    this and macron creating a conservative government despite leftists winning the most votes in france makes me wonder if a leftist victory is ever possible.

      Not the "proper" way, that way was designed to prevent a leftist victory from ever happening, and shutting it down if it does. However, history has shown that it's incredibly achievable once people get together and decide to stop playing the ruling class's games.

      Not through liberal "democracies" no, where the entire point is to keep capitalists in power. Unionizing and organizing for a revolution has always been the only way.
