Jean-Luc Mélenchon praises "the creolization of society"

2020-09-21T20:04:59.516Z


In a long speech on the Republic, laying the foundations for his possible next presidential campaign, the leader of the Insoumis called on the French to "make France out of everything", as long as they remain in "the legal community".


Would Jean-Luc Mélenchon have found one of the key concepts of his probable presidential campaign to come?

Monday evening, in one of the rooms of the Mutual, on the occasion of the launch of the new think tank of his movement, the Institut La Boétie, the leader of the Insoumis praised the "

creolization of society

".

A "

new fact

" of which "

we must not be afraid

".

"

We move forward, we move, we breathe, we live,

" he said, stressing that France "

is not an ethnic nation

".

"Make France from scratch"

Faced with a “

zemmourisation of the intellectual space

”, faced with “

the

chaos and disorder that is advancing towards us

”, but also faced with threats to the climate, Mélenchon invites citizens to “close

ranks

”, to “

do France of all kinds, permanently

”.

On one condition, however, “

that everyone participates in the creation of the law and its application

”.

To those who accuse him of communitarianism, the LFI deputy of Marseille responds with another concept called for a certain future among the rebels in the coming months, that of "

the legal community, the only community that has the right to exist

".

Faced with the reality of massive abstentions, in particular the partial Sunday, Jean-Luc Mélenchon assures him, "

if the great number does not come to vote the law, the law has no legitimacy

".

For his third presidential campaign, the former socialist knows that his age can be an obstacle for many, his image too, damaged by the eventful episode of the searches.

So what he wants, even more than in 2012 or 2017, is to show that his person does not matter.

All that matters is the passage that he can allow in order to give the French - whom he considers hostile to the current political system - to lay new foundations through the convocation of a Constituent Assembly.

In 18 months

, he told participants,

you will return to the polls to appoint a president.

It's the only election that empowers someone!

Considering the dangers and difficulties, 18 months is not a long time to build mass conviction

”.

It does not lack much to take the plunge.
