Pension reform i.e. raising the retirement age largely hits younger voters. If you’re already retired then it makes no difference to you.

More generally, Macron is basically the liberal-conservative centre-right candidate now, and has inherited the electorate which votes for such a thing (older, middle class etc).

That makes sense. I think I was surprised because of how widely the 2019 and 2023 pension reforms were covered in English media and the 50-59 year old demographic which would be the most immediately effected.
