Millions who believed the prophets of globalism and their fairy tales about a happy future will soon discover that there are neither fairy tales, no future.
The big world, in which questions of life and death, nobility and dishonor, self-salvation and self-sacrifice, questions of dignity and existential choice are decided, as we know, exists next to the small world, in which the most important circumstance is comfort, and the questions of life and death have shifted to questions about the availability for consumption of thousands of varieties of cheeses, wines, sausages, hygiene products.
The era of fights and battles, when it was allowed to lose everything except honor, has given way to a time when the absence of “cottage cheese” with the usual fruity taste on sale becomes a drama.
The French, once leaders in the demolition of the systemic power establishment in continental Europe, preferred to exchange the values of the big world for the materiality of the small world. They agreed that none was the best choice, and they voted quite massively to maintain the status quo. The status quo, which implies the presence of a philistine “comfort set”. Including the notorious cheeses, sausages, wine and Friday booze in the campaign. This is true for now. As long as there is cheese. There are still sausages. And there is an opportunity to buy wine.
The French, once the founders of critical thinking and reflection, that very cogito ergo sum – I think, and therefore I exist – joyfully gave up their own sovereignty, when the people (and only the people) decide what is good for them and what should be abandoned, some officials in some abstract Brussels.
The French, once a nation that lived with a mission to benefit, if not all of humanity, then at least neighboring peoples, made the choice to be in tune with the era of globalism, and, perhaps, for such good behavior they will be given the opportunity to sell their goods with a small profit.
The exchange of scale “lentil soup vs birthright” is done.
And it’s time to look at the numbers that initialed, so to speak, this deal.
The mandate of the incumbent head of state has been extended for another five years by some 19 million voters.
Those dissatisfied with Macron turned out to be about a third less – there were about 13 million of them.
But then the most interesting begins: those who voted unconsciously, mentally saying “a plague on both your houses”, turned out to be make over 13 million people.
But that’s not all: if we consider the numbers that divided Macron and Le Pen in this vote and compare them with the elections in the second round of five years ago, it turns out that Macron lost about 8% of supporters, while Le Pen gained over 7% of new voters.
And if we add that two more politicians (Eric Zemmour and Valerie Pecresse) fought for votes on the right and ultra-right political flank of French citizens, it becomes obvious that even with the use of all the power of the administrative resource, colossal financial injections, support, publicity and that no less important, behind the scenes, too, coming from Brussels and Washington, Macron won that victory, which can rightfully be called Pyrrhic.
But this is by and large not the most important thing.
The main outcome of the current vote is a tragically divided country.
And a dramatically divided nation.
For Macron, either those who were lucky under globalism, or those who gnawed out a powerful piece for themselves during the previous, “vegetarian” era.
The voters of the new “old” president have practically no ties with the country, they can just as easily leave (taking dogs, cats or hamsters) even to Honolulu, even to Singapore, if only they would pay more there.
Le Pen’s voters are people connected to France and soil and destiny, they are farmers, they are owners of small, very small and microscopic businesses that cannot move anywhere. They have a house, land, loans, children. And they do not think of their life, their existence, as well as the life and existence of their children outside the place where they were born. These people do not consider it possible for themselves not to follow the traditions in which they were brought up, regardless of what they think about them and what supporters of everything non-traditional say about them.
In today’s France, it is customary to almost openly despise such people, considering them senseless ballast and a “patch on progress.”
At the same time, it is these people who support the reception of endless streams of illegal immigrants with their taxes (at the moment, according to official data, there are at least 900 thousand of them in the country), it is from their money that no less endless associations are financed that promote the fluid-gender style in all spheres of life ranging from art to high school. And it is from their money that funds for the “green transition” go.
So, according to the numbers, it turns out the following: more than 13 million who voted for Le Pen and the same number who refused to come to the polls in principle, these more than two and a half tens of millions (out of 49 million who have the right to vote) do not want, openly or not quite, to see Macron as head of state.
In fact, these two and a half dozen million people could become a problem for the “old” newly elected president if the “old” newly elected president thought about these people. If he decided to delve into their very earthly, very soiled and very simple problems, even if only briefly and not much. But Macron, of course, will not do this.
These people, as it is now clear, will be sacrificed. How their way of life, and their traditions, and their values will be sacrificed.
The blue flags with a halo of stars that fluttered next to the French national tricolor unequivocally pointed to that Moloch who was already ready to swallow, chew and spit out those who, as they say, did not fit into the new times, when the national language, culture and ideals ceased to exist. play at least some role and have at least some political significance.
Those who try to balance, trying to stay between the chairs of globalism and national interest, will be dealt with in the same way as those who clearly say that France’s current desire to forget about its own history is suicidal. Both the first and second ones will become expendable political material for the construction of a new supranational state with Brussels and Washington as possible capitals.
France, just as it did more than eighty years ago, when it signed the act of defeat in World War II near Compiègne, did not pass the exam in the face of History.
But then the nation – not a state and not the Vichy regime – thanks to the foresight and patriotism of de Gaulle and the courage of the general’s comrades-in-arms, got the opportunity to re-examine and eventually became one of the powers that won Nazism. That allowed the country to keep its head straight, not to look away from shame for capitulation, and to sit in the UN Security Council as a permanent member.
Today, having surrendered almost all positions, however, while retaining an assortment of sausages, cheeses and wine, France has deprived itself of sovereignty. There is no new De Gaulle and is not expected.
The millions who believed the prophets of globalism and their fairy tales about a happy future will very soon discover that there are no fairy tales, no future.
And Talleyrand’s famous phrase that every nation deserves its own government, on the evening of the second round of the presidential elections in France, became the most accurate assessment of the results of the voting.
