    Do you think western governments realize that there is a slowly growing disillusionment with democracy in their populations and that their increasingly erratic bullshit is feeding it?

      As long as the politics in the crisis go right they’ll be fine; it’s just another round of primitive accumulation

      I think they do, they just don’t care. Why would they? They have offshores and backup houses and shit. Even in case of public unrest, it will most likely be anti-socialist, so the bourgeoisie will remain in power, even if some talking heads change

      Well, they are meant to be punished for it at the next election. The problem is the media makes everything a big scandal when not all of it is.

      In this case he’s subverting the will of the people, so he should be destroyed at the ballot. However the division and rise of the far right means it could short that way too. Those who shifted left last time might shift back having shown their discontent.

      He’s saying he doesn’t want Parliament to have a no confidence vote, bit if there is non stable government as voted, that’s what is supposed to happen. Then return for election again.

    Macron aiming to have RN in government to prove that they are bad in order to boost his chances for presidential reelection. Ended up having to cooperate in supporting a tiny right wing party along with RN meaning that his party will be equally blamed. RN can just grandstand in parliament and have the power to block legislation while being politically rehabilitated.

    Masterful gambit Mr Macron.
