I was wondering how she said it in French cause we don’t really have a translation for fuck (that would be “j’emmerde” or “j’encule” in that specific case).
“Fuck aux réacs, fuck à cette extrême droite, fuck à tous ceux qui voudraient nous enfermer dans la guerre de tous contre tous”
Yeah ok, it’s easier that way, well done Madame La Maire de Paris 👌
I realize l’Académie Française frowns at the introduction of English words into the French language, but it feels like they should make an exception in this case.
Unfortunately the Académie Française is mostly full of crusty old men who think they can dictate how the french language evolves, so we rarely care about what they have to say
They should insist that it gets written in the Constitution.
Le peuple français proclame solennellement son attachement aux Droits de l’homme et aux principes de la souveraineté nationale tels qu’ils ont été définis par la Déclaration de 1789 […]
En vertu de ces principes et de celui de la libre détermination des peuples, la République proclame Fuck aux réacs, fuck à cette extrême droite, fuck à tous ceux qui voudraient nous enfermer dans la guerre de tous contre tous.
Yes it could be “Qu’ils aillent se faire foutre” as well.
So many ways of saying fuck according to different situations, it is better that she said “fuck” as a french version would have been too vulgar and would have provoked some political scandal.

Fuck l’Académie Française as well.
Fuck everything

We should have elected this guy.
I assume you wrote that on le computer.
Exactement. With the clavier.

I want to etch this above my home’s front door
Certified not Quebecois
Fuck is like their word for eh
deleted by creator
That is what I said
Oh, sorry, I misunderstood. Nevermind then.
I for one embrace the use of fuck in french as new word.
Je fucke
Tu fuckes
Il/Elle fucke
Nous fuckons
Vous fuckez
Ils/Elles fuckont
Or you can optionally drop the standard conjugation and just say fuck, idk. Also, “je the vais fucker” for “imma fuck you up”
Ils/elles fuckent
Je vais te fucker
Couldn’t you use something with putain instead, like « putain de réacs » ?
Yes you can, but it won’t be the same meaning.
“Putain d’extrême droite” would be “fucking far right” and not “fuck the far right”.
That’s not much but one is being annoyed at something, the other is actively insulting something.
Maybe something like “qu’ils aillent se faire foutre” lol

I’m partial to “j’encule,” which also would work in that context.
