  1. I wonder how french jews feel seeing all those palestinian flags among the protesters, knowing that some of the oct 7 hostages still haven’t been released.

  4. Seems the whole world is fighting against fascism and oligarchy. God speed to the good guys 🙏🏼✊

  7. They shouldnt complain when another Nice style attack happens

  10. Yes yes, “Everything I don’t like is fascist, everyone I don’t like is a nazi, stop the so called racism towards people that won’t respect our rights and culture when they will be the majority in the country. Now excuse me while I go burn the car of an innocent person because I think the manufacturer is literally Goebbels!”.

    It’s always the same old buzzwords that don’t mean anything anymore. And you wonder why more people are turning right…

  12. Its quite weird, this is the only political thread in ” news” / popular. Guess its gone guys. See u on bluesky

  13. French Jew here – some much needed context around these rallies that Le Monde brushed off very quickly all the way at the end of the article:

    – The rallies were partly organized by La France Insoumise, a far-left party that has been embroiled in almost daily antisemitism scandals for the past year and a half, and that has advertised for the rallies using Nazi references including a 30s-style poster of a Jewish journalist and references to “cutting hair to make duvets from it” (a reference to the Holocaust). They took down the poster but refused to apologize for anything.

    – The rallies’ stated purpose were specifically to protest racism and the far-right, and specifically not to protest antisemitism (which is statistically the biggest form of racial hatred in France right now). Nothing wrong with that of course – you don’t have to protest all types of hatred simultaneously, but media articles stating that the rallies were meant to protest antisemitism are plain wrong.

    – There is at least one instance caught on video of protesters at one of the rallies chanting “Down with the State, the Jews, and the fascists!”

    TLDR: These weren’t the wholesome anti-racism rallies that left-wing media is portraying. These rallies were heavily compromised by blatant antisemitism.

  14. As latino from Brazil, I can say thanks god we have France and Europe to save the moral and intelectual property of the world. 

  15. Dear Americans, please take note – this is how you Democracy.

  16. Hey, Americans start taking notes. If you despise what Trump and Co are doing this is what you do not crying on social media. 1% of Harris voters were to show up at the white house which is 750,000 people the jan 6 rioters were 3000 people. Do the math. You could be rid of the buffoon and the rest of Congress easily. Thoughts and prayers do nothing.

  17. Certainly a lot of Palestine flags in that crowd… what’s up with the left cozying up with Islam, you would have thought these 2 groups would be on the opposite ends here (Islam is far right after all)

  18. But French citizens say the biggest problem faced by the country is the far left and the “invaders* they allowed in? Then who are these fraud protesters? Soros agents?

  20. A good motto for the French and other Euros to put on their tombstones once the foreigner demographic takes over and rules over the natives, “We lost our civilization.. But at least we weren’t racist!” Lol.

  21. Good ass message the one from the thumbnail. It can’t get more transparent than that. There was a time when being a neo-nazi was automatically discarded in all sense of the word.

  23. we just don’t want to repeat history. We saw what happened when fascism and hate was in power and a lot of people suffered from it. We don’t want to go back to this.

  24. If you call everyone you disagree with a racist, this is really easy. And of course a complete waste of time. Carry on.

  25. Conservatives are not racist. That is a leftist concept and all of the racists I have ever met are left leaning virtue signalers
