      In December 2013, she said in a speech to the US–Ukraine Foundation [uk] that the U.S. had invested over $5 billion on democratic skills and institutions, civic participation, and good governance in Ukraine since 1991.

        The real problem is when you are only left with the choice between centrist neoliberal billionaire bootlickers, pro russian far right billionaire bootlickers or pro russian leftists (who you at least hope are not billionaire bootlickers).

              But where’s the hope coming from if you, as in the video above, can clearly see that they absolutely love to lick that boot squeaky clean?

                They’re licking Putins boot more because he’s the russian dictator, not because he’s rich. Also, I’m not French and the german Left is not explicitly licking Putin’s boot at all, they’re just weirdly fixated on not fighting anybody under any circumstances, which I still believe they can be woken up from. If I can get a meaningful wealth tax out of them, I’m willing to work from there.

                  They’re licking Putins boot more because he’s the russian dictator, not because he’s rich.

                  The difference being? Both being a dictator and being rich are leading to the same thing: being powerful; and that’s the sole reason to get one’s boots licked.

                  and the german Left is not explicitly licking Putin’s boot at all

                  “At all” is probably a bit bold of a claim. Granted, with Wagenknecht leaving ship and taking her most avid followers with her, the most prominent “Russian” voice in that party is gone. But you still find a remarkably strong foundation of sympathies towards Russia in that party. No other normal party is as soft on Russia as them. That weird fixation of not giving Ukraine any weapons at all is exactly testament of trying to appease this part of the party that might have gotten quieter but still exists, while still fulfilling the expectations of especially the new influx of members/voters that are no longer filled with these crude nostalgic sympathies. I hope the Linke can overcome this but only time will tell.

      Only if you’re not paying attention to the party, they always eagerly fit into the worst clichês of far-left. Always siding with dictators, Islamic terrorists, antissemitic propaganda etc… really much more similar to the RN then they’re supporters like to admit.

        I’ve listened to Mélenchon when he came to Montreal, and I’ve listened to a few of his discours online afterwards. I did not hear any of the things you’re describing. I also don’t trust the accusations you’re making because it’s exactly the kind of shit neoliberal centrists have been accusing the Left of since the Iraq War, all the while actually doing all of the same things in practice. So I’m giving LFI the benefit of the doubt in general and I’m disappointed about this in particular.

          Jean-Luc Mélenchon is not a stupid man. He is never going to say something completely illegal. He uses dogwhisles. And you only those dogwhisles if you are fully paying attention.

          I’ll give you a few examples.

          The Omar Mosque

          French police raided the Mosque Omar in the 11th district of Paris.

          Immediatly, Melenchon posted this on social media:

          Everyone in French intelligence heard about the Omar Mosque in the 11th district of Paris. And not in a good way.

          This is considered one of the most extreme mosque in France.

          In fact, the Omar Mosque had this reputation for decades

          Mélenchon doesn’t give a fuck. He made a tweet that spread like wildfire about the evil police humiliating muslims. He gains votes.

          I’ll give you another example.

          He publically accused journalist Ruth El Krief of insulting Islam/Muslims

          You can criticize Ruth El Krief on a lot of things. And that’s fine. But she never insulted Islam or Muslims. Never.

          Jean-Luc Mélenchon knows that. He posted this message accusing her of insulting Islam right in the beginning of the Gaza crisis. While a lot of muslims are shocked and horrified.

          By publically accusing a Jewish figure of disrespecting Islam, he can appear as “the defender” of humiliated muslims. He gains many votes.

          Because of his tweet, El Krief received thousands of messages threatening to cut her throat. She now lives under police protection:

          This man knows exactly what he is doing.

            Thank you, the evil this man spreads is not shared enough. He’s at least as hateful and toxic as Le Pen, both terrible for France and Europe. We can thank them both for another delay with the Mercosur deal, just to give a recent example. Putin puppets is just the start of their evilness.

          oh, these extremist dudes always love a strong man that shouts loud and aggressively… left or right, the psychological mechanism is exactly the same, the end result also: violence and racism.

    Is it just me, or does it look AI generated? Here are the things that look off:

    • The wind is blowing the flag, but not her hair (it remains perfectly still for the entire duration).
    • The tree leaves in the background look like they are phasing/blending when they move with the wind?
    • The woman holding the phone in the right of this video seems to be attempting to record, but is not pointing the camera in a reasonable direction?
    • There is almost nothing going on in the video apart from the main character.
    • They are standing in the woods with speakers at a rally?? Why not in the city? And even a park in the city should have some cityscape in the background?
    • Did this happen recently? Green leafy trees are not in season in France yet, I believe?
    • Behind the woman that is trying to film, there is a flag in the beginning to the video that seems to walk away by itself? And towards the end of the video the woman behind the woman recording is walking away the same direction, and you can see her head (height disparity with whoever would potentially be carrying the aforementioned flag).

    Anyone have other independent sources on this event?

    Edit: Added things that looks weird.

    That’s Sophie Chikirou of La France Insoumise (LFI), the leading French left-wing populist party. Apparently, she’s also in a relation with the party’s founder and long-term leader Jean-Luc Mélenchon, so also quite ‘prominent’.

        They’re so obsessed with ‘overcoming the system’ that they don’t care whatsoever who to share the bed with to - allegedly - reach that goal.

        That their great benefactor doesn’t want them to reach their - or any - goal at all but just plays them like a puppet master to sow constant dissent, is beyond their scope of understanding. Useful idiots.
