I’m getting confused between parties and coalitions in France 🇫🇷
Why can’t other countries adopt the sanity of American elections lol

but in principle everything remains the same! the new parties, including the established conservative parties, have absorbed the left-green socialist program and are pursuing it under their own banner, thus disappointing voters beyond the substance of their policies

The number one issue is immigration from third world and Islam Euro Arabia

the disappointment of the masses when nothing changes after an election and then to see that it is a single party that splits into various small sub-groups that all pursue the same policies, which you can read about very nicely in the wef agenda. this disappointment only annoys me because it is the disappointment of naive little children who think that they have to submit to some political regime and then pray and hope that it will get better. instead of taking life into their own hands

Fact, and there is no way around this. I welcome that the debate on immigration has matured over the last few years. The arguments are now infiltrating the mainstream narrative, they are almost impossible to ignore, and cannot be anymore refuted with the usual "racism" non-argument. The lowering of living standards following the population explosion is difficult to ignore, especially in these difficult times. You can't afford to buy a house, you can't get a doctor appointment, get into a decent school etc. It's real...

The subject is no longer taboo
You become what you import
California is now 45 percent Hispanic because of illegal immigration. California is now a third world state. Coincidence?
If people hate Western culture then go east. You will not be missed

German women are getting raped by third world immigrants
When people call me racist I double down on racist comments
I cite crime and welfare statistics and the typical response is there are rapists in Germany too!
Have you heard of Camp of the Saints by Raspail? He wrote the novel in 1973. He was concerned that mass immigration from outside Europe would destroy French culture and western civilisation

True, and sad, and deserve to be acknowledged.
But I think to be more effective, the debate on immigration should focus on the direct and obvious link between mass migration and decrease of living standards in destination countries, as well as the countries where the migrants are from.
Talking about individuals or groups is trickier, because you can easily get dismissed as a racist (rightfully or wrongfully, especially if you get just one fact wrong) and no one wants that...
Who are the Republicans in France or LR?

You have Reconquête, another right wing party, formed recently around a very polarising figure, Eric Zemmour. Zemmour was Le Pen biggest rival on the right but disappointed during the last presidential elections.
You also have several "souverainistes" parties, they are anti Euro/EU/Nato.
Their views are still in the minority.
The National Rally has moved further to the centre, to attract more voters, and "improve" its image. It's working hard to distance itself from the extreme right, this is why at the EU level, they won't form a coalition with the German AfD, and at the national level, I don't see another coalition with the aforementioned right wing parties.

According to the latest updates, the far-right National Rally party led by Jordan Bardella has emerged as the frontrunner in the first round of the 2024 French legislative elections held on June 30[1][2][3][4][5]. The National Rally's strong performance, more than doubling its support compared to the previous election, has sent shockwaves through the French political landscape[4].
President Emmanuel Macron's centrist alliance Together for the Republic suffered a heavy defeat, reflecting growing discontent with his leadership[3][5]. The left-wing coalition New Popular Front also made significant gains, intensifying the competition for parliamentary seats[3].
The election results could have far-reaching consequences, potentially leading to the appointment of a National Rally prime minister and a power-sharing arrangement with Macron[3][5]. This scenario would mark a significant shift in French politics, with implications for the country's domestic policies, its role in the European Union, and its stance on international issues like the conflict in Ukraine[2][3].
The second round of voting is scheduled for July 7, and the final outcome remains uncertain[1][2]. However, the National Rally's strong showing in the first round has raised concerns about the potential rise of far-right ideologies in France[3][5].
