You can't transition from overt to covert racist. It only works in the other direction.

He went full Holocaust denial. You're supposed to go halfway like Marine and agree that the Holocaust happened but claim France wasn't culpable at all.

I'm spitballing here but I'd guess state sponsored full time hacking with developed tools like the us and russia run is vastly more effective than some dude in a basement, especially if the vulnerabilities often start from wide net low probability attacks.

I am to the left of many centrists but also find many of the Actual Left to be egregiously stupid splitters who would be better served inside large parties like PS or Labour in the UK rather than insisting on ideological purity which means they can deliver their sometimes good ideas to absolutely no-one, hope that helps.

I don't think it makes you a hideous secret neoliberal to think that LO/FI/S&P/NPA/PS etc. etc. should not have all run pretty similar platforms that stopped any of them getting into the second round.

traditional socdem parties are getting hollowed out across the globe, but they keep their status as the establishment centre-left & so prevent other parties from coming up. might be a long term good thing if the ps collapses, at least then the rest will be able to genuinely compete with each other for space.

frictionaless capital flow combined with fractured uncooperative jurisdictions means that regulating capitalism is difficult

unfortunately, globalization now means transnational, undemocratic organizations override the original mandate of nation-states (localized affinity group democracy)

the reason borders matter is because it delineates the property of the affinity group and that property is effectively power to effect change through the vote

when there were capital exchange controls, we could control capital inflow and shackle our capitalists to a locality

now that's increasingly going away and capital is international but

states are local

their reach is small

so everything is going to poo poo

Thus the drive that the portion of the populous who are losing on this agreement from that system, with the only ones providing both a explanatory world view and a promise to rectify the problems being right-wing nationalistic populists.

Pray for the death of the social democratic parties and the rise of more radical left movements.
