    The second round opposed him to a facist. We voted against the facist. The first round was won because of different factors including extreme PR from macron (with often false promises) and vote fragmentation of the left wing

        Pretty much. Problem is, the solution you’re thinking of is no longer applicable when you can risk serious injuries, lifelong handicaps and even death for simple protests due to the current police brutality happening right now.
