Yeah because France is fine
Been there a few times, and It's not perfect at all.
Still I'd pay to visit france while you can't pay me to go to the usa.
let's see: macron didn't send terrorists to kill french people on open street ✅ damn, french people seem to be so good at reminding their leaders how they check power that their leaders don't try that shit... maybe american people need to chop some heads with the ol headchopper
We don't chop heads, we poke holes.
We haven't been, and that's the problem
Plenty of things got set on fire during the George Floyd riots. Not sure what that fixed though.
Errr... Macaron is making sure that the nazis win and no one gives a shit
yes, we have the same problem in germany. yet we are talking about a completely different magnitude. trumps people literally are the fascists.
Yes, it's one step away from it. And that's when reaction is needed, not after the nazis start executing people, but yet no one cares
Yeah, EU countries really, REALLY, need to check themselves. Our human frailties are their frailties too. Their shit hole populace is rising. We are evidently go to start funding the parties that will be their demise.
So far, the response to what has been happening has not met the reality of the situation. If I was to bet at this moment, then I would bet that a large part of the EU is going to fall to fascism.
indeed
France burned stuff because the president wanted to increase the age for retirement. Multiple times.
Who's the exceptionalist country now?
They protested endlessly, and got... Nothing. Peanuts.
Macron has the government that used the most by very, very far the 49.3 article which is basically a pass to ignore the democratic process. He said quite clearly that democracy has no power against him and it is proven true.
The fascism in France is just less... frontal, than in the US, but it is there and those little protests, as long as they last, won't change anything.
This is a feature of the 5th Republic, and to be honest when you look at French politics from the outside I dont blame de Gaulle for creating it this way, your parliamentarians cannot compromise for shit.
But that doesn't mean they actually raised taxes or did anything to solve the budget shortfall that the retirement change was for. That's just kicking the can down the road.
