nah, you just have to redraw the grid and label the center "neoliberalism."

It certainly needs truly democratic institutions, which would decide where the EU goes (with countries that agree, and those who don't can keep the statu quo or go back even further) instead of treaties drafted between national leaders unconnected from the populations with the economic ideology of Germany.

He's not my guy. Honestly I don't know what else people need to see this is a blatant attempt by Le Pen and Russia to influence the election. I'm not whining, I'm complaining about what I suspect is a foreign power interfering in our democracy, and a presidential candidate being possibly associated to it, which is pretty damn close to treason if you ask me. Not that it's a surprise for a party founded by collaborationists and Nazis.

I'd argue there's still no 'proper' definition. As with any ideology or movement, it's difficult, and frankly counterproductive to try to define in specific terms. It means specific things to specific people; some would balk at the notion that every Trump voter or every Le Pen voter is part of the alt-right, others would be more than happy to include them — and that goes for people both inside and outside the movement.

Le Pen's father is the Vichy apologist. I dislike Marine Le Pen but she isn't literally a Nazi and a big reason why she got 20% of the vote is precisely because she's tried to be a more moderate version of her father.

Fillon will not satisfy anyone but those who are pro-status quo, which isn't a large group it seems, since Fillon is the only candidate that is basically more or less pro-status quo. And then there's the whole "he's Thatcherite" thing, but that kind of pales in comparison to what others want to do IMO.

I agree with the statement, the assessment of the situation and have come to the same conclusion way before it became a popular notion in France or Germany. It's not rocket science, it's pretty damn obvious. Or would you claim that Macron somehow won with the majority of French people honestly backing him and not simply voting against Le Pen. That, in the case of paralysis, they would agree to give him *another* chance after Hollande failed, after Sarkozy failed?

I looked this one up, it appears that Christians don't really have/wear any conspicuous religious symbols, but large crosses would also be banned by Le Pen. Who is the party that supports religious liberty in the US, maybe something like a Religious Liberties Executive Order that would “promote free speech and religious liberty”. I wonder if Le Pen would support that? Probably too far left for her taste.

Melenchon and Le Pen really aren't terribly far away from eachother, policy wise. Plenty of anti-EU moderates who voted Melenchon now have a decision to make.

What you are talking about was in Fillon's program. Macron wants workers to negotiate working time and payment with their employers through unions, instead of it being fixed in the law. This will affect their overtime but for 20 hours per month, what they will lose on the overtime surplus will be largely compensated by the removal of the habitation tax and the lower CSG. And don't forget the fact that overtime will not be taxed anymore.

Nah, you just have to redraw the grid and label the center "neoliberalism." If you actually read the survey, Clinton and Sanders supporters had basically the same opinions on government intervention and inequality. Where they differed most was on the perception that the political system is "rigged." So to bring the modal Sanders supporter into the fold, the Democratic Party doesn't need to adopt Socialism, it needs someone like Macron who can present themselves as a reformist outsider while not scaring moderates. All my priors are intact, phew.

It certainly needs truly democratic institutions, which would decide where the EU goes (with countries that agree, and those who don't can keep the statu quo or go back even further) instead of treaties drafted between national leaders unconnected from the populations with the economic ideology of Germany. I must say, even if I voted Mélenchon, that I was quite attracted to Hamon's (Piketty's, in fact) projects of a Eurozone assembly, which would have been able to take fiscal decisions and end austerity.
