“Too bad”? This is a win for Macron. It means he can go on running the country on his own without having to worry about a prime minister.

This is the sort of thing that used to make people here exclaim, “Karl Rove, you magnificent bastard!”

“Toi, Emmanuel Macron, espèce de magnifique salaud!”

Actually, he was sent to Russia by the Germans to get the former out of the War, and by the time Lenin arrived, Kerensky already threw Nikolas II out and had a provisionary government in place. Lenin then screamed for another revolution, and then we got into all of that. And fascism, BTW, was a spinoff of Marxism, much like Social Marxism was (the very FOUNDER of Fascism made that much clear).

And my irritation at the Nazi comparisons is more that they’ve been overused if you ask me. How many people make comparisons to what Lenin did, for example? Or even Che Guevara (and by that, I specifically mean make a comparison that paints Che in a negative light)? Or Robespierre for that matter?

There is considerable evidence that German operatives familiar with Friedrich Engels and Karl Marx, did in fact, finance and implement Lenin's infiltration into Russia for the purpose you describe.

...by the time Lenin arrived, Kerensky already threw Nikolas II out and had a provisionary government in place.

As I said, Lenin stole the Russian Revolution from Kerensky starting the Russian Civil War on November 7, 1917.

Tsar Nicholas II and the Romanov Family were murdered in July 1918 by those in Lenin's control.

None of this changes the fact that you need a micrometer to measure the distance between an Extreme Far Left Communist and an Extreme Far Left Fascist, or that Macron is a Fascist.

I don’t disagree with you at all on that front. My main objection was more the comparison to Nazis, and that’s less because I thought they wouldn’t do something like that (or that they were somehow different) and more that, if anything, Nazis are far too overused regarding evoking a political evil. I mean, the Bolsheviks (under Lenin anyways), Castro and Che Guevara, Mao Zedong, even Robespierre get passes for their atrocities and even get lionized, while the Nazis repeatedly get bashed (not unjustly, don’t get me wrong, but it gets annoying when people who were FAR worse than the Nazis are literally hero-worshipped, to such an extent that movie heroes like the Rebel Alliance from Star Wars are actually MODELED after them.).

So, it’s officially the era of Maduroism. None of the leftist wannabe dictators will step down and recognize the will of the people. This is playbook commie stuff. Not surprising, having studied history. The only thing that surprises me these days is that more people aren’t fighting back.
