the virgin usa: - protests for 2 hours then goes home - politicians think they're being cheered on by an adoring crowd - thinks that wearing pink hats will stop fascism the chad france: -immediately co-opted a nazi protest and removed all the nazis, then started breaking poo poo -politicians are terrified and are offering increasingly socialist policies to save their skins -are already setting up homemade guillotines

Themage posted:whyd they start rioting tho Contrary to all that we’re hearing, the real mystery is not that we revolted, but the fact that we didn’t do it sooner. What’s abnormal is not what we’re doing now, but all that we’ve put up with until now. Who can deny the bankruptcy of the system, from every angle? Who still wants to be shook down, robbed, and left precarious for nothing? Will anyone weep as the wealthy avenues of the 16th arrondissement are plundered by the poor, and the bourgeois watch their gleaming SUV’s go up in flames? As for Macron, he can stop complaining; it was he who asked us to come to him. A state can’t keep legitimating itself by reference to the corpse of a “glorious revolution” and then denounce the rioters as soon as a revolution gets going. The situation is simple: the people want the fall of the system.

There is no moral, ethical, religious, etc. reason to keep capitalism around. Even within so called rich countries the inequalities have become extreme and most suffer while a few get ever richer. Good on France.

i don't know that it started right wing, but i cant tell you much about the beginnings of the movement i think the alt right chuds are mostly glad to see macron eat poo poo, because they always hated him, they probably aren't able to conceive that people on the left might hate him too also they have a very poor understanding of politics here anyway, so i wouldn't trust anything they say or believe

StashAugustine posted:https://mobile.twitter.com/SputnikInt/status/1070668681242275840 If you're referring to the "Gendarmerie Nationale" - iirc they're not allowed to strike/protest since they're part of the military (who are as a whole not allowed to go on strike/protest). In fact there's a term in French that encompasses this idea, it comes from the 3rd Republic where the army was often referred to as "La Grande Muette" i.e. "The Great Mute". It was large and powerful - but those in it (including officers) were not allowed to speak out about anything hence the "Mute" part. The army doesn't always listen (see WWI) but that's the general idea.

She's also big enough to get fluff pieces around and invitations to events like Web Submit Lisbon, so my guess is that she doesn't want to compromise her balancing act of being The Extreme Right Wing choice but also The Vocally Different Engager of Different Opinions that leads to us making GBS threads out "She can't be xenophobic, her favorite restaurant is Portuguese!"
