People are calling the French parliamentary elections a Massive win for the left.

As someone that knows nothing about french politics it doesn't look that way to a layman.

New popular front (left) - 182 seats

Macron's centrist party - 163 seats 

National front (far-right) - 143 seats

Republicans (right) - 68 seats

Other left (not part of the NPF) - 11 seats 

Other - 10 seats.


Help me out here, but it still looks like Macron has a lot of power. If he works with the national front they have a majority together.

If he works with the new popular front they have a majority together.

But either way they both need macron's centrist party.

Why are people seemingly sure the left can implement their agenda? Eg. Macron will cave to the left?

Its America's 2020 all over again, we all crab-raved and paraded in the streets when Biden won, then proceeded to watch him over the course of 4 years do everything Trump tried to do. Wouldn't be surprised if all the leftists that got elected becomes status quo bootlickers when they're sworn in.

Wtf are you talking about? Watching 5min of French election coverage teaches you they have many party’s and 3 separate coalitions. America has two party’s: far right and center/center-right. 

I didn’t realize the American socialist party and its coalition won more seats than democrats and republicans

hasan covered it on stream and you're dead wrong. Fascism is winning across the world. If you only watched 5 mins of french election coverage for catharsis that's cool, but you're counting your eggs early. Let me know when they get  everything on their platform done  and invoke actual socialism in france. Not mixed market BS, actual socialism. Anything less is Liberalism and just as bad as before. What exactly does this election do to help those in Gaza? They can virtue signal all they want, but will they hold israel and the US accountable and end the genocide? I have a hard time believing so.

If they actually get anything done i'll admit i'm wrong gladly but dunking on me for being skeptical based on a long history of any and every leftist movement being shut down by the far right and liberals isn't in their favor.
