France: penned in

...

If I was supposed to ''read' this thread instead of just open spoilered pictures….

I thought leftypol would like Le Pen. She actually is more to the left on economic issues than Fillon.

yeah i remember Holla Forums pulling for marco rubio too

Trump was to the left of Rubio tbqh

Only on trade, he is pretty neoliberal outside of that.

She's too spooky for me personally.

by the person i responded too's logic, he should have been supported just for being on the left of any single other repubican

No…

I kind of think she will too

She's centre left nationalist
Like a nazbol
- French socialist patiriot who will vote for Le Pen :-)

...

Protectionist =/= leftist

dood just liek combine your 15% with Melonchink's 10% and you gt 25%! you can win this, make France communist.

Wow, right wing parties get traction. What a surprise. Hopefully all the neoliberals will be dead in 10-15 years when the nationalism fad is over so left wing parties can become legitimate again.

le nazbol meme is going a little far now guys

Why not just boycotting the elections? There is already mass abstentionism, if we can give it a political content then it will be Nuit Debout : No more liberals boogaloo.

That's the plan.
They also wanted to get rid of Valls, so that he won't steal votes from Marcon (he's basically the Clinton of France, media loves him).
Now with Fillon getting one scandal after another it looks pretty much like LePen vs Marcon. Basically a redux of the American elections.

THE FUCKING LIBERALS THINK BY DOING THE SAME THINGS THEY GET DIFFERENT RESULTS.
THEY HAVE LEARNED ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. THE FUCKING ARROGANCE.

Le Pen will win inshalla

Le benis must win

that picture triggered my gender dysphoria :/

If anyone's interested, the below is a quote from the PDF attached (page 80) about crises under Capitalism. The entire section is pretty relevant if you keep up with this guy's blog, as the arguments go into a lot more detail.

"61. Following Marx, one should attempt to locate the barriers to capital accumulation in the sphere of production. To do this, an orientation on the most important goal of capitalist produc­tion is important, namely the realisation of the highest possible rate of profit. For an individual capital, profit rates serve as a measure of its valorisation. The rise and fall of profit rates is thus like a seismograph of capitalist development. Marx’s supposition of the tendency of the average rate of profit to fall in relation to its countertendencies is a reasonable starting point in the discussion of a fundamental tendency of capitalism towards crisis. If this crisis-proneness is explained in terms of the contradictory interaction of tendencies and countertendencies, the idea is not then to claim that crisis happens automatically, but rather that crisis must be considered in historical-empirical terms (see Harman 1999a; Harvey 1982). Even if the tendency towards the increased concentration of capital (namely, high capital expenditures per workplace) has functioned historically as a root of crisis, determining the concrete causes and manifestations of crisis requires including additional crisis mechanisms.

In modern economies, for example, the problem of realising existing surplus value as profit has played a decisive role. It appears time and again as the absence of demand. Nevertheless, constraints on consumption cannot only be understood (in classical terms of under-consumption theory) as the limited solvency of working-class demand. Collective demand does not only consist of demand for consumer goods. Rather, it can also be ‘constrained’ by meagre demand for investment goods, as happens when corporations anticipate a low rate of profit (see Deutschmann 1973, pp. 161 et sq.). In this way, it is possible to arrive at an ‘overaccumulation’ of capital, that is, too much capital stands before too many unprofitable investments. On the level of the market, still other factors come into play, for example disproportionalities between and within individual economic sectors. The ‘anarchy’ of the market leads to a situation in which capital once again produces too many goods in relation to liquid demand for those goods (that is, a crisis of overproduction).

On the crisis-proneness in the credit and finance sectors, see Heinrich 2003a, pp. 367 et sq. In reality, it is the unity of economic, political, and ideological crisis that produces the truly ‘great’ crisis."
