I think you have a waayy to charitable interpretation of Mélenchon. You try to see a long term plan behind the immediate red flags, while I do not think he deserves do. He is just a politician, they have no vision beyond their immediate interests. I reject your hypothesis of his supppsed 3D chess move on US/France/Russia

I understand your point. Being french, it's hard not to throw all those fuckers in the same basket. My reason for trusting Mélenchon's party over others is simply a test of coherence between what is claimed by the party and what they actually vote in parliament (to me, it's actually the only way to know a political party's solidity beyond the noise they make for PR). So far, I've found more coherency in LFI and the ecologists. The communist party also has solid parliament votes, but their current leader is a bad joke. The french socialist party I won't even mention, the only socialism they're capable of is putting the word in their name (the last socialist president's mandate went so bad he actually killed the French's establishment left, and supported Macron over a candidate of his own party during the following elections). They're the french collaborationist equivalent of the american Dems. Inept and treacherous. Plain anticapitalist parties would be better IMHO, but they don't have the voter base to compete. Also, I watch who the corporate media has been bashing the most for the benefit of our corrupt oligarchy, and they're terrified of LFI, which is a good sign to me.
