Interesting that even if Le Pen has a much greater chance of winning than in 2017, the world isn't freaking out as much.

2017 was just a year after the Trump and Brexit victories. There was very much a feeling and a media narrative at the time that the conservative and nationalist (far-)right was an unstoppable force that would sweep every election the Western world.

Today that fear/belief has been discredited and while we still see strong performances from the Trumpist sorts of candidates/parties, it has been proven in elections not only that left-wing and centrist candidates or parties can still win elections, but also that the far-right can loose ground and loose support.
