I sometimes wonder whether Macronman already can fly even if not wearing a cape.

This time the unrest stems from years of tensions that have been brewing between police and France’s working-class minorities, many of them Muslim, who reside in the country’s banlieues, or city outskirts.
I’ve even seen video reports of automatic weapons being fired into the air by these poor misunderstood youth.

A hard life does not give the right to create havoc..

I say the French multicultural experience has failed.

Of course we should consider the big picture too.

This war [in Ukraine] isn’t about tanks and jets only. Putin might be performing poorly on the battlefield but don’t forget he is a KGB guy and he thinks differently than many leaders in the West. I firmly believe you’ll see more and more protests and government instability in the West. He wants this war to be an endless war so he exhausts us and we give up. Don’t forget that Russian strategists openly stated “In the ongoing revolution in information technologies, information and psychological warfare will largely lay the groundwork for victory.” - Ivana Stradner

Shouldn't your comment have been posted in our Ukraine thread ?

Thats what you get if you import plenty of migrants from a Muslim country that the native population does not want and never wanted. All complaints about this not being politically incorrect, are meaningless. Truth is what the media in a simplified way call "racism", stems from this simple truth. France imported so many Algerian migrants, last but not least for a bad conscience due to their war, that natives' sentiments clash with cultural-ideological differences. The result is not poltically correct, but the reality, and it is human, all aroudn the world: resentment by the native local population which got fed what it never wanted, at least not at these dimensions.



Progressive dont realise this because it does not fit their ideological worldview of all humans being equal and of one and the same kind. They maybe should be equal before a court, but they certainly are not all of the same kind. Not cultgurally, not socially, not regarding mentlaity, not even regarding certain metabolical factors. Never were equal, never will be.



Damn, now I said something dirty again. I toast myself.

I believe you mentioned all of the above several years ago already

Look like the chickens have come home to roost.

Yes I have, and the events are not really surprising. The causes have not changed since then. Maybe just turned worse - but that better the French must answer themselves.

All this today is differently caused than the yellow jacket demonstrations.

Its not the first time the banlieues boil over. Similiar potentials you have in Sweden, Denmark, Netherlands, Germany, the UK.

One also must discrimiante between different migrant group's cultural origin, they are not all the same, are not all a problem.Another thing we are not allowed to mention anymore over here... At least not if we do not want to get brandmarked, socially sanctioned, character-assassinated in the media, and sh!tstormed over...


Realities today get defined as condensate of ideology. The result is like trying to eat a decoration fruit made of wood and paint.

Damn, now


Don't take in immigrants that can't speak your language,are not willing to accept your country's culture and laws as they are. If they have no work skills and no money to support themselves and all their family members that are sure to follow....Send them BACK. If they want what your country has...let them fight and change their own governments. First world countries have been built on the bodies of their own citizens who fought each other for their country's destiny.There's no other way,..you can't accept kindness and help from other countries and then destroy their cities,beatdown citizens,rob and pillage at will,unless you had no respect for them in the first place. If that is the case,it is time for you to go BACK to your own homeland.
