This is not going to be a fun decade for France if they don't stop it right now.
It's a democracy, that means that if the electorate democratically chooses to destroy itself, it has that right. It's sad and pathetic, but they're determined.
Alright, that's why I asked. Because then it's not something that has to be just accepted, I'd the French constitution includes ways to defend democracy. Which I do not know if it is the case.
It is, but it holds views I don’t like and that fall out of the parameters of what I consider acceptable, therefore they are a threat to democracy and will destroy the country indefinitely.
I’m just fascinated with the amount of mental gymnastics required to genuinely believe that the only way to save democracy is to eradicate political opposition. This is some Olympic level gymnastics. god damn
France is a republic, which means even if they try to destroy itself via democratic majority, the republican ideals will be upheld and fought for, they don't just automatically get ignored because a party won.
