Seems like a pretty reasonable reaction to me? What other notable protests would people who didn’t die 200 years ago think of? I don’t really follow French news, so maybe I’m missing other more recent stuff?
We’re taking about France. I’m American and like BBQ but I’m not going to complain about not following international news when we’re in a fucking thread in a comment section talking about fucking France.
I’d say it’s more of a g8ish centrism. I don’t care about French news in particular. But their protests get a lot of world new attention. I doubt equivalent protests in a place like Hungary would get similar attention, but it would if it were Japan.
As wild pointed out, France has a reputation for frequent and massive protests regularly (compared to places like the US). Like, I was partly joking about the recent news thing because its a meme at this point. Obviously I don’t know what was in the mind of theacharnian, but my first thought was to think about what most recently happened when France made major news for protests against banning protests.

I think youre just massively overreacting because you only know a single moment in fances history.
The obvious answer to “oh, what did they do last time they banned protests?” Is “they started a protest about it.”
France protests at the drop of a hat. Banning one of their top 10 favorite pasttimes is obviously going to cause a protest.
I think you’ve lost the plot.
