Gotta point out that the french protests, while they are in general for everyone that doesn’t mean it’s not extremely partisan and divided. It’s just we all know Macron is absolute trash 🤷

    Hard to get along with white Christian nationalists that believe in fairy tales that they believe are a higher power than the government which exists in reality. There is no common ground when opposing side believes in space fairies and leprechauns.

      Long ago, I used to be one of those chuds. I agree with you that it’s hard to get along with them, but I also think a lot of them can be reached. Especially right now.

      The inherent contradictions on the Right have never been greater in the US (in my uneducated opinion). A lot of them are looking for answers, and, if done correctly, can be converted.
