France has desended into kaos, 80000 troops trying to gain rule of law again.

It's Antifa, free palestine pro hamas, trans activists and other far left groups that are trashing the country so that they can destroy it and rebuild a better more inclusive fairer society or so they think.

Yeah right, most of them probably can't make their bed. I don't know how progressives can look at this kaos and think the radical left is benign.

We are 10 years behind France but many of the policies leftys in Australia support lead to the same place. Destruction and kaos.

Can't blame Trump or Israel for whats going on in France..... or can you?

Police have fired teargas at ⁠protesters as more than 250,000 pupils, teachers and parents demonstrated across France on the biggest day yet of a campaign for better high school conditions that has been marred by often violent clashes with police.

My algo reckons it's teachers, parents and pupils protesting about better high school conditions.

"Intelligence is correlated with a range of left-wing and liberal political beliefs. This may suggest intelligence directly alters our political views. Alternatively, the association may be confounded or mediated by socioeconomic and environmental factors. We studied the effect of intelligence within a sample of over 300 biological and adoptive families, using both measured IQ and polygenic scores for cognitive performance and educational attainment. We found both IQ and polygenic scores significantly predicted all six of our political scales. Polygenic scores predicted social liberalism and lower authoritarianism, within-families. Intelligence was able to significantly predict social liberalism and lower authoritarianism, within families, even after controlling for socioeconomic variables. Our findings may provide the strongest causal inference to date of intelligence directly affecting political beliefs."

Gee, thanks bono. That explains why I don't understand how men can get pregnant. I'm just not intelligent enough.

After the weekend you might wanna hit F9 and get your algo to update, MSN.

Although, if I am understanding what Omar is trying to say, then apparently superior intelligence makes people burn down town halls and loot high-end French fashion boutiques. In which case I'se is thinking I might like being dumb.

Why are the citizens in a very progressive left leaning country like France so unhappy that they want to burn the place down.

Seems to me its a clear failure of left wing ideology in practise, no one is happy.
The more radically left a place becomes the greater the crime, poverty, division etc followed by chaos and violence. The only means to stop that is by force of an authoritarian govetnment

I dont think radical left wing thinking is compatible with democracy and freedom.

@IanR have you spotted any maga hats at the french riots.

You could call it an insurrection if you do.

So far all I have seen is keffyiers and palestianian flags so its just a peaceful protest for now.

They reported that the French government of President Macron said the kerfuffle was ultra-left groups and criminals. They also reported that the left wing candidate in the next election said it was the government's fault the riots happened and the rioters should be listened to, whilst the right-wing candidate said 'violence is not an opinion, destruction is not a form of expression'.

But yep, you might be right. No reason why teachers, parents and pupils couldn't also be ultra-left and criminals and the BBC, al-Jazeera and Reuters reporting might be controlled by zionists.

Apparently there's lots of kerfuffle in other parts of Europe also. Which I'm hearing is a result of cost of living crisis. IDK, you guys are the anger experts.

Hopefully it doesn't spread to Australia - although there is lots of disatifaction brewing here.

I'm looking forward to going to Shanghai again in a few months for a holiday. People seem genuinely happy in China - all 1.4 billion of them.

When you chat to them about the Tiananmen Square protests and subsequent military massacre what do they all say ?

Are they like cammd and say it is all the fault of the rabid-lefties or like IanR and blame it on a young Donald Trump and the Make China Mao Again movement or do they all say it didn't happen and was just pro-zionist western fake-news ?

Oh of course Tiananmen Square protests that happened 37 years ago. The same year the Hawke Labor government introduced HECS, officially ending free university education in Australia.

Hahahahaha.

I knew you were the anger expert.
