    It’s a smoke screen to get right wing voters on their side once again. Public services in France are in shambles, our education is getting noticeably worse by the decade and this is what these fucks focus on.

      That makes sense. Here in Canada they use similar tactics to distract people from stuff like the astronomical cost of housing, crumbling health care, underfunded education, etc.

        Yeah, last year the conversation was about banning crop tops and this year it’s long dresses, every September there’s something to talk about in french schools.

      Exactly this, and it’s the perfect example of how “progressives” (that aren’t really that) enable fascism.

        No one is calling Frances government “progressive” so why are you attaching that label to this?

        This is an example how right wing capitalists enable fascism.

        Our government hides it less and less. They are basically proto fascists that would do anything to help their rich friends keep their power.
