- venomsnake 13y agoIf you live in continental Europe - Democrats are on the right part of the isle and Republicans are on the right of Le Pen. Rough approximation.
- gadders 13y agoAnd completely wrong. It's just that boring old "HAR HAR HAR RIGHT WING EQUALS FASCIST" trope put out by lazy lefties.
- venomsnake 13y agoLe Pen focuses on immigration to France, the European Union, traditional culture, law and order and France's high rate of unemployment. He advocates immigration restrictions, the death penalty, raising incentives for homemakers,[1] and euroscepticism. He strongly opposes same-sex marriage, euthanasia, and abortion. As boilerplate modern republican as they come
