    Macron doesn’t hate the far right because he shares quite a lot of ideas with them. His career is over, he doesn’t care what people think now. He is with them

      The status quo is not politically neutral.

      The status quo mildly dislikes the far right - on the other hand, the status quo despises anything left.

        Depends who you think of when you say status quo. I’d say the left is popular in many urban areas (radical left in modest neighborhoods and environmentalist/social-democrats for the rest), but the far rights reaps almost every rural area.

          I’d disagree on that.

          I live in a poor rural area (Combrailles - Puys de Dôme) and the area is firmly left. The NFP went first in 3 of the 4 districts in my department.

          Before that I lived for a few years in an area that was waaay richer (Nièvre, a zone with a lot of big cereal agri-businesses) and it was consistently right wing.

          It’s a bit more complicated than urban/peri-urban/rural or generational divides. Even if these components each are important in their own right ^^

      He literally allied with them multiple times.

      He’s a right wing cunt like any other idk why people call him a centrist.
