oh to be French. I put the news on mute in the background of what i was doing because politics took a turn tonight so there’s improvised protests all over the country and i wanted to keep an eye on them.

I got to see how the protests started to organize and everything. Looked down to play a game.

I’m looking up again and apparently people set a police station on fire.

So this is going well.

EDIT: AND A CHURCH RIGHT AFTERWARD??????????????????

#'why on mute' because the journalists are fucking annoying that's what #see you have two options for the news in France:#either you have news in continue held by right-wing chanels who are often pro-establishment pro-cops pro-far right #or you have news sparses during the day by left-wing chanels #why? because leftwing chanels want to factchecks stuff before reporting on it #Commandable attitude but therefore they're not up to date to what's going on most of the time #so i have to have the right wing chanels on #and they keep inviting the police and the far right to discuss the whole thing and i'm going to fucking scream #SO YEAH i'm just watching and if stuff happens i unmute to try to get facts before they start spewing opinions #BUT YEAH.#oh french escalation <3 #im not going to approve of that though #esp after how the situation at Bordeaux went on where a far right group set the mayorhouse's door on fire #and the minister of police pinned it on the far left because the far right are respectable people in his mind <333333 #fucking gagging. having a centrist president sucks. both sides hate him for different reasons and then this type of bullshit happens #ichatalks
