To be honest, it is the same here. The old scholars are mostly for show (and weird ass polemics).

We should have elected this guy.

Exactement. With the clavier.

Fuck l’Académie Française as well.

Missed that one, good catch!

With even more Scientology I’m sure, somehow.

Couldn’t agree more.

Weapons grade.

Because we only have a relative majority and now Macron is teaming up with the hard right (not the far right, the other right right that is not center right… Yeah, too much right is wrong) to deprive us of any path to government. Shit sucks. But it could have sucked way harder.

We’re trying real hard not to let them do this shit again. But god is it tiring…

Yeah that’s the issue with them, their products are not that bad at first glance and they have a lot of evangelists online (it was particularly egregious on reddit but it is still the case here). I wasn’t throwing any shade at you.

Search engines pretty much all suck nowadays. I’ve stuck with DDG lately, but they also have their issues apparently.

Thanks for the kind words, much appreciated and have a great day.

On topic, I have no opinion on Vivaldi, never used it. But then again I’ve been on Firefox for the last 15 years so… I’m a bit of a lost cause!

Vivaldi slipped my mind, my bad. No need for that tone though.

I don’t think you’re replying to my comment though, I never mentioned nor used Vivaldi.

Edit: brainfart, my bad.

Yet another reason why people shouldn’t be using Brave.

Pretty sure the OP was a troll, actually.

Anyhow, if you want specifics, we currently have 90 far right MPs in Congress and even our “centrist” government and the “classic right” seem to have decided muslims are to blame for everything. This includes and is not limited to :

• banning “muslim adjacent” wear like abbayas from schools ;
• a broad offensive to remove pork free meals from school lunches in some cities ;
• à brutal crackdown on any pro Palestinian action, including summons from anti terrorism units that have targeted union leaders, students and leftwing MPs ;
• targeting of muslim private schools for closure whereas radical catholic schools are absolutely fine even when they teach gay people are all rapists (see Lycée Stanislas for a very striking example) ;
• repeated incidents of police disproportionately targeting muslims ;
• a general attitude of paranoia regarding anything muslim : last year our Home Office equivalent actually asked primary schools to provide a list of pupils that missed class because of specifically muslim religious holidays.

I’m sure I’m forgetting a lot of things. But also, I can see everyday around me how hard muslim people, but also any arab looking person, have it in the public eye. The far right is on the rise politically but also socially. Anything that “does not belong”, be it LGBTQ, non white people, etc is increasingly targeted by pressure groups of "concerned citizens ", “protector of the peace,”, “defender of children” and so on. It worries me. A lot.

Because Muslims are increasingly marginalised, disenfranchised and used as a scapegoat for everything that goes bad?

So much this. Our rightwing is hellbent on importing every single moral panic from the US to detract from their blunders and authoritarianism.

Yeah you’re right, as long as they only victimise and kill their own people it’s JUST FINE.

God, the shit people write sometimes…

Same thing here. What the fuck is this?
