Emmanuel Macron celebrating the ceremony commemorating the Allied victory over Nazi Germany on May 8, 1945, on the Champs-Elysées. To avoid any protests, a perimeter was set up around the Champs-Elysées and all gatherings were forbidden.

  7. When you’re the leader of a democracy and you have to take such measures because it’s either that or violence then maybe self reflection should be in order, not for Macron though.

  19. Celebrating peace before flying to an active fighting zone *in your own country* just hours later is… bold.

  20. France will be the first ones to mock other countries over lack of democracy.

    The EU critics that approve of the EU but are concerned over leadership have every right to feel the way they do. People like Macron pushing the EU in one direction while Poland, Sweden, etc pushing it in another.

    He absolutely backs the laws in France that make it illegal to make certain insults to the President, he even lectured a teenager infront of national cameras about addressing him as Mr. President. These are the exact things dictators do, the absolution.

    And those that are EU critics or against Macron arent all on the polar opposite. For example, I’m an EU critic but also against Macron. I hate Marion Le Pen and I strongly support the EU so these people saying “oh oh then you must love <insert opposing extreme here>” across the internet.. no, there are people that don’t like any of it that know there can be better and France deserves better, so does the EU.

  28. It’s fake guys, there’s no one in this place for that specific celebration. The public is behind.

  30. Two Minutes Hate: “The next moment a hideous, grinding speech, as of some monstrous machine running without oil, burst from the big telescreen at the end of the room. It was a noise that set one’s teeth on edge and bristled the hair at the back of one’s neck. The Hate had started. As usual, the face of Emmanuel Goldstein, the Enemy of the People, had flashed on to the screen. There were hisses here and there among the audience…

  31. They elected him literally 1 year ago and now they complain and talk about dictatorship lol….
