Rising Rightwing Millennials and Generation Z
It's more of a generational thing. While millennials and generation Z get a lot of hate, they're actually becoming more conservative while the boomers are stuck in their old ways. Give France more time for millennials/gen Z to grow, then we'll see the mass right wing movement of elected officials. Hopefully the Muslim population isn't out of control by then.

Quote:
Almost half of young French voters voted for Marine Le Pen in the presidential run-off, early indications suggest.
Some 44 per cent of 18 to 24-year-olds backed the Front National leader, compared with 56 per cent who voted for centrist Emmanuel Macron, according to projections.
The far-right Ms Le Pen secured more support among young voters than any other age group.By contrast, she was backed by just 20 per cent of over 65s.
Overall, forecasts suggest Mr Macron secured around 65 per cent of votes to Ms Le Pen’s 35 per cent.
