Small reminder: before you start the revolution this time check if there are any Bonapartes around and do the needful (:thermidor:) if there are. Good luck!

Aren't French Monarchists split three ways between the Bourbons, the other ones, and the Bonapartists being a laughing stock even among them?

Yeah, you've got the légitimistes, who want some Spanish Bourbon on the throne, and the orléanistes, who support the late count of Paris (and now I guess one of his sons?). I've never met any napoléonistes tbh but I'm sure there are a couple of them about.

Also on the topic, 20 Minutes has a great piece retracing what Benalla did on the night of July 18th when Le Monde published their first article, and it's just a doozy:

quote:

Rapidement, Maxence Creusat extrait une vidéo où l’on voit un couple jeter des cendriers et une carafe d’eau sur les CRS. Dans le jargon, on appelle cela des « PZVP » : des « plans de zone de la ville de Paris ». Les sortir du système est illégal. Dès le lendemain, le commissaire confessera avoir fait « une connerie ». Mais, ce soir-là, Laurent Simonin, son supérieur, l’encourage. Sur la route des vacances, celui-ci parvient même à lui affecter le renfort de Jean-Yves Hunault pour cela. Il s’agit de l’officier de liaison entre la préfecture de police et l’Élysée.

Mais, sur l’île de la Cité, dans les locaux de la Direction de l’ordre public et de la circulation, les deux hommes ne parviennent pas à faire une copie du fameux CD. Maxence Creusat, propose donc d’aller chez lui, à quelques rues à peine, persuadé d’y parvenir avec son propre matériel. Mais là aussi, la technique a raison de lui. Il est finalement plus de 23 heures quand Jean-Yves Hunault se résout finalement à remettre le CD original à Alexandre Benalla, toujours attablé au Damas Café.

There's way more in the piece itself but it is all at that level of astounding corruption. It's amazing. Please give it a read.

Je suis en train de lire Vingt ans après, la suite de Les Trois Mousquetaires, qui a lieu pendant la Fronde. La France moderne a besoin de ce genre d'émeute, mais celle qui réussit cette fois et prend fin par Macron suspendu la tête en bas avec son crâne coincé dans une grosse citrouille. De plus, vous brûlez le Parlement le 5 novembre pour maximiser l'ironie.

A bunch of french journos were part of private facebook group named Ligue du Lol (LOL league) started circa 2010, and used it to launch coordinated attacks against women, feminists, jews, POCs and LGBTQs both online and IRL. 99% white males if you were wondering. They now write for papers like Liberation or Les Inrocks (the editor in chief...) which are generally progressive.

The info got out this weekend, more and more victims testimonies are being published as we speak, and they paint a nasty picture.
The guys involved have spent the weekend publishing half-assed "I'm sorry my humor hurt you" type excuses. Apparently they all left the group after 2 months and were all only passive observers, whereas victims talk about being harassed for years :iiam:.

Also, purging their twitter accounts from the most incriminating stuff.

Some people in EM are trying to use it to justify a new law* against posting anonymously on the internet but all those idiots were harassing people using their not-anonymous twitter accounts with their official names all over it. The stuff that's really bad is (mostly) their coordination on a private Facebook and their dumb as gently caress fake phone calls.
