This is huge
The right-wing candidate who said "stop the war on cars" was defeated.
The leftist who said "My goal is to make sure Grégoire loses" was defeated

No, they want the other left parties to agree to all their conditions and refuse to compromise on their positions. I'm all for a united left but LFI is a big part of the problem.
So the biggest player with the most success so far should compromise to the people who wants to push a liberal agenda?
This makes no sense. You cannot do fuck all for years, loose your base, alienate everybody and then come to say "hey stop bullying me and accept my conditions, also you're antisemitic, and I hate the way you speak".
Yes, they should compromise. They're obviously not big enough to win on their own, so they should compromise like all the others. They refuse to do so, and the logical consequence is that other parties refuse to join them.
If you think that having more popularity makes them the absolute authority of the left and every other party should bow to their ideas, we have nothing to discuss.
They refuse to compromise with parties less liberal than them as well, by the way. They refuse to compromise no matter the agenda.
What specific issues do you think they refuse to compromise on? Islamoleftism? Genocide being bad?
I'll let you have a look at the difference of opinions between LFI and every other left party. All those differences are issues they refuse to compromise on :)
Just give me one.
I'm not your search engine. If you don't see it and refuse to search for it, that's your problem. I'm not here to convince anyone.
Serieux, sur quoi ils refusent le compromis. Je veux pas te blesser hein copain, mais c'est une question simple et c'est toi-meme qui avance qu'ils sont intransigeant, donc c'est a toi d'appuyer tes propos.
La bonne journee
It should be very easy though.
I actually looked it up. The only thing they really distinguish themselves from the other leftist parties is police violence.
Whiiich, well, i got my head bumped on the pavement by the cops while protesting last summer, so i'm with them on this. Compromising to a bunch of violent cops is not the way to go if you want to have moral high ground.
You miss the points. To quote someone else "you don't have the cards".
When your party is irrelevant and you want to push your agenda and slander the other bigger boy, ofc you gonna get bullied. That's how life works.
If they had no cards, LFI wouldn't need them. You're contradicting yourself.
... They don't need them. They want them to work together yet the others spit on their face everytime they have the chance.
If they don't need them, why aren't they winning? Only time they won recently was... When they compromised and united. Crazy how that works.
They are...?
