Well, the thing is Washington Post is liberal left media, why would it spread panic and share information that is not independently researched?
Panic? Saying lots of Muslims are in prison sin't exactly spreading panic! And this is not a political subject so the political orientation isn't important: people hate muslims, they want news saying muslims are all criminals. So they publish this because it makes sells, that's all.
You use the term "right wing" as synonymous for insult,
Because righ wing is synonymous to an economical ideal I do not support at all and I think has been proven wrong ^^
but I understand, that you are one of the few actual french speaking people here.
Indedd.
Le Pen is called "right wing" and her program is leftist if I ever saw one.
Then you've never seen one I guess.
Her "programm" is of 144 propositions.
About 40 of which are about national "protection" which you can translate by kicking out everyone and everything which is not French and add even more security measures than what we already have.
About 30 are propositions to delete taxes on companies, lower them, simplify taxation etc...
That's what you call a right wing programm: security + liberalism for companies...
The only difference is that Lepen adds nationalism to an extent that has never been seen in our country. But that's all. Please find anything "leftist" in her programm ^^
"Left wing" in Europe is synonymous for elitist today.
Sadly yes, lots of people try to label elites as "left wing" which is completely stupid! Left wing is an economical and sociological perspective. People even say that Macron is a "leftist" which is... I don't even have a word for that because Macron si completely right winged. It's just that he doesn't add nationalism to it.
Thank you for clarification.
You're very welcome.
