1. Putain France24 votre titre !!!

   > Darmanin said the statement was “something that resembles a claim”, but “we must be careful because it could be an opportunistic claim”.

   It is not “likely” it is “possibly” damnit !!

3. If it turns out to be true, I honestly hope we adopt laws across the whole EU that will consider any far left people to be terrorists and put them into jail. This means every person that openly supports communism or socialism, or praises Stalin, Mao etc.. Such creatures are equal to ISIS terrorists.

4. Based

5. shows once again, every extremist ist stupid. don’t care which side

6. Wow, Darmanin who just spent 2 years blaming the far-left for everything blames the far-left for something.

7. Wait…it wasn’t Russia? But this sub was so sure!

8. We need the Political Center back!
   We need to send the far left to Gaza and the far right to Hungary.

9. B-b-but reddit told me it was definitely russia!

10. I never miss an opportunity to say this: there’s nothing worse than communists.

11. The attempts of this sub to shift the blame elsewhere are hilarious…

12. I’m quite well into the left-wing myself, being an anarcho-syndicalist, but I would never support the use of violence. I like to think that the one thing that makes the difference between left and right and their extreme versions are the means used to achieve their respective visions of an ideal society.
    For me, it’s voting, unionising, and when the situation is dire, peaceful striking.
    These people, by opressing others, will not help the opressed, but only permeate the cycle of opression forever.

13. Russia say it in the title

14. The fuck are they complaining about though? I mean the far left has all the power now in France and everything will be so peachy for them lol .

15. Mr Darmanin is sure jumping to conclusions pretty quickly. The sabotage might have been commited by far left people, we don’t yet know. But after seeing his political positions, I can see that he is already trying to use this to his advantage.

16. From the article: “Far-left French **anarchists**” are thought to be the perpetrators. This has nothing to do with communists, let alone the mainstream left.

17. What is “ultra left”?

    Considering this comes from a far-right politician, this sounds like someone trying to score political points.

18. >A statement signed by “an unexpected delegation” was sent to several news media outlets expressing support for the sabotage and criticising the Olympic Games as being a “celebration of nationalism” and the oppression of peoples by nation states.

    This seems interesting…

19. Left wing extremism doesn’t exist, that it’s being called left wing clearly just shows this as blatant smearing.

20. wait til it is revealed it’s part of the opening ceremony
