        That’s a perfectly fair perspective, and one that I agree with. Unfortunately, they have all the guns.

            Just curious, are many French people super political/politically active? If yes, then why? Do you guys watch the news a lot, go to “town halls” (sorry, I’m American, idk how your gov works 😔), talk to friends/family about recent policies?

            I wish I could get some of my friends to give a shit about voting, and one of them who didn’t vote in 2024 has the audacity to say “man I wish I voted” a few months ago.

            I’m just curious about what is so socially different in France that gets y’all to rebel so easily. Is it the history? Education? I know no country is perfect, but I hear about France opposing their government often.

            (Side note: neat fact I learned from Literature class, the French gifted the Statue of Liberty to America to also ignote the spirit of revolution and democracy in France 🙂)

        All governments are criminal ALREADY and have been for ever. The question is how much criminal are they right now.

    This monstrosity + the soon-to-be-a-thing-but-no-less-frightening Digital Euro, we EU ‘citizens’ are in for some real good times in regards to our privacy, rights and freedom(s)… Maybe it’s time to consider replacing this meaningless ‘citizen’ word with something more appropriate like, say, ‘serfs’?

    Nope, no /s, here. Just plain sadness :'(

    Shouldn’t there be a legislation that anti-consumer proposals can not be spammed at the legislature to pass them “by exhaustion”? Looks like an obvious attack vector.
