French Presidential elections

[treelover]

You have to wonder at what kind of puddle drinking scumbag would be unhappy at fascists losing? What goes through the mind of someone so twisted with hate and desire for violence that this is seen as a bad thing.
But then again most people in the UK will be revealed at this outcome. Its only the BNP, UKIP and a tiny fringe of mentally unbalanced hard left freaks that think differently.
Perspective and all that.

are you aware of the political histories of many you accuse on here?, disgusting.

You're not soundng all that mentally balanced yourself.

Mostly it just talks to itself, inventing positions no one holds in order to appear superior. Cribbed One with less verbosity

The liberals seem to have been in a state of hysteria since last June.

its the russian hackers messing with them again.

They've clearly messed up this time.

Longer than that, surely

 

[ferrelhadley]

Hands up who is glad the fascists were defeated.
*raises hand*

Go sober up.

 

[ferrelhadley]

Go sober up.

So thats one no.

 

[DotCommunist]

hands up whose glad to see the anti-fash vote turned out but is concerned that what macron is planning will exacerbate the social conditions that far rightists (who are already strong in france) will get to exploit. It was a result, but its only kicked a can down the road

*hand up*

Bit half- hearted there, feral

[ferrelhadley]

Another no.

 

[Treacle Toes]

Hands up who is glad the fascists were defeated.
*raises hand*

Do you actually believe anyone here wanted Le Pen to win?

 

[Pickman's model]

Another no.

No, you made that up

 

[treelover]

is that Editor?

 

[RD2003]

is that Editor?

I don't know. I thought it was an archetype.

I love archetypes.

 

[Pickman's model]

is that Editor?

No. Editor rather aulder than that

[SpookyFrank]

Does it seem odd to anyone else that they have pretty much announced the results before the votes have been counted?

Is this your first election?

 

[SpookyFrank]

Hands up who is glad the fascists were defeated.
*raises hand*

And when did you stop beating your wife?

 

[Mr Moose]

You think many of the voters endorsed Macron, they just held their noses to vote against Le Pen.

I don't think that for a moment. It's right they are sceptical of him.

Considering this has already happened once in France, helping create this whole Le Pen 2.0 situation in the first place, it doesn't seem like all that much of a stretch.

 

[RD2003]

Pyrrhic victories always seem great at first.

I think some people get very confused about who the real enemy is. They get so sucked into a world of hating "liberals" (a meaningless term) so sucked into spouting bollox on the internet they have long since lost any sense of perspective.

For a lot of people on this forum politics is a game or a life style accessory. I almost never say anything about myself as a person. Folk here attack me as being "middle class" and other pish. I spent most of my late teens and twentys as a manual labourer. I grew up for some of my life in some of the most deprived parts of Scotland. I heard what peoples politics were, what their worries were what their daily chat was.

Much of the bollox on Urban sounds like what my middle class friends spout on Facebook, not what I will hear in a pub back up visiting my family.

For the pickmans and company on here its all a a fucking game. Poking "liberal" in the eye. "Look how radical I am". "I am going to pretend to be planning a revolution while on an internet forum"

And while "the left" is pishing around with their world of warcraft rollplaying being all radical online Shettleston voted a fucking tory.

The defeat of an outright race baiting scum bag is an unquestioned victory. When that monster is let loose out the box folk will have a bit of a different view to the differences between the French left and right, or the British one for that matter. "Blame that dark skinned person", "blame the weirdo who prays different", "your problems are all the Polish guys fault". So easy.

The Left's (aka left of Labour) complete disconnect with working peoples daily lives is abundantly reflected in their virtual non existence in elections, the right have a very fucking seductive alternative. I am pleased from the very top of my hair to the toe nails on my feet that these cunts are rejected. I have unalloyed joy the monster is not yet out the box. You can make argument for more re-distributive societies, fairer taxation and more common ownership of common assets when the arguments are between right and left on economic points. That all tends to get drowned out when arguing who is racially allowed to be part of society.

Sorry posted that without any comment .
don't know what size the sample was but Le Pen picks up the majority of the blue collar vote. Just seen another map which clearly shows her support in the northern industrial areas.

Not everyone is tho. Plenty on here felt not voting was the better choice. Now they are glad someone else did?

But what have you got to say about the fact-yes, fact-that Macron will only continue along the road that sees Le Pen's support base (which would once have been a large part of the support base of socialism etc etc) grow further?
