Because it's time to go French today. In this case, specifically the far-right French female version of Trump, Marine Le Pen (because God knows, even women can be pieces of shit upon the fabric of humanity. Go feminism!)
Look. I'm very clearly not French since otherwise, this whole thing will be written in French but I think that in the interest of humanity, it is best to find a way to block these type of people from ever finding a say in international politics.
The world is becoming increasingly connected with one another (of course, I note the irony of me saying this with a large grin on my face given that I have an overwhelming tendency to stay rooted and hidden from the world) and these sort of thinking is horrible to the growth of humanity as a species.
I like to think of the world as a weird place. Plenty of borders to mark cultural differences and yet, intermingling enough that no one will want to look at each other with hate on account that we believe differently and look differently. Sounds great doesn't it?
The problem with nationalism is that it wants borders drawn as a straight, unbroken line. Not porous ones where people can seep in and out without worries. New ideas to come in and flow out that benefits both sides will never happen. Instead, the whole world becomes a Dead Sea where nothing lives and everything floats because there's too much salt in the water.
But these people like it that way because nothing happens in the Dead Sea. Everything is static because everything is dead. The old ways is the only way to live according to these people. There's no reason to change, they say.
But we need to change a lot of things. A lot of the old ways are shit and need to be discarded. Sure, they may be familiar but they does not mean that they are good. That's why we want to get rid of them. They're too damn salty at this point.
So where does Marine Le Pen fit in all this? Honestly, if I have my way, she should just be a footnote in the world's history. Someone who was there at that point and made a little wave but otherwise, forgotten by the world at large. Such ideas and politics should be booted out because it's old and moronic and we don't need this sort of shit in the twenty-first century.
