Some conservatives are also mourning

Greek Prime Minister and New Democracy party leader Kyriakos Mitsotakis speaks outside the party's headquarters, after the general election, in Athens, on May 21.

Greece's main opposition was not the only one that crashed and burned in Sunday's general election. The intra-party opposition faced by Kyriakos Mitsotakis also collapsed: The faction of former premier Kostas Karamanlis, traditional right-wingers, the extreme-right, obsessive opponents to Mitsotakis - all those within the party apparatus but also out there, in the media microcosm and the toxic microparticles of social media - they are in a state of mourning.

And it is not only SYRIZA that seems to be out of step (stuck in the passive nostalgia of the "revolutionary" 2015, when the party came to power) but also those who oppose Mitsotakis and what he represents for the party.

To be fair, all those on the right who are mourning over Mitsotakis' triumph are the ones whose opinion the prime minister took very seriously while in opposition.
