Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.

Rules:

-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --

-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --

-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --

-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today/ . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --

-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--

-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--

-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --

-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

Good thing the French have made such a reputation for themselves to protest within the bounds of the law in the last 20 years

[–] underisk@lemmy.ml 60 points 1 year ago

Country that resents its large Muslim population bans support for sympathetic cause. Brightest minds at work in france-cool

Liberte, egalite, fraternite. Wait, no, not for us-foreign-policy you us-foreign-policy

Fucking insane that you can't cover your fucking hair. "Oh we're a secular state" maybe you should have thought about that before you invaded and subjugated half of north africa you fucks!~

They had a revolution, but kept enslaving Haiti.

also it's not secular to ban religious expression that is very much taking a religious stance.

It's as secular to ban Islamic religious wear for not being athiest as it would be to ban it for not being Christian

France would rather be islamophobic than deal with their bed bugs problem

[–] Mardoniush@hexbear.net 12 points 1 year ago

Bold stategy. Let's see how banning protests has historically worked out for them

[–] wahwahwah@hexbear.net 12 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Not sure if anyone listens to French media, but they're more rabidly pro-Israel than even the American media. Quotidien, their equivalent of The Daily Show, had this loser on and the one vaguely progressive pannalist genuinely looked scared trying to push back.
