A couple of thoughts:

I seem to recall the French electoral left being plagued by infighting and factionalism. They really came together this election and turned it around.
Electoralism is ultimately a dead end, of course, but I feel like the French left leans more into direct action than their more timid counterparts in places like the US. Seems like this gives them an edge that other western left movements don't have.

I'm not French so maybe I'm way off on this. Please correct me if so.
