Yeah I’ve now muted the sub because it’s just turned into a misinformation circle jerk

u/iron-ducks 9h ago

What do you, mean? What's the misinformation?

I think OP was mocking the human silly-puddy man in the video, we all know that it's not "student protesters" that are burning down their own schools to protest for better schools lol

“France has fallen”

France has not fallen. France has protests like this like clockwork.

It’s part of the broader misinformation campaign trying to scare Americans and designed to make them think the sky will fall if they don’t vote far right… just before midterms

Real McCarthyist reds under the bed type shit

France has protests.

France doesn't have violent migrants, rioting, destroying millions of dollars worth of city buildings and infrastructure.

I know you guys aren't allowed to watch any of the people or networks that report on these sort of things honestly, but here is a couple hours of just raw footage directly from the riots, you can clearly see what is happening for yourself, you can see who is perpetrating it:

Here's a short, if nothing else watch this 2 minutes.

https://youtu.be/iJjQGl3u8mo

https://youtu.be/TWCrlLmlD_g

The entirety of the West has been flooded with people from third world countries who hate us.

You don't have to talk to me about it, but I want you to think of these countries and what they're like.

We are grafting millions of military aged men onto our own countries.

"Import the 3rd world, become the 3rd world."

We don't have magic soil, these men do not change their beliefs, history and behavior based on their location. Flying from Africa, the Middle East or South America doesn't transform them on the flight over.

Lol @ “you guys aren’t allowed to watch things”

Here’s the thing bud, I actually watch and consume a range of media and history and don’t get my news from a narrow bunch of right wing media networks and truth social like you. Plus I’ve actually, you know, been to France.

Thats why I can tell you this is something that’s been happening in France since it incepted, a celebrated part of its make up, and as much as you want to make this “decline of the west“ argument, if you wanted to tell the truth you’d realise that what Trump has done to the US has been infinitely more damaging to the idea of the “west” than a few protests in France, he has completely isolated his strongest allies, while he simultaneously folded to America’s longest enemy and embraced them to take over the country.

So spare me the reds under the bed about France and the west because if you’re not worried about the fox that’s already all but destroyed the hen house, then you’re not a serious person anyway

That’s not misinformation it’s a clickbait title, try again with the censorship narrative

u/damnumalone 9h ago

Misinformation is definitely when you make things up sorry mate, even if you throw a couple of truths in around the lie salad to pretend it’s not what you’re doing

u/Hownowbrowncow8it 14h ago

Yeah, I'm bailing. It's got real lame

Yep, me too. Every damn post now is some disinformation bullshit.

u/BreakfastFluid9419 14h ago

I mean, they probably started as protests for that and then other people who are upset about something joined. I’m sure if you ask a bunch of people you’ll get different responses

u/Grift-Economy-713 13h ago

I’d be willing to bet all violent protests/riots/revolutions etc. all worked this same way you’ve described

They did literally just burn down the town hall in my wife’s home town though…

u/ippleing 14h ago

The one that somehow survived protests since 1883 now the French teenagers burned it down over school budgets...

2

u/rokstedy83 7h ago

It's no longer about school budgets

1

u/Greedy-Employment917 3h ago

It was never about school budgets and anyone who's telling you that was trying to construct the narrative from the start.

u/JayGild 12h ago

/s for the title in case people don't get it.

u/thespaceageisnow 14h ago

Why is this sub going so hard on the french protests

12

u/mynamesnotsnuffy 13h ago

Because its an election season and the bots nets in Russia need to make up for lost time.

These aren't protests, these are violent riots.

Its like you're terrified of learning and changing your mind. Have you seen the French and how they protest? Get fucked.

u/Grift-Economy-713 13h ago

The French government isn’t treating their people well. The people are responding accordingly.

Why can't Americans be more like the French

Embarrassing

u/Grift-Economy-713 10h ago edited 3h ago

I think we are much more embarrassing.

We just do nothing while our rights are taken away. Patriot Act, The Snowden Stuff, Citizens United, no guaranteed healthcare, social security going bankrupt, constant tax breaks for billionaires and millionaires, pedos in the Epstein files go un-prosecuted, wars in the middle east that no one wants that drag on for 20 yrs, etc, etc...

The French start burning cars when their gov screws them.

u/GIT_45 15h ago

Actor who played Jesse Pinkman on Breaking Bad, sold his mansion and moved to France.

And you all know why this Caucasian girl used the buzzword ‘patriotism’. Fear mongering is the first tactic of the far right.

5

u/ippleing 14h ago

At this point this is beyond left and right politics.

We can argue that all day long, meanwhile people that have been in France for a year have no problem burning buildings or throwing bricks at police.

It's not the French teenagers lighting historic buildings on fire.

u/GIT_45 13h ago

These data centers must be on full throttle. You right winger bots and paid actors have been working overtime since it’s election time.

I hope Zelenskyy bombs more data centers.

u/Greedy-Employment917 4h ago

We watched this happen yesterday. Are you trying to claim it wasn't real?

Usually you have to wait a few months before trying to memory hole something that was broadcast live. But here you are, trying to claim it didn't happen while the church is still smoldering.

u/mynamesnotsnuffy 14h ago

No, it is specifically right wing fear mkngering and lying. Holy crap you people are disturbingly susceptible to propaganda.

9

u/ippleing 14h ago

You're right, it's the French burning their own historic buildings and churches over school funding.

1

u/mynamesnotsnuffy 14h ago

Have you not ever been aware of how the French protest? Read a book for once, you might learn something if you stop being afraid of education.

8

u/ippleing 14h ago

Oh you're right.

It's French teenagers burning buildings in protest of their school budgets.

Those kids are just playing pranks burning churches that have survived 400 years of their forefathers protesting.

2

u/mynamesnotsnuffy 13h ago

Literally yes, that is what the protesters themselves are saying, if you actually listened to them instead of your racist podcaster host masters that probably fuck kids on the side. Holy shit.

3

u/Axel_Raden 13h ago

Yes they riot and they even burn shit but not buildings that are over a hundred years old. These "protests" went too far when they burned that woman's face and they haven't gotten any better.

3

u/mynamesnotsnuffy 13h ago

Id say they got worse when the police shot students asking for more education funding. Got back to siberia, bot

4

u/Axel_Raden 13h ago

Why the hell are you excusing this shit. They are attacking innocent people and destroying history. If they are being attacked by police they should be attacking the police not people who are innocent people

2

u/mynamesnotsnuffy 10h ago

attacking people

Thats bad, but Im not French and Im not there. I cant stop it, have no influence on them, and they shouldnt do that.

destroying history

So is Trump, but I dont hear the outrage there. Let the French take care of their own business, its not like much really happened in that building anyway that would matter to anyone outside of France, so its entirely their own business in my opinion.

attacking the police

Surprise, that is whats happening. Not to mention the heinous things some police have said recently that got out, sounds like the police there should be reformed to eliminate the far right racist corrupt elements

2

u/Axel_Raden 10h ago

I don't care about Trump I'm not American. They started by attacking people who tried to get them to stop including burning a womans face. This isn't going to get them what they want I going to empower Marine Le pen and her far right party.

u/rose-tintedglasses 10h ago

I'm a history fanatic. Went to college my first go-round as a Classics major. So, architecture is a big deal for me.

But the preservation of historic buildings should never be more important than the preservation of human life and wellbeing.

A city that lets her citizens starve (or fails to provide for their wellbeing) should burn to the ground if necessary.

1

u/Axel_Raden 10h ago

This is not going to improve anyone's well-being this will further empower Marine Le pen and her far right party
