qcop [they/them]

You are uninformed on France politics and especially Mélenchon. He is not communist. He was a Trotskyist when he was very young but then pivoted and joined the socialist party. He held the education ministry under Chirac/Jospin government and is a committed reformist. He truly thinks election are the way to reform the current system.

FI is not classified as far left by any organism with credibility. The current FI program is less radical than the one from Mitterrand back when he won the presidency (no nationalization for example). The program is a social democrat/Keynesian one.

Despite this I still think hes the best chance for France and I think hes more radical than what their program lets on.

He also has some weird nostalgia for France imperialism claiming that he is proud France is present in all oceans for example (Thanks to France’s colonies)

Having said all that I’m really fond of the guy and what he did to preserve the left in France and raise a generation of more radical militants through his Parti de Gauche and then La France Insoumise.

My brain did not even register the typo and just read it as “stochastic”

true

That’s the term I was missing, thanks.

They are hoping to push someone who would believe them to murder him aren’t they?
