      Nah the French Right are in a whole different space of weirdness from the American Right,

      Partially because, since France doesn’t run on FPTP, there’s a pluralism in the French right that there isn’t in the US.

      You might remember headlines about some guy attacking Macron during a public appearance, apparently that guy was part of the French Monarchist movement, who aren’t connected to national front IIRC as an example.

        It’s a trend with women world wide where as men have more or less remained the same or gone slightly more conservative.

      Has been since at least the 80s

      The UK has entirely fallen to our greed disease as we metastasize eastward. Germany is on board, the French are still fighting admirably as they always do when it comes to class conflict at least.

      I hang my head in shame over the greed disease we are exporting regularly.

      “YOU and your family can live larger than you ever dreamed possible, all you have to do is sell out your countrymen for capital exploitation…come on…money money…”

      -The venomous call to political and economic power from the US

      All it takes is time and weak people devoid of basic decency sitting in the right chairs at the time.

      The American propaganda machine has always been effective. And now it’s global.
