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.
You know damned well what was implied and the fact you are trying and failing to imply this wasnt a dog whistle is fucking insulting.
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.
