    100% unprofessional take:

    From what I got by quickly screening his Wikipedia article he is a populist French politician on the left with a couple of views one view so bonkers most of us on the left don’t want to have people like him on the left.

    Great, we have a couple of those in Germany too. Have fun with that maniac.

    Edit: Made a mistake.

        You know what? I made a mistake. I saw his position on the Russian annexation of Crimea (which is bonkers) and his stance of France leaving NATO (which is straight up stupid) and I didn’t give the rest of the article enough attention. The overwhelming majority of what he stands for is actually pretty neat.

        Edit: Again. I have no idea about French politics so don’t quote me on this.
