Yeah french newspapers are annoying because of that
Hunches and gut feelings. Dreams in waking life.

A link in case anyone is curious : they’re repurposing the Defense Arena https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4qV8jmM18sw
Why be so antagonizing, this is a discussion
It’s not your job to go look for those statements either, they can search for more information themselves and report back with their findings
“Pro russian far left” is the rhetoric used by the Macron government, the parties of this union have consistently condemned the Russian invasion, the program they revealed mentions :
Defend Ukraine and peace on the European continent to thwart Vladimir Putin’s war of aggression, and for him to answer for his crimes before international justice: to defend unwaveringly the sovereignty and freedom of the Ukrainian people as well as the integrity of its borders, by delivering necessary weapons, cancelling its foreign debt, seizing the assets of the oligarchs who contribute to the Russian war effort within the framework permitted by international law, sending peacekeepers to secure nuclear power plants, in an international context of tensions and war on the European continent and working towards the return of peace
Far left in France has a specific definition that seems to be blatantly disregarded by french politicians : those who want to take power via a revolution are far left, this union is playing the game of gaining power through the popular vote
I’m not sure about the semantics but I think both can be used interchangeably ?
I’ve only been to Iceland so I can’t judge the others, Norway really fascinates me with its nature, and political history. The Baltics are on the map, I was supposed to go to Latvia in 2021 for a concert, but it’s been postponed 5 times, but I hope I get to visit all three of them as well.
Completely misread the comment, I’ll edit
Excellent summary of the political situation in France, thanks for sharing
Macron took pride in this ability to see beyond ideological apriorism and see all sides of the issues. He was neither left nor right – he was both. Or neither.
The french leftists are usually mocking Macron’s catch phrase "neither left nor right", we say he’s neither left, nor left
The rise of fascism in France does come from the actual far right, it’s been a gradual change of policies and the implementation of authoritarian measures by the very government who keeps saying “vote for us to save democracy from the fascists”. Macrons has deliberately betrayed the left wing voters, repressed protesters, and kept moving further and further right… [1] [2] [3] [4]
So yeah I don’t know what advice to give, be watchful and attentive of actions, not promises 🤷
The upcoming European elections are seeing a massive win for the French far right, people are blinded by their fake anti Macron stance (when both of them are voting for each others policies at the parliament), it’s quite depressing
Being french, I will call my government hypocrite no matter what, any chance I have 😛
Classic hypocrisy of France (or western democracies in general?)
French police on Friday shot dead a man armed with a knife and a crowbar who tried to set fire to a synagogue in the northern city of Rouen, adding to concerns over anti-Semitic violence in the country.
It’s Europe, we could be happy about Europe too haha
Maybe the person you responded to only wished to not learn about the details of shenanigans from shitty people, because news are already depressing enough, and you just hit them with even more negativity.
Everyone can live a happy life without ever learning who Tate is, it’s not “sticking one’s head in the sand” ; don’t be so judgemental.
Just Macron things, talk a lot before elections (European ones currently) to gather sympathy, then do nothing and be surprised when people call him out for not following up, blame someone or something else for his failures
Wake me up when ai is able to discern context, and do more than just spew out words that go well after another 😴
Welp, that’s what Macron first presented himself as, can’t blame you 🤭
What happened to Belarus 😨
