    My prediction: Emmanuel Macron’s Ensemble alliance will ally with the National Rally to stop New Popular Front from doing much at all.

        I’ll take garden variety disagreements about economic policies over power seizure any day of the week. Compromise and not getting all the things you want is a hallmark of a healthy democracy.

        This is how low the bar is and I lay 100% blame on authoritarians more interested in grabbing power than compromising themselves.

          Democracy is when everything sucks and gets worse every year while centrists keep eyeing Nazis as possible better allies than the left.

          If you force the government to improve society in any what you’re an “authoritarian” (oooh, how scary. btw, I’m pretty sure “authoritarian” as a cudgel against the left that equates them to the right is against board rules).

      They don’t need to ally. They can just drag their feet to sabotage any significant reforms and wait for the left to lose their mandate
