Melenchon vs Le Pen. Who do you vote for?

[buritobr]

If the opinion on Putin was the only issue to evaluate if a politician is good or bad, Chega, Vox, Fratelli d'Italia and Milei would be fine

[Horus]

Both are pro Putin, but Melenchon is better in almost every other way.

[jaichind]

Le Pen.  There are reasons for me to like Melenchon on foreign policy but overall Len Pen

[AtorBoltox]

Melenchon is not a 'social democrat,' don't be ing ridiculous. Anyway, for anyone looking for a candidate who stands strongly against demagoguery and racism and against Putin there is no good choice here.

[Sic Semper Fascistis]

La Pen. She knows radical Islam is the source of problems in the world.

You're back! And wow...that's quite the take...

Good thing I recently cleared some room on my ignore list.

Folks voting for the daughter of a Holocaust denier, allied with a Pétain apologist, to own le anti-Semitic left, are really telling on themselves and revealing their true motives.

She’s literally renounced her own father and also participated in a march against anti semitism while Melenchon did this

For the first time ever, a major demonstration being attended by representatives of the major political parties includes the far right - but not the far left.

On Sunday afternoon thousands of people heeded a call from the Speakers of the two houses of parliament to show their support for French "Republican" values and their rejection of antisemitism - this in the face of a steep rise in antisemitic actions since 7 October.

Among the first to announce their presence were Marine Le Pen, three-time presidential candidate for the National Rally (formerly the National Front), and the party's young president, Jordan Bardella.

Almost simultaneously came a rejoinder from their counterpart on the far left, Jean-Luc Mélenchon, irascible leader of France Unbowed (LFI). His party would not be attending, he tweeted, because the march was a "rendezvous for unconditional supporters of the massacre [of Gazans]".

Maybe you should ask why the far left is so hated by so many liberals as well .

Classic OSR spamming of the same ineffective point.

DeSantis, Modi, Le Pen - which fascist are you getting in the tank for next?

None of them are fascists and funny how you just conveniently ignored the rest of my post  .

Also I love how you brought up Modi here in the same post your calling Le Pen a fascist because of her father’s sins . In that case then Rahul Gandhi is also a fascist to given who his grandma was but expecting consistently from progressives is laughable

Anyway the answer to this is Chairman Sanchez

I don't know what to make of Melenchon.

He objected to flying the EU flag on the grounds its designer was inspired by devotion to the Virgin Mary.  https://www.irishtimes.com/news/world/europe/french-far-left-leader-s-tongue-gets-him-in-hot-water-1.3255339

Was he really concerned about such a thing, or was it an opportunistic objection?   

[Dr. Cynic]

Melenchon is infinitely preferable to Le Pen, even if I don't like him all that much. I will not vote for any National Front piece of sh**t.

[buritobr]

Almost all the french political spectrum, from the Communist Party to Marine Le Pen, joined the rally against anti-semitism. Mélenchon didn't join. The refusal of Mélenchon to participate doesn't make him an anti-semitic. He might have though that this rally could fuel the narrative that the protests against the Israeli military operation in Gaza and the palestine campings in western universities are anti-semitic.
