Re: French Government Prohibits Protesting and Freedom of Speech – Major Crack Down
Hear, hear. It's always occurred to me that rioters (and even terrorists) always pick the wrong targets. *Disclaimer: I don't support terrorism.* But that guy who flew his plane into an IRS building? He knew what he was doing. The 9/11 terrorists? They at least hit the Pentagon. What I'm saying is that the gripes are almost completely with government institutions and the judicial system (like the Rodney King riots, etc.), but the rioters don't end up storming a courthouse; they break into shops and loot stuff. It makes total sense if you're a cynic like me who thinks that greed drives most people's behavior, but rioting doesn't accomplish much for whatever the cause is except for media attention. Terrorism accomplishes a lot, but not in a good way for anyone.
Leaving aside terrorists...all the latest protest I've seen are more anarchist orientated than actually demanding anything.
How were the IRS and the USSS ( Oklahoma bombing) buildings rebuilt?
With tax money. With what money where the injured treated and the relatives of the dead compensated? Tax money!!
I remember some funny footage from the Romanian protest two years ago, people almost trampling each other in the subway, blocking the entire central square in Bucharest, protesting peacefully against the government while the government building was....empty and all those officials where at home enjoying their dinner while thousands had to spend hours in traffic to get home after real work.
The whole stuff again with the BLM movement, most of the stuff they destroyed was in their own neighborhood, not like any of the "culprits" let's say as I am no fan of BLM was even bothered by it. Greek protest, setting aflame the only surviving shops in the center of Athens and sending more people to the unemployment office? And the French excel at hurting the average Joe with their protest, every damn year farmers block roads and disrupt traffic punishing their own customers while the government officials fly with their helicopters avoiding them all.
After all, what do those "yellow bests" even want? Oh, money! It doesn't matter how but we want money.
Wanting more money while disrupting the economy and causing billions in losses doesn't seem like a bright plan to me...but who knows....
In the end, everyone can protest if they want to, but for god sake don't act like football fans trashing their own favorite pub because their team has lost.
jes i have quite an understanding how live is in communism, and i know what drives demand for communism, its urban population that wants supply of consumption capacities from outside their urban environment, thats a reason among others.
"Quite" is an overstatement. Back to the drawing board
enough to predict communism/nationalsocialism in western europe. doesnt matter if a cryptoindexmafia, like coinmarketcap and bitcoiners will hover above them.
