Melenchon

not sure if Holla Forumsype or just uneducated.

the Front National existed long before the European union and it was still considered racist back then.

How could he end up winning?

Well, don't forget that Mélenchon is also critical of the EU and wants to renegotiate some European treaties.
I haven't watched the French mainstream medias in a long time, but some of them always dismiss his concerns with muh horseshoe theory.

I guess I was more hopeful three days ago.
But the PS now is dead, people know they are basic neoliberal politicians.
Fillon is socially like Le Pen, and economically neoliberal. Macron is extremely neoliberal and I don't think he is really popular because free-market fanatics are a minority in France, people here like their universal health-care.
So I think more left-wing voters will vote for him this time, since Manuel Valls won't trick us a second time with some leftist rhetorics (Hollande famously said in 2012 that finance was his enemy, and we were kinda convinced by that after 5 years of Sarkozy).

I would say that there is a chance we will have Le Pen vs. Mélenchon for the second tour.
But, yeah, more realistically, young people won't vote and baby boomers will choose our president for everyone else, as usual. And baby boomers want Fillon and Le Pen.

Wait a real commie? In bourgie politics? Is he not from the same party as 'socialist' Hollande?

He left the PS because it was not left enough. Or because it was a hindrance for his own ambitions depending on who you ask.

lmao. I can't wait to drink leftard tears in the coming election

exactly, and nobody calls him racist or or fascist.

so saying that there is a secret plot to discredit all anti-EU by calling them nazi is just Holla Forumstier retarded

...

People know Hollande is a goof. A huge part thinks he's a filthy socialist that increases taxes and loves towelheads.
Popular consciousness is still pretty dull.

If he gets more than PS, then it should be enough.

nah he's not a commie at all, just a keynesian soc-dem
the french communist party decided to support him for the french presidential elections though (but are they even real commies?)

Melenchon is really antisemitic so he can't be trusted.

he's been recently compared BOTH to le pen and the ussr on an interview in the news of the main french tv channel lol

Fuck off already

he seems more left wing than Corbyn

.

Is he /our guy/?

Jean-Luc Mélenchon has been chosen by the Elder God Kek to lead France towards the Sixth Republic. We have to meme him into power.

Totally our guy

Main points from Mélenchon platform:

- the French Fifth Republic is bad, it gives too much power to the president, so we should summon an assembly of citizens who will write a new constitution for a Sixth Republic (which will be ofc social, ecologist, feminist, and full communist), with ideas like direct democracy, male/female parity, and the possibility to revoke the politicians if they fuck up.

- go full green, make a x-years plan (the so-called "planification écologique") in order to go full renewable energy (no more nuclear power), put wind turbines in the sea (along with sea turbines ofc), and develop the sea economy in general (Mélenchon believes it will create a lot of jobs). Also, going full green agriculture will create lots of well-paid jobs :^) And people should eat less meat, but I don't know how he's gonna do that.

- renegotiate the European treaties and threaten to leave if porky wants to fuck with France

- retirement for 60 years old people and 35 hours of work per week for workers (as it was before Hollande and Sarkozy fucked everything). Also, the recent law that destroyed the Labour Code will be revoked.

- create more "lycées professionnels", ie schools that produce proletarians with a high level of education (for state-of-the-art industry, such as green agriculture and making pipes).

- also, european space programs and computerz are noice (he said something in his speeches about "the frontiers of the modern world: the sea, outer space and the cyberspace", dunno if it leads to concrete politics though)

He also published a book detailing his platform but I haven't bought it yet. What I have written above is what I recall from his speeches.

If even half of that is true, definitely /our guy/

Look at his program: unconditional support of Green - if light of German fiasco - and creation of shitty Lyceums that produce one-trick ponies instead of improving overall quality of education to Ecole level (any Socialist worth his salt would've went for polytechnic education).

He is a Populist, like Bernie (and Corbyn).

What I'm somewhat confused by is his banking reform.

Great endorsement from our favourite Stalin-stache.

Be smartass all you want. Everyone knows how this will end anyway.

He promised to summon a constituent assembly right after he is elected. If he doesn't do it, he'll be in big trouble.

gotta wear a condom cause the black hos have aids

How old is messi in this picture? 19? Surely he doesn't look like that anymore

Does he like Huey Lewis and the News?

Seems pretty simple to me. Gradually phase out private banking and replace it with public banking. He's a reformist, not a revolutionary.

get aids and die faggot

oh and sorry for my bad english, not my native tounge. thanks!

These anons are right I was wrong but not bc I'm black

I'm smashed as weklv soul friend

Ehh fuck it, all I'm doing is being autistic cringe in the SIM, a SPT threads

I'll write some wrestling green when it hits me.

shakespeare's first 17 sonnets

From fairest creatures we desire increase,
That thereby beauty’s rose might never die,
But as the riper should by time decease,
His tender heir might bear his memory:
But thou, contracted to thine own bright eyes,
Feed’st thy light’s flame with self-substantial fuel,
Making a famine where abundance lies,
Thyself thy foe, to thy sweet self too cruel.
Thou that art now the world’s fresh ornament
And only herald to the gaudy spring,
Within thine own bud buriest thy content
And, tender churl, mak’st waste in niggarding.
Pity the world, or else this glutton be,
To eat the world’s due, by the grave and thee.

What's it all about you've no idear

Sounds like a bad idea. Half of the attendees would probably be undercover agents. You're better off hosting a /k/ meetup in Sweden.

What makes you think she's a liberal ?

Just doing it again.

Not as big as he will get into if he tries to become Allende.

Melenchon seems like an actual commie hiding his actual power level very well.

Didn't even start and it's already shit

...

This one. Even French version would do.

How will you live with yourself when some nutjob takes this all seriously and someone in there gets killed?

It's time for Trump and Bill Gates to shut 8chin down.

19. Putting finance in check
Finance ran the real economy into the ground in 2008. It had to be the "opponent" of the outgoing president. It has never fared so well and shareholder returns have never been so high in France. Our country has the European record of paying dividends! New bubbles form and threaten of an even more terrible deflagration. It's time to act!

We propose to carry out the following measures:
- Separate investment and retail banks
- Controlling capital movements
- Introduce an effective tax on financial transactions
- Prohibiting over-the-counter agreement sales and securitization, caping leverage and exorbitant shareholder returns
- Identify and prohibit toxic derivatives which are unnecessary to the funding or hedging of real economic flows
- Initiate recovery procedures for the public money of € 2.2 billion granted without proof to Société Générale following the Kerviel affair, to evaluate comparable acts and to prosecute the culprits
