But these are different phenomena - though linked to the underlying polycrisis (see my other reply here: https://climatejustice.social/@GeofCox/111056958005658098).

Macron like the right-wing extremists in Poland, etc, was indeed a product of the collapse of the centre (both centre-right and centre-left parties) in France.  He did this by promising something entirely new - 'beyond right and left'.  Voters have already started punishing him for not delivering anything very new - hence the continuing rise of both Mélenchon and LePen camps in the last Assembly elections.  Macron is now deeply unpopular.

But despite this common origin of their support in rejection of the status quo, Macron is very different precisely in being more neo-liberal.  The extreme right in Poland, etc, is rather different because it is post-free-market,  post-globalisation, post neoliberal - it is more nationalist - more fascist if you.like.  France could go that way too - but left traditions are also still strong here, so it cold go our way (by which I mean the way of humanity).
