Half of young French men aged 18-24 are declaring their nation superior to others, with 50% identifying as nationalists according to a fresh poll. This isn’t just chest-thumping patriotism; it’s a seismic rightward lurch among Gen Z guys in a country long dominated by globalist elites and socialist orthodoxy. France, birthplace of the guillotine and street riots, has seen its youth awaken to the allure of sovereignty—perhaps fueled by endless migrant waves, economic stagnation, and the cultural erosion that comes with unchecked multiculturalism. Think about it: these are the same lads watching Marine Le Pen’s National Rally surge, rejecting Macron’s borderless utopia for something fiercer, more rooted.
For the 2A community, this is a flashing neon sign of global momentum. Nationalism isn’t just waving flags; it’s reclaiming identity, borders, and self-defense in an age of threats from without and within. In France, where even owning a rifle can land you in bureaucratic hell, this youth surge mirrors the pro-gun awakenings we’ve seen stateside—young men ditching soy for steel, prioritizing kin and country over virtue-signaling. If French zoomers are going nationalist, imagine the domino effect: stronger calls for armed self-reliance against urban unrest or Islamist enclaves. It’s no coincidence that rising nationalism worldwide correlates with gun rights advocacy; from Hungary’s Orbán fortifying borders to America’s red-pilled millennials stocking ARs. This poll whispers what we know: the rightward tide lifts all boats, including those carrying the Second Amendment’s spirit across the Atlantic.
The implications? Europe’s powder keg is lit, and America’s 2A warriors should take notes. As French youth reject supranational weakness, expect parallel pushes for personal armament—hunting rifles today, self-defense carry tomorrow. It’s a reminder that nationalism and the right to bear arms are twin pillars of sovereignty; erode one, and the other crumbles. Stay vigilant, stock up, and cheer these French bros—they’re fighting the same war we are, one poll at a time.
