Macron always has a knack to try to use things popular with younger people to score political gains. Infamously with the ZEvent, for instance.

It is now traditional for them to answer with "Shut your mouth Macron, this isn't about you".

Well, with old and elderly people you get Trump, Putin and Netanyahu; so I am fine with broadly politicians to catch younger generations.

Compared to dictators (or wannabe), I get that Macron seems attractive. But he's proven to be pro-rich (taxes on the rich have been drastically cut under Macron) and anti-democratic (he's ignored the result of the last election and nominated a plethora of prime ministers from parties who lost).

I am not that much interested in Macron (or any other) political career; I just get the signaling when a bad politician want it easy (to screw people) and go for elderly people instead to put some effort to convince the future generations.
