  1.  @newworldorder7  Europeans adapt in other European countries. Many migrants outside of the EU don't. They are just here for money and no interest in learning the language, the culture and most importantly the laws and values. If migrants are mad that Europeans don't want them anymore, they should complain to the ones already here who destroyed our vision of them.

  2. If Denmark's biggest political scandal is this mink mess, then I can safely assume everything is going well in the country.

  4. Don't underestimate the ability of people to vote against their own interests.

  5. "Russian people need to have hope" "Let's make Russia pay" Y'all have some weird domination fantasies.

  6.  @bahrmcc1041  What do you think "LGBT things" are? Rainbows? Historical figures like Alexander the Great or Leonardo Da Vinci? Gay or lesbian couples shown on TV holding hands?

  7.  @zerto111  Problem, most of the non-EU migrants don't integrate.
    17
  8.  @리주민  How is it concerning? If they think the party in question is incompatible with their own values, why should they be forced to collaborate?
    16
  9.  @MrBandholm  We should just give them back to Russia 🙄
    16
  10.  @ernstschmidt4725  I'm not that sure. As a Mélenchon voter, I have to recognize that France has moved to the right and Mélenchon is quite a divisive politician. Ranked choice voting does favor centrist candidates.

  11.  @zoomerboomer1396  Are you sure about that? If you remove the "R" from Hungary, it makes Hungay which is quite gay to me...
    14
  12.  @n0visual541  Palestine is getting erased and there's no peaceful means to avoid it. What are they supposed to do? Bargain their dignity?
    14
  13.  @Fireinthesky67  You're criticizing your own people though.
    14
  14.  @desireandfire  That's called the Great Replacement theory and people aren't usually big fans of seeing their nation, culture and ethnicity erased.

  15.  @evolassunglasses4673  You know you can be skeptical towards any power, right?

  18. Let's send them to the US. After, they are the ones behind the wars in Iraq, Afghanistan and promoted the Arab Spring in Syria.
    10
  19.  @paulallen579  They are NOT refugees for the most part, they are economic migrants. Don't tell me there isn't a safe country between Afghanistan and Europe. There's plenty with closer cultures and values: Pakistan, Iran, India, Central Asia etc.

  20.  @rockon3375  You mean the same Russians that are struggling in Ukraine???
    10
  21.  @Intreductor  I know you're a old fart but the USSR has been dismantled 30 years ago.
    10
  22. Where do you live? Presidential elections are the most important in France so having more than a quarter of voters not showing up to the polls is a lot. I'm also quite mad at them, Mélenchon was 1 point away from Le Pen. The second round would have been way more interesting with a left wing candidate rather than having a remake of the 2017 election. On the other hand, the media kept saying that it was going to be Le Pen vs Macron for years so I understand why they didn't vote out of weariness.

  23.  @LevisH21  Also, forgot the storming of the Capitol? Hypocrite.

  24.  @eljanrimsa5843  How? Taubira is so vapid and her only success in this campaign was to add yet another candidate on the left. She's absolutely useless.

  26.  @coderentity2079  Oh no, a union of democracies don't want an authoritarian state inside them... How weird.

  27. As someone who admires architecture but doesn't like the generic and nameless buildings showcased on the banknote, I disagree.
    9
  28. Yes but people are tired of this dynamic so more and more people don't go to vote anymore.

  29.  @LevisH21  STFU Yankee.

  30.  @numega7323  "Refugees". They aren't for the most part and these so called refugees travel through dozens of SAFE nations before setting a foot in Europe.
    8
  31.  @jamesgrover2005  Ah yes, rich people definitely do not exploit migrants to keep wages down for everyone and ethnic diversity doesn't threaten social cohesion. Thinking we can handle all the misery in the world is the biggest scam the left has been responsible of.
    8
  32. Yeah many people fighting on the Ukrainian side are Russian-speaking Ukrainians. Putin's rationale behind "let's bring all Russians together" is the dumbest nationalist propaganda.
    8
  33. "Disapproving tweets" OMG so harsh, so scary.
    8
  34. Nope, it's just as bad. It's also a first-past-the-post system.
    8
  35.  @paulallen579  "Investigating". No they aren't. It's impossible to verify the past of thousands of migrants at once. They let them in without any real check.
    8
  36. Hell no, no wants the PS or the LR (moderate left and right) to come back. They have fused into Macron's party LREM and it just shows that there's no difference between the two of them.
    8
  37. Can you annex France?
    8
  38.  @mistekfcio  Well, many in Macron's party hold similar views against "gender theory being taught in school" and gay marriage... This sounds so weird to me to see conservative politicians go against Hungary on something they agree with deep down. This law sounds just like the Christian right's basic talking points on these issues. It sucks but I don't see why it triggered that response from other EU leaders.
    8
  39.  @Lapantouflemagic0  The left does offer solutions but they are not given any airtime unlike the far-right so obviously, the far right gains support.
    8
  40.  @Morning404  Just re-read your comment. Mass migration is an issue since it fuels division among the working class. Honestly, we can blame both the cause (billionaires) and the consequences (unchecked immigration that lowers wages and fuels ethnic tensions).
    8
  41. That being said, Mélenchon has always been a huge supporter of the 6th Republic and he made fighting against the "presidential monarchy" a central part of his agenda. During each of his presidential run (2012, 2017, 2022), he's organized "marches for the 6th Republic", gathering around 100,000-130,000 in Paris. So while I also believe the powers of the 5th Republic can be tempting, I think Mélenchon is being honest on this issue. At least, we need someone who openly criticizes and wants to change our rotten political system unlike Macron and Le Pen who love the 5th Republic and its authoritarianism.
    7
  42.  @scratchy996  Chill. Putin's Russia is nowhere near Nazi Germany.
    7
  43.  @sd3776  No, it's because what's the point of worrying? You waste your precious time being anxious. If there's a war, too bad. If there's none, good. But there's nothing ordinary people can do as individuals to stop it. So better enjoy peace while it lasts.
    7
  44.  @richardides2035  Easy to get that support when you curb freedom of speech and media diversity...
    7
  45. If they don't want to fight civilians hen why are there so many mass graves of tortured Ukrainians in liberated towns?
    6
  46. Mélenchon's voters are really split. One third will vote Macron, one third will vote Marine Le Pen and one third will abstain. I will personally abstain because I'm tired of all this BS.
    5
  47.  @varana  Except Russia has Belarus's back. And Russia has gas. And Germany was dumb enough to shut down its nuclear power plants before its coal/gas/oil power plants and therefore needs Russian gas. So yeah, nothing will happen just like nothing happened during the violent repression of the protests against Lukashenko's re-election.
    5
  48.  @paulallen579  Then blame those who had the luxury to come in Europe and chose to mess around instead of integrating. Europeans are not martyrs.
    5
  49.  @pppLT19  Well, the West should clean its own mess before acting like it's fighting for freedom.

  50.  @stooge_mobile  Who actually stood up to the US when it went on a global rampage? No one. Y'all act like Russia has set these precedents when the US, lsrael and the West in general have.

  51.  @Debre.  Cringe.
    5
  52.  @awonoto  Both of these clowns came to ppwer after years of boring neoliberal rule. If the far right doesn't win in 2022 in France, it will definitely in 2027. The margin is getting closer and closer. We are just delaying the inevitable thanks to useless shills like Macron.

  56. They can focus on nature. Plants, animals and geographical features such as rivers, seas, mountains, landscapes won't create controversy. They can also sprinkle some Greco-Roman mythology or showcase some EU projects like the European Space Agency.

  57. What? I see literally no correlation between the Roman borders and the Iron Curtain.

  58. Israel is a crazy country to begin with.

  60.  @TheKoKsOnePL  They chose to join the EU, they have to abide by the European rules. If they don't want to, they should leave and say goodbye to the billions of EU funding they get.

  61.  @giovy1922  To be honest, it's also EU's fault for signing such a bad contract with AstraZeneca.

  62. Yeah, let's make Russia even more revanchist, what a great idea! Y'all are out of your mind if you think anything will happen to Russia's borders.

  64.  @Pindasaus  North. It's cold.

  65. It would require changing its voting system from first-past-the-post to something more proportional.

  67.  @indrinita  He was the Minister of Economy in François Hollande's government. Our "Parti socialiste" has been a neoliberal party for quite a while now, just like many formerly social democratic parties in Europe (British Labour, German SPD, Italian PD). Our so-called "socialists" propelled him and allowed him to gain power.

  68.  @imperators_8700  So just like the US military.

  69.  @shingitheduke  And Indians fought bravely against European colonization. We will do the same against Islamization and population replacement.

  70.  @LuisAldamiz  Produced doesn't mean consumed. Most of Germany electric consumption was produced using coal. They could have reduced fossil fuels if they stuck with nuclear a little longer.

  73. Not really but we definitely should 😅

  74. The Citizens Convention for Climate was a great democratic experiment that came up with ambitious proposals but as always, Macron killed it. Our future constitutional assembly should have a certain number of members being picked at random among the population, like Mélenchon suggests.

  79. I'm pretty sure plants, animals, landscapes won't make people mad. The current design is very boring and almost soulless.

  80. Yes but France first and foremost needs to remove power from the president and give more to the parliament and prime minister/government. Also make legislative elections fully proportional.
    3
  81.  @elihor  It's not changing the subject. The subject is about territorial integrity, unilateral independence and historical precedents. Kosovo is a historical precedent.

  82. 🤢 Ah yes, poor people don't work enough.

  83.  @oscarosullivan4513  He and his government do target minorities. They call the left "Islamo-leftism" (eerily similar to that Judeo-Bolshevik conspiracy), they start stupid moral panics that are similar to those of the GOP (against the French version of the pronoun "they" etc), Macron quoted a far right thinker (Maurras) and paid homage to Pétain. Just because you don't hear about it doesn't mean it doesn't happen.

  87. Can someone tell me what's the problem with Sanchez, he seems fine.
    3
  88.  @toromontana8290  No, a child is better raised by two loving parents, whether biological or not. Do you want to outlaw adoption as well? Put single mothers like Meloni's own mother to jail and send their children to adoption or in the foster system? Italy can't afford to make it harder to have children, they literally have a demography crisis.
    3
  89.  @lyampetit144  How so? There are no real coalitions for presidential elections. Maybe smaller parties will support the larger one but at the end of the day, it's just one candidate getting elected, not a Parliament. Mitterrand and Chirac both got re-elected.

  91.  @waldo8040  I want an immigration system like in the Gulf countries. You can come here to work and then you have to leave. No more "we let the whole world settle here and then not integrate, bringing racial and religious tensions". And obviously, we need to invest in automation and in business abroad so we can finance the pension system.

  101.  @comradedawid5292  So for a few woke wackos you want to discriminate all LGBT people? Because this law extends to every gay, lesbian and bi people, regardless if they believe in this non-binary BS. And are you really willing to give up on your democratic institutions (like Orban is currently to do) just to piss off 0.002% of the population?

  111. As ChrisGrump said, it was either him or Le Pen. Both options are shit. I personally didn't vote during the second round. My candidate didn't qualify (Mélenchon, populist left, ~21% of the votes IIRC) after the first round. Since the left was divided, the vote was split among too many irrelevant candidates (the socialist candidate had like 1 or 2%, the communist candidate had maybe 3% and the green one had 4%) which combined could have sent Mélenchon to the second round instead of Le Pen. Many people don't vote anymore because our voice doesn't matter, it's always boomers deciding for us by electing neoliberal stooges.

  114.  @andrewrobinson2565  That's actually a wrong explanation. The impure blood is the one of the enemies, not the revolutionaries.
    2
  115.  @andrewrobinson2565  Have you really read it? La Marseillaise is a war song, it is bloodthirsty by nature. Apart from the "qu'un sang impur abreuve nos sillons" (impure blood), there are references to throat slitting, breeding soldiers to replace those who have died on the battlefield, vengeful arms and sacrificing yourself to honor your ancestors.
    2
  116. Foreign policy is what matters the most to you? Do you live abroad? And even if you value foreign policy over the rest, what about the submarine contract with Australia that was cancelled in favor of the US? He did nothing. Did you also forget how he sold off parts of Alstom focused on nuclear technology to General Electric? Now we have to buy it back for 12 billion dollars more! He's ruining France and he isn't defending our interests but only his and those of America. This term had brought nothing positive, it was filled with corruption, scandals and attacks on our welfare state. You are the reason why France is crumbling, you guys have no working memory.

  121. Don't bother looking into French politics. It's a hellhole which will make you even more tired of humans.

  122. IDK either. I'm so tired of my country and the political "discourse" that has been turned into a shitshow thanks to the few billionaires owning the media and giving the spotlight to people like Zemmour (backed by Bolloré, a billionaire who owns several TV channels).

  128. The legislative elections don't have any effect now. They are held right after the presidential election and the winning candidate's party gets almost all the seats. The other parties can't win because their voters are demoralized.

  132.  @patami2222  Article 49.3 has only led to the fall of one government in 60+ years. It's definitely in favor of the president and executive branch, as other said because the president can threaten to dissolve the National Assembly.

  137. The current design is incredibly boring and lifeless. In a way, it accurately captures the EU's spirit. An entity without humans made of only faceless buildings, a cold bureaucratic empire that only exists to promote trade and economic exchanges (bridges). There's nothing special about it, it only smashes together all of our cultures and heritage to create some kind of low quality ersatz.

  143. Maybe. I think people are tired of this new "Macron vs Le Pen" trope pushed by the media and unreliable opinion polls. They maybe want the old "Socialist Party vs Les Républicains" back.

  144.  @gogolghosh5426  Looking at the number, it is. The situation is still horrible and it shows how hypocritical the West is but it's a low intensity conflict.

  152.  @Gnomgnash  But it's not the type of resignation you'd expect, it's just a formal one so that she can form a new government, she doesn't actually steps down as the PM. So yeah, it's a little bit misleading especially since they don't explain it clearly.

  153. I agree and I don't want heterosexuality shoved down my throat either! So many rom-coms, ads featuring straight couples, even men and women holding hands in the streets... Absolutely disgusting.

  157.  @Lapantouflemagic0  The 4th Republic was embroiled in the decolonization process. Belgium is divided mainly because of cultural differences rather than a political issue. Why do you focus on what doesn't work when Germany is doing fine with a proportional system?

  158.  @ekx5120  This election showed that the left can unite and form coalitions. It's still a good sign.
    2
  159. We are being bombarded with weekly scandals manufactured by the media and pundits against left-wing parties. Even the so called centrists in Macron's government use far right and Le Pen's talking point. Such as "islamo-gauchisme" (Islamo-leftism) which resembles eerily to Judeo-Bolchevism, "ensauvagement" meaning that France becomes savage (dogwhistle against minorities). And French people buy it...
    2
  160. Of course it can't stand to it, neoliberalism directly leads to the far right's rise! They violently oppose left wing politics while creating a false dichotomy between them and the far right to win.

  161. By the way, you sound like a crazy lunatic.

  373. As someone from France, I'd like to apologize for what my country has done to the Libyan people. Our former president Sarkozy is a corrupt POS and he used our military as a private militia to destroy evidence that Gaddafi bribed him. I hope he will end up in prison soon.

  376. LOL, if the meaning of the "One China Policy" changes every other day, don't expext us to follow you every little whim of the PRC. Sorry that we feel more solidarity with a fellow democracy than an oversensitive big power wannabe. We already have the US doing that part, we don't need another crazy empire.

  381. No, his response to the COVID crisis was absolutely shameful. I'm not talking about the 'pass sanitaire' but how Agnès Buzyn left the Ministry of Healthcare right when the pandemic started after minimizing the risks for months. How Sibeth Ndiaye lied about masks being useless. How in the early days of the pandemic, we could have tested way more people but laboratories were unable to because of administrative obstacles. How classrooms don't have air purifiers. How working from home wasn't strictly enforced.

I've never really heard about any of this in school from teachers, from kindergarten to high school. It was brought up by other students however. This is a scare campaign by Orban about "turning kids gay"...

  392. "Qualified migrants"? Where? They don't even speak the local languages. Also, I don't know if you are aware but we are in an even more important crisis called "climate change" caused mainly by consumerism. So no, "more consumers" isn't better.

  396.  @mck1513  At the very beginning, when the NSDAP was a minor party, it was somewhat socialist until Hitler hijacked the party. He pushed for anti-socialist policies and in doing so he atteavred a lot of support from wealthy industrialists. Once in power, the Nazis banned unions and put actual socialists, communists and Jews in camps. So no, they were just fascists and only used socialist rhetoric as a façade (just like Marine Le Pen does).

    1
  417.  @chris7263  Third parties are basically powerless in France at a national level. If we currently have several parties battling for power, it's because the former two-party system (Socialist Party and The Republicans) collapsed and is getting replaced by this Macron vs Le Pen duel.
    1
  418. Both. Nationalisation has been slowly repealed because of the European Commission policies and prices are rising.

  425.  @Lapantouflemagic0  1000 years? Are you out of your mind? In the Middle Ages, local nobility just swore fidelity to their overlord, the French king didn't rule everything from Paris. He just ruled the Ile-de-France. Forgot your history lesson on feudalism? In the year 1000, duchies had a large scale of powers, Britanny was independent, Burgundy and Eastern France was in the Holy Roman Empire. Centralization in France arose to prominence with Louis XIV who was traumatised from the Fronde (revolt of the French nobility during his childhood). It continued with the French Revolution which erased local customary laws and local parliaments. You want to know why we need more decentralization? Then look at how many people dislike Paris and its elites, how strong dissatisfaction is against elected national officials, how disconnected politicians are from the people's needs. Look at how the number of people who don't vote is exploding. Look at how local French cultures are disappearing. France's institutions are deeply dysfunctional. They definitely need a change.
    1
  426.  @somebonehead  To preserve local cultures. To have elected officials closer to the French people and their everyday lives. To make regions more reactive to urgent local needs rather than to wait for the central state in Paris which will more than likely ignore them. To experiment more easily new laws, regulations and public services at a local level. If it works in Germany, why not in France? Moreover, if we look to the opinion of the French people in their institutions, the more removed an elected official is, the less trustworthy they are. French people trust their mayor (53%) and their regional council more (41%) than the president (33%) and the French parliament (29%).

  432.  @RWKIN  How is it different though?
    1
  433.  @pppLT19  How? It was pretty similar in my opinion.
    1
  434.  @pppLT19  Someone could be arrested. If Edward Snowden was actually on that plane like France, Italy and Spain were suspecting, there's no doubt that he would have been sent to the US. The Spanish ambassador in Austria told Morales that the plane would need to be inspected for it to fly over Spain. Just goes to show that Western Europe is still America's little bitch and that whistle-blowers are not protected in the so-called free world. By the way, didn't see any real reaction to Khashoggi actual murder by this lovely democratic and liberal paradise that is Saudi Arabia.

  435. Not just that bill but rather all their attacks on democracy and the rule of law.

  437.  @chrislouis7913  WTF, Poland and Hungary? You want to turn Germany into a corrupt kleptocracy that has no regard for the rule of law and freedom of the press?
    1
  438. As if an institution like the EU couldn't focus on several issues at the same time. Banknotes are among the many symbols of a nation. If the EU wants to create a (supra-)national pride, it has to work on its image.

  446. Maybe but this time we are absolutely tired of this complete shitshow. I personally won't show up to the polls if it's a Macron vs Le Pen second round.
    1
  447. If there's a general mobilization, Russians will protest but it if it happens, it will be a bloodbath since Putin has been militarizing its police. Imagine Iran and Russia both experiencing successful revolts... I wonder which enemy the US military industrial complex will come up with. More tensions with North Korea and China? Another wave of Islamic terrorism? Will they target Africa? Or will Russia and Iran still remain anti-American (as they should).
    1
  448. That shows how much the political discourse in France has shifted to the far right. Even Zemmour isn't introduced in TV shows as extreme but just as another candidate albeit a polemical one.

  471.  @LeMAD22  Absolutely not. But keep believing that, boomer.
    1
  472. No, his first term was just as bad. Remember how he violently repressed the Gilets Jaunes (Yellow Vests) movement? How he said nothing about police brutality (Steven, Cédric Chouviat, Zineb Redouane)? Privatized many public companies? How his bodyguard went undercover during Labor Day and hit protesters? How he removed the wealth tax? How he spent BILLIONS on private council firms? How he handled the covid crisis? Macron has always been an awful president working for the oligarchy.
    1
  473.  @johndoe-cd9vt  That's bullshit. We also pay high contributions. And who cares if other countries let their elderly die before they can retire? The US is not a model for us, fight for your rights instead of forcing us to conform with your complete lack of morals and values.
    1
  474.  @milantoth6246  Economic growth? What economic growth? What about Macron's economic policy of "tax cuts and corporate welfare for the rich"? You guys are r-worded and brainwashed by neoliberalism. A little investments from the government and it's the end of the world. Is that your opinion about Biden's infrastructure's bill too?

They are non-existing generic buildings, represented in the most boring way, with no reference to the cultural and historical background (Ancient Roman/Greek religions, Christianity, industrial revolution) that made these architectural styles possible. There are no human figures. No animals or plants. These banknotes are lifeless. Period.

  489. "Even if it makes my life a little more uncomfortable" You literally have to sacrifice nothing whereas in the EU we are f%cking over our economy for your proxy war and countries from Africa and Asia are at risk of a famine due to Russian and Ukrainian exports of cereals stopping. That's why you guys love war so much, it's never on your soil and you never have to face the consequences. We in Europe have to deal with the aftermath of your rampage in Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya and have to welcome millions of refugees. You're just like Russia or even worse.
