    The center will lead to the alt-right again. Look at Bayrou who talk about “subversion migratoire”, Darmanin telling lepen she’s soft on imigrants or even Macron rolling the red carpet for the alt-right.

    ( Note : liberals are not leftist in Europe, they are center right, the left would be socialist ) Outside of France it’s the same, liberals are all too happy to welcome fascist if it help protect the establishment. In France we even have a saying for that : “Plutôt Hitler que les Front populaire” ( meaning people in power would prefer Nazi to a change in hierarchy, “Rather Hitler than the popular front” ).

    All of that to say, don’t hope centrist will do anything other than open the door when fascism come.
