If Marine Le Pen wins the election, then what next for the West?

With the shock results of brexit, trump there's a strong possibility that Le Pen may win the French elections.3 of the most powerful and influential countries in the West with strong right wing agenda.

So with this triple threat to a liberal tolerant society in the West. Do you think it would lead to deportation of mainly Muslim minorities? Civil wars? Even world war?

UKIP 2020..... I bloody hope not.
It would show the West wants to reject globalisation/islamification. Rejeting neither is a bad thing.
It'd mean the West could finally become the West again.
Liberal? You aren't liberal, you're collectivist. Liberals - genuine liberals - assign rights and responsibilities to individuals, not groups. You have never been liberal, your movement bastardised the term.

Tolerant? You aren't tolerant, far from it. Many liberals are bigoted, anti-Semitic, racist and misandristic. They want to deny or de-legitimise referenda, ignore elections and shame and guilt-trip people into self-censorship. Every argument is a reductionist one - all we ever do is battle identities.

They don't give a crap about people, they just want to exploit people's identity to further their own nefarious cause: global governance. See the Liberal Wall of Hate.

Actually, when thinking about brexit i thought, and think, the best outcome is scrapping the current EU and building one far less centralised and politically heavy and focusing on free trade. That is a huge gamble though, on whether France even has a referendum let alone the FN getting in!

All of this talk of minorities being shoved onto a boat is sheer fear mongering.

It won't happen, I predicted Trump win and brexit win, Marine Le Pen won't win peroid, but brexit maybe an illusion and end up not leaving after French/German elections.

People that call Le Pen right wing trigger me; please learn the definition of that phrase: Right Wing refers to Austrian school, Neoliberal economics; with an emphasis on deregulation and privatisation. It's an economic term and has nothing to do with social policy.

Marine Le Pen and the Front National are actually left wing economically, they are just authoritarian, populist, fascist fruit cakes. The best way to describe it is National Socialism (no, I'm not being ironic) but the followers of this so-called alt-"right" prefer to call it the third way.

I would argue the current trend of allowing mass migration from third world countries that are neither liberal nor tolerant, is a FAR greater threat to Western tolerance and liberalism. In that respect, whether you like it or not, nationalism will be essential if we are ever going to seriously defend and preserve our Western values.

I hope Marine Le Pen wins, I hope this nationalist/anti-globalist renaissance continues to grow across the West and I hope our descent into cultural nihilism is halted and reversed.

Following Brexit, the Ghostbusters box office failure and Trump's election victory, I fear you, I and fellow sh*tposters may succumb to sodium poisoning if this trend continues.
What is wrong with Marine Le Pen exactly? Seems like a nice lady to me
More of the same until the left and centre get their sh*t together.....

Would just mean that white supremacy is going to more extreme that's all. White supremacy has never gone away but with Trump now in and Le Pann could be in, you'd see it more open.

Calm down with the over exaggeration. The one thing that isn't needed is simple rhetoric and harmful generalisations. That's what lead to this darn situation in the first place!

No-she's not like her father by any shot. It would simply lead to Europe going back to economic independence and sovereign countries with their own currency and trade arrangements.

Would be healthy changes.
