@defi_ecologique So I guess killing men and children is alright?

Also, Macron is the world champion of empty promises that look good on international media.

Finally, is it still illegal to protest in favor of not killing people in France, while millions and millions are making their voice heard in the rest of the world?

@DavidBHimself All agreed, however your initial toot was incorrect.
We're not the last on #MacronBashing, but we also have to support him when he does something right, which is rare enough 😫

@defi_ecologique When he DOES something right. Making announcements not followed by any action whatsoever is not something I'd call "do something right." And he has become a specialist of that in foreign media (because they'll never do a follow-up.)
And honestly, "babies and women" how cynical is that?

Now my original post was not alluding to him at all, but to the fact that the whole world is protesting against the massacre in Gaza, while in France, if I'm correct such protests are illegal, and the word "antisemite" seems to be thrown out pretty easily to anyone trying to voice support for Palestine publicly these days.
