Macron had the option of forming a coalition with the leftists, who won a plurality of the seats. Instead, he joined forces with the nationalist party on the right.

"Ve can control zem."

That's a lie; Paul Von Hindenburg was an a outspoken Monarchist.

As Neil Gaiman once wrote in something entirely unrelated:

"'Time is fluid here,' said the demon."

Are Labour liberals? We have a Lib Dem party who I consider the liberal party, well I assume they are anyway.

Labour right now is just the Tory party from 12 years ago. So scumbags but only massive scumbags instead of gigantic scumbags.

Only in the sense that they still exist, and thus have never truly been defeated. Fascists and authoritarians have lost elections, and thus lost or never gained power... but fascism and authoritarianism still exist as concepts. The only real way to change that is to:

A. Completely remove the concept from public consciousness, which is nigh impossible and can always be thought of again

B. Kill anyone you suspect of harboring fascist or authoritarian thoughts. Which is the kind of thing people think when they say "that just makes you a fascist/authoritarian yourself".

You can not police thought unless you become that which you hate. You can help to foster an environment where those ideas seem silly and not worthwhile... bit not with swords or guns.

If you don't believe that you can have what you want with democracy, with freedom of choice, with elections and voting. That your only choice is to force others to see things your way with violence... then I have some bad news for you. You are the authoritarian.

You can not force people to be free at the tip of a bayonet. They have to choose it for themselves.

No they don’t, they don’t care about getting leftists to agree.

When they say they care about bipartisanship, they mean they want to agree with all the new far right stuff that would probably make them richer.
