Gort posted:So, I know nothing of French politics but I'm eager to learn. Why was Hollande considered such a failure? I actually had a bit of hope when I heard you guys had elected a left-winger back in the day. because he was more an obama-style "left-winger"

steinrokkan posted:It has nothing to do with Macron, and everything to do with exploding demographics being unsustainable. Doubling the population with every generation - how long can that work. dealing with exploding demographics doesn't involve making it harder for parents to raise what children they have by taxing them punitively tho women can't just unhave children edit: but that's not what it says, cause taux is a false friend and it means rate, not tax. this is what they want: "adopter des stratégies afin de « faciliter un déclin rapide, volontaire, de la fécondité grâce à l’accès universel à la planification familiale, l’augmentation du niveau d’éducation des femmes et le renforcement des efforts pour améliorer la survie de l’enfant. »" which means they want "to adopt strategies such as facilitating a rapid, voluntary decline of the birth rate through universal access to family planning, as well as improving the education level of women and reinforcing efforts for improving infant survival" if i'm reading it right Condiv fucked around with this message at 15:34 on Jul 23, 2017 |

khwarezm posted:I don't know if this something anybody in France cares about but American Liberals seem to be all over the Trevor Noah/Gérard Araud tiff in a way that makes them seem more insufferable than usual. i just looked it up cause i hadn't heard of it till now, and I saw this article about it: https://www.vox.com/policy-and-politics/2018/7/19/17590302/trevor-noah-france-french-ambassador-araud-world-cup this article seems to masturbate a lot about the american subcultures retaining their identity, and shits on the idea of everyone who has french citizenship just being "french", but the idea of non-assimilation tolerance in america is just bs. only minorities hyphenate in the US. white people don't. If your parents are french and white and you are born in america, you're just an american, not a "french-american".Likewise, if your parents were black and french, and you were born in america, you're "african-american", not "french-american". moreover, if you're not black or white, then you can expect to hear "where are you from?" on a constant basis in america, even if you have a very typical accent for the area. and if you say "america", then the question will always come up "where are your parents from?"

JustJeff88 posted:Other fun facts: America, despite having the second highest Jewish population (not per capita necessarily, just raw quantity) in the world (France is 3rd), there's still a healthy dollop of anti-semitism despite being and overwhelmingly Christian country who worships a Jewish carpenter as the son of God. I'm also a Brit who lives in the US, and my favourite kind of discrimination is that people assume that any British accent is an affectation in order to get people to like you, sound more cultured or what have you. Nothing more fun to me than spending years being mocked, alienated and on several occasions almost physically beaten for speaking slightly differently than the surrounding population only to be told by Americans who've never left the country that my accent is clearly put on and I'm just doing it in order to get sex. this is how US racism works. being in france, it's a little shocking to me sometimes how people are open about their racism compared to even oklahoma, but that doesn't mean the racism is worse in france on its own. the US has gotten incredibly good at hiding racism as hating other things that are "perfectly ok" to hate. such as being poor. or being a criminal. two things that minorities are likely to be cause our economic and justice systems are set up to make criminals and poor people out of minority groups. yes, there are out and out racists in the US that will just say the bad words that make it obvious they're racists. but the smart ones have learned to keep that poo poo hidden behind closed doors and to oppress minority groups subtly. they've learned that if they do this, they can carry out their racism just fine without blowback Condiv fucked around with this message at 18:45 on Jul 21, 2018 |
