To gauge the population's engagement and what representations and (proportions of representations) of classes the parties in parliament have mobilized and from where. To use as a central point of political agitation and analysis. To be where the masses are, most of whom still believe in parliamentary politics, to, under communist banners, help mobilize inside of these large political upswells of energy to agitate for communism and throw weight behind the left in these coalitions (while maintaining freedom of propaganda and agitation to criticize), to show exactly this; to prove to the mobilized masses through their own lived political experience why we are right and why bourgeois democracy is not the answer, and that liberals will side with fascists before they give the left an inch.
This is honestly an incredible victory assuming the communists in France have read their Lenin and have been agitating to expect this (which, both from a history standpoint and just knowing that weird smarmy gnome Macron, is not hard to anticipate); I can't think of a better gift to the communists of France than Macron doing this and now creating a large portion of people who realize that bourgeois democracy is not a pathway to a better world, but an impediment to it. As well as instill a realization in people the true nature of liberalism and liberal politicians in capitalist politics in a more effective way than any propaganda ever could (which the propaganda is only to prompt thought and awareness and show who was right in their analysis to those who then live, or did live the political experience of this and witness it, it takes the experience to change the perspective of the masses)
what even is the point of having elections if elections ultimately won't get you the kind of government people wanted
people wanted a leftist government this time around and yet his dumb arse decided to veto that shit 😒
it's a circus for the hoi polloi to make them feel like they have a stake in politics
that's... depressing. i wish they managed to wake up from it and realize bougie democracy isn't going to solve their problems :\
indeed
