Globalism v Nationalism – Last Weekend Hungary, Tomorrow France Round One
Last weekend it was the Hungarian election that surfaced as the first contest between globalism -vs- nationalism in the “post-COVID” era. This weekend it is the election in France that will indicate how the French people feel about similar issues of the totalitarian, fascist or corporate state, ie. “globalism.”
There are a multitude of parties and coalitions in France represented by multiple candidates. However, if no candidate wins 50% of the total vote tomorrow, only the top two candidates will advance to the second round national election on April 24th. Those top two candidates are likely to be current French President Emmanuel Macron (globalist wing) and Marine Le Pen (nationalist wing).
Currently Macron holds around 25% and Le Pen around 23% (individually) for the first round, with multiple candidates holding smaller percentages of the remaining vote. Therefore, it is almost certain that Macron and Le Pen will advance to a head-to-head matchup on April 24th. That’s when things will really become important for the larger battle of globalism v nationalism.
The two candidates have faced off before; however, this time pandemic response by Emmanuel Macron could likely tilt the election in favor of Le Pen.
SIDEBAR – I predict we will see Barack Obama enter the French presidential election again, as an influence agent, between Monday of next week and April 24th, just as he did the last time in order to try and convince the French people to stick with Macron. Foreign interference in national elections (think Russia interfering in U.S. elections) is a horrible thing, a terrible threat to democracy, except when the U.S. globalists need it.
When the U.S. leftists, democrats, need to influence the Canadian election, suddenly election interference is a good thing. When the democrats need to influence the Mexico election, no big deal. When the U.S. leftists need to influence the French election, or Egyptian election, or Israeli election, or U.K. election, no biggie, no biggie, no biggie. Their hypocrisy is boundless when they know the media will let them pretend not to know things. Watch for it, I’ll bet one donut the U.S. will pull out all the stops to support Macron. I digress, back to the point of current France.
During his pandemic response Macron went totally overboard. He was the first one to announce (July 2021) that a vaccine passport would be needed in order to shop, drink, eat at restaurants, travel or worship. Many other western, fascist totalitarian dictators, the new democracy leaders, followed soon thereafter. Macron’s ideological fiats may come back to haunt him…. We can hope. The French people were not happy with this unilateral decision and it showed people how quickly some leaders will become dictators.
