It’s good that they keep the class struggle going, but no, not really. I’ve heard many protesters think the further right La Pen is the best alternative to Macron. The protests have died down too and now they’re only doing them like once a week.
The same hopelessly naive people who still keep holding out hope for anti-imperialism from a right wing populist orientation (because the western "left" in general has thoroughly betrayed the working class and adopted a rabidly pro-imperialist, pro-neoliberal position) were severely disappointed when Giorgia Meloni of Italy turned out to be just another EU and NATO bootlicker except with the added "flavor" of turning the xenophobia and the fascist nostalgia to 11.
Why they still believe (or pretend) that Le Pen would be some kind of brave anti-NATO, anti-EU champion of the working class baffles me. This is what happens when you remain mired in idealism, you get things wrong over and over again and you wonder how come. Whereas anyone with an ounce of understanding of how to analyze things using a dialectical materialist framework could have told them that right wing opportunists will never live up to their expectations.
Also i remember how just in 2019-21 i heard all the time how much "anti-EU" and even "anti-US" is polish PiS, few times somebody even projected polexit and Poland warming to Russia and Belarus. My answer was: no fucking way, it's all pretended to force more concessions from EU, like Britain did for years, and in reality the two of three legs of IIIRP being russophobia and servilism to US will trample everything, beside EU is still popular in Poland.
I wasn't even fucking glad to be correct about PiS again because not only nearly every time i expect the worst from them i am usually correct but this fucking time they completely overshoot the worst predictions by lightyears. Anyone who should have any illusion about them after 2022 is just a terminal moron.
