The masses retreated to the establishment for one more time. Despite the great heritage from the French revolution, the French people capitulated to the establishment by sending the neoliberal puppet, Emmanuel Macron, and the reserve of the neoliberal establishment, Marine Le Pen, to the second round. Another great defeat for the people. Another big win for the neoliberal regime.
Jean-Luc Mélenchon was the only option for a radical change in France and Europe. Yet, people were trapped inside the terror climate that was created by the neoliberal regime to keep the masses in the path of 'business as usual', despite that the political establishment suffered huge losses, not only in France, but everywhere in Europe.
The banker, Emmanuel Macron, will probably win in the second round. Well, there is no much difference with the Goldman Sachs puppets that governed Italy and Greece, even for a short time. The Macron case will be worse because he will govern full term under the approve of the popular vote, on the contrary of Mario Monti in Italy and Lucas Papademos in Greece.
Macron is certainly the 'darling' of the ruthless neoliberal establishment, the corresponding Hillary Clinton for France. With the banker in charge for the next years, the European Financial Dictatorship will have all the time to finish the brutal experiment in Greece. The Brussels bureaufascists and the Berlin sado-monetarists will be celebrating right now.
The experiment will be expanded throughout Europe unless we see a miracle in the next crucial electoral process in Germany. The Left there is weak. Die Linke is very far from claiming the leadership of the country, but still, hope dies last, as they say.
But even if Marine Le Pen wins in the final round, she is nothing more than a reserve of the establishment. She is not the first choice of the establishment, she is a choice of urgency, but the establishment will force her to follow the status quo agenda of the plutocracy, exactly as happened with Donald Trump in the United States.
France has just lost a great chance to beat the establishment by bringing the Left in power, exactly as happened in the United States. The Americans had two chances for a real change: first with Bernie Sanders, second with Jill Stein. They lost both of them.
Europeans lost another big battle with the neoliberal elites, but the war is not over ...
