I don't watch the details. I like to satisfy myself that they are on trajectory for various forms of ass kickings - both legal, and , well, via "peaceful" methods too.

I am satisfied of that.

My sole beef is that Le Pen over the years lit a fire and either gave Macron impetus, OR cover to enact certain assimilation rules or immigration curves, moves that were labeled "nativist" if Americans suggest them here.

As long as a certain segment of France's population grows more ostracized, angry, and rebellious - I could care less about the rest.

The capital flight you mention would be spectacular and a bonus. My hope is that it's another contributor to economic stagnancy and structural unemployment which again - hurts assimilation and upward mobility, and makes a nation-within-a-nation more permanent.

Here's to the no-go zones.
