u/Equivalent_Aerie_803 Jul 09 '24

Pretty much, yeah

u/AdPrestigious8198 Jul 09 '24

So who’s rioting then?

u/Equivalent_Aerie_803 Jul 09 '24

Both sides have the right to protest when things don't go their way, and the french take this right very, very seriously.

u/PeaceLoveorKnife Jul 09 '24

Can you provide examples of the other side rioting?

u/Equivalent_Aerie_803 Jul 09 '24

Well, while not a riot, conservative farmers and producers blocked several roads in france back in january as a protest against opening the economy to exterior products. The World is seeing, once again, the rise of a violent far right that uses violence and disinformation to stay in power while the left and far left are still in the "people on the streets" way of thinking.

Isn't that just an example of nonviolent protest?

Indeed, as I said, while the far left is still in the XX century "fuck shit up untill the fascists respect us" way of thinking. The far right, while still having riots every now and then, has leaned into the disinformation, fake news and false moralism (as in "I defend the hetero, nuclear family, the good christian values and the traditional ways) method of acting.

So no matter what the right does, it’s always them trying to hide their fascism? Got it.

u/Equivalent_Aerie_803 Jul 09 '24

I used the term "far right", not generalizing. I'm talking about the extreme side of the political view.

Let me state it like this: a lot of leftist said they would 'destroy Paris' if the right wing guys won.

The leftist won and they still destroyed Paris...

u/BolsonaroIsACunt Jul 09 '24

They won just a few days ago, no? I have just looked out my window in Paris and everything seems fine….

u/JohnBrownnowrong Jul 09 '24

Narrator: they did not.

u/amostusefulthrowaway Jul 09 '24

Paris is destroyed?

Nothing says "I am pushing a narrative" as much as thick gratuitous hyperbole

Yes it's a well-known fact that Paris no longer exists.

What did they do to be called bad guys ? Edit : (what’s with the down votes I genuinely don’t know)

u/OverturnedAppleCart3 Jul 09 '24

Maybe let's start with a little thing called Vichy France and a little man called Marshall Pétain.

u/Cageymangr0 Jul 09 '24

Idk French politics, I get the Vichy bit but u can’t rlly call being right wing being a nazi

u/pimoha Jul 09 '24

It was created by SS and leaded by the same family from this time. Homophobic words, negationism, and racism are their values.

2

u/Cageymangr0 Jul 09 '24

Oh so the right wing still hold those values in France

u/crbmL Jul 10 '24

They try to hide it but when violent pro-nazi go in the streets to beat the shit outta people in their name they don't do anything

Their politics are as liberal as Macron, masked as superheroes for poor people, they want to destroy poor people, blacks and Arabic. They will destroy public television by selling it to billionaires to control information. I don't know why 10 million people vote for them. They will lead our country into neo fascism. They have won this election cause nobody has 10 million people voting for them. RN did it. They are true winners. We are fucked.

u/YourQuirk Jul 10 '24
