I heard Mélenchon wants a 100% tax on the rich. I don't know if that's true, but I'm just going to pretend it is because it absolutely rules.

He does. In a shocking turn of events the time people remember fondly in the UK the top rate of tax was 90% because its good for society



The highest non-wartime tax rate on the top bracket for the United States was 91% in 1954.

He's right though. Americans are the least qualified to run the world, and yet we bear the most influence upon it. If you don't resent that, then you're a rube.

You don't fight the far right from the far left, its madness.

You're only saying this because you would've endorsed Le Pen if Melenchon had gotten into the second round.

I admire her as a person even if I don't admire her politics. She looks as prime-ministerial as a person possibly can. She's magnificent.



She seems very earnest and hard-working. She spent an almost unprecedentedly long time in one of the most demanding and vitally important roles in the British government, Home Secretary, and parlayed that into leadership of her whole nation.

The fact that she and nigel farage are some of the most effective and influential britons in a generation is not an indictment of them, it is an indictment of britain.

You're a few drinks away from calling her mommy.

The idea that Macron's campaign intentionally leaked documents is giving them way too much credit. It's more than likely that they were legitimately hacked, and that the documents were boring and inconsequential garbage.

My favorite part about the last week is how the /pol/ trolls didn't understand that French nationalists hate English.


This is stupid.

yeah, that's absolutely a plus and a better outcome than what happened in eg the US. but im not convinced that treating the symptom (discarding the brands of the mainstream parties because of their crumbling popularity) rather than the cause (the mainstream parties becoming unpopular by repeatedly doubling down on horrifically unpopular austerity policies and looking corrupt and insensitive to voters' concerns) will prove an effective long-term strategy

Surely leading individuals can just keep creating new parties from the ashes of the old ones, like Macron and Melenchon did, forever
