The French deserve some respect. If you want to know what a true strike or protest looks like, look to the French.
More and more these days French disrespect feels like boomer shit. Look what the French did when the government came for their pensions. The industrial action within the transport sector alone.
I was visiting Paris during some of the aforementioned protest. They’re out and about (in numbers) and will gladly get out to protest when they feel it necessary. Plenty of other western countries could learn, a lot, from the French people.
I keep saying this and people look at me like I'm some kind of extremist
Like no dude I just want universal healthcare
*me, looking at you like you're some sort of communist
I remember when Obama promised us that. Good times.
The American right would like to categorize it like that but it's not communism at all, it's socialism. I wish they could mischaracterize the correct political philosophy.
