    In a time when avoiding a far right government should be his first concern, I strangely mostly read about him shooting against the left

    That’s because the left has also been shooting mostly against his government as well, while ignoring the far right.

      The French left has been consistently fighting the far right, vocally so, even withdrawing candidates in favor of Macron against the far right. What are you even talking about?

        What the guy you reply to said is factually incorrect. While the French left despises Macron and his clique, they did withdraw candidates in the last election in his favor to keep the fascists out of power.

        And they’ve always been vocal about their contempt for the far right.
