Why is Molière considered the french Shakespear ?

He's not bad, but he can't hold a candle to other playwrights of his time, namely Corneille and Racine.

because of SJW leftist destroying the west. They want us to only read black women from now on or gaymen

He was more influential for the language itself.
He scoured the provinces at a time where most Frenchmen didn't speak french. He took plenty of words from their patois and added it to the french language. My favorite one is crétin. In savoyard, it means christian. In french, well you know

C'est une question de prose, ou plutôt de finesse prosaïque, et non d'ecellence théatrale ni même artistique. Au demeurant, Molière était un artiste de talent ; ne soyons point trop sévères.

Vai se fuder, bixa louca.

I was underwhelmed as well but I have felt that way with many plays from his period. I figure it's cause they're all translated to English so they lose their flavor.

This. the 'greatest playwright of a language" meme obvi doesn't translate.

Though i do think Rameau is way better than Moliere in the original french

oh yeah, see tolstoy's opinion on shakespeare to get a taste of this

Because french people have inferior intellect (otherwise marxism wouldn't be so popular in France). So they need to rely on "the french X".
