  • To be fair we’re pretty tired and hopeless, most people are apathetic now because nothing seems to be working.

    Strikes and demonstrations are vilified by the media, the left is not united enough to hit as hard as they should, the president is a child throwing tantrums to have it the way he wants, the media is owned by very few people so they control the narrative, etc.

    It honestly feels hopeless, most people want change, but to a lot of people the demonising of the left has worked and the far right seems to be a reasonable option now.

    It’s gonna get a lot worse before it gets better unfortunately…









  • Well it’s a bit of both. Individual choices matter but not as much as corporate choices. It’s the corporations that manufacture clickbaity headlines and use psychological tricks to make us do things more easily.
    We can stop clicking all we want but if corpos are not forced to stop this kind of behaviour, nothing will change.

    It works for many things, individual choices are important but the orders of magnitude between them and corporate actions are vastly different.







  • Call me chauvinistic but France is absolutely special in many ways. The diversity of landscapes for a country this size is absolutely mad, not even considering the Outre Mer. The history is insanely rich, the culture is definitely worthwhile, and I’m not even talking about the food and its sheer diversity.

    The problem is us, Frenchies, we’ve definitely lost our spark and are getting propaganded to hell. It’s a very sad state of affairs.

    Less chauvinistically, I really like Norway and the Nordics in general.
