For those who don’t know, french gendarmes are part of the military. Those Israeli policemen just assaulted a French soldier on French soil which, you know, is usually a pretty big diplomatic no-no

Please don’t do anything rash. The fight still goes on, the not-fascist part of America needs you! Love and support from France

Same here

If that is supposed to be your ultimate proof that horseshoe theory is real, you might have some more convincing to do

No, RN is third by number of seats, with NFP (united left) being first and Ensemble (center-right) being second

I might be stereotypical but I, for one, sure hope the left sticks to its program and doesn’t compromise itself by allying with the so-called centrists. They’ve been calling us antisemites, chaos agents and extremists for the whole campaign, and the last 7 years of Macron speak for themselves regarding the centrists inability to support left-wing policies.

The best thing that could happen for the fascists is facing a coalition too mild to do anything meaningful for the people, and being able to say “See? The Left has betrayed you!” next elections

Just out of curiosity, is it commonly thought outside of France that Macron is anywhere close to left-wing ?

He’s been campaigning for a week on a plateforme that’s basically just “The left is just as bad as the far right”, several of his ministers have clearly stated that they would vote blank in case of a duel between the left and the far-right in the runoffs, and he’s repeatedly called the left a “danger for democracy”

You seem to be under the impression that Macron is fine with the left winning.

He’s definitely not: he’s been viciously attacking the left for years now, and has just last Sunday accused them of being antisemitic, antirepublican and antiparlentarist.

His Minister of Justice said in an interview that, in case of a duel between the left and the far-right during the election runoffs, he would vote for neither.

His prime minister keeps saying in Interviews that the left represents chaos for the country.

What Mélenchon thinks is of little consequence. All the left parties have put together the baselines of a common program, and supporting Ukraine is a big part of it.

Mélenchon is too disliked by the rest of the left to be considered for PM if it comes to that anyway, and all other potentiel candidates are strongly in favour of helping Ukraine.

Ah. No, what he basically did is gamble on the fact that the left couldn’t unite and that his candidates would face against the far-right, so he could once again campaign on the platform of “The only two options are me or the fascists”.

The fact that the left managed to put aside their differences and unite completely took him by surprise and he now has to actually campaign. His main argument now is that the left is just as bad as the far-right and that he’s the only reasonable person in the room.

You were right to think he didn’t have it in him, because he definitely doesn’t.

Selling only DRM-free games has always be GOG’s whole thing (well, that and selling oldies compatible with modern OS), it’s weird that this meme specifically would be considered “aknowledging piracy”

Too late, I’ve now gotten 20% more obnoxiously french

FYI, tracking based on legitimate interest can be rejected, it just isn’t by default. If you click on “reject all” both tracking based on consent and tracking based on legitimate interests are rejected (at least if Microsoft wants to be in compliance with EU rules on tracking).

The only trackers that can be used even if you click on “reject all” are those that are used exclusively for technical purposes and some very light analytics

Also, how does a stick break scissors?

I hate this so much

I think you’re spot on for Vision. If the last Phoenix Force buff taught me one thing, it’s that the difference between a 4-cost card that can move and a 5-cost card that can move is truly massive. I guess Vision got a bit more appealing for a Shuri combo and a last turn move to bait Shang Chi though, that’s probably something I’ll want to try out.

This game is fascinating to me because of the range of reactions I’ve seen from players. Those who like it love it so much they call it a masterpiece, while those who don’t like it really hate it.

It’s also one of the only games I can think of which message (or at least what I personally interpret its message to be) gets less and less impactful the more people praise it. I feel like it only works if you go in blind and only expect a standard shooter, and really suffers from its reputation as a consequence. Expecting a fun shooter and getting this whole thing was a unique experience to me, while a friend of mine that played it expecting to find the experience he read about was super disappointed and hated it.

A weird game indeed, but I’m so glad it exists
