To be honest, it is the same here. The old scholars are mostly for show (and weird ass polemics).

We should have elected this guy.

Exactement. With the clavier.

Fuck l’Académie Française as well.

Missed that one, good catch!

With even more Scientology I’m sure, somehow.

Weapons grade.

We’re trying real hard not to let them do this shit again. But god is it tiring…

That would indeed be incredible.

Pretty sure the OP was a troll, actually.

Anyhow, if you want specifics, we currently have 90 far right MPs in Congress and even our “centrist” government and the “classic right” seem to have decided muslims are to blame for everything. This includes and is not limited to :

• banning “muslim adjacent” wear like abbayas from schools ;
• a broad offensive to remove pork free meals from school lunches in some cities ;
• à brutal crackdown on any pro Palestinian action, including summons from anti terrorism units that have targeted union leaders, students and leftwing MPs ;
• targeting of muslim private schools for closure whereas radical catholic schools are absolutely fine even when they teach gay people are all rapists (see Lycée Stanislas for a very striking example) ;
• repeated incidents of police disproportionately targeting muslims ;
• a general attitude of paranoia regarding anything muslim : last year our Home Office equivalent actually asked primary schools to provide a list of pupils that missed class because of specifically muslim religious holidays.

I’m sure I’m forgetting a lot of things. But also, I can see everyday around me how hard muslim people, but also any arab looking person, have it in the public eye. The far right is on the rise politically but also socially. Anything that “does not belong”, be it LGBTQ, non white people, etc is increasingly targeted by pressure groups of "concerned citizens ", “protector of the peace,”, “defender of children” and so on. It worries me. A lot.

Because Muslims are increasingly marginalised, disenfranchised and used as a scapegoat for everything that goes bad?

So much this. Our rightwing is hellbent on importing every single moral panic from the US to detract from their blunders and authoritarianism.

Yeah you’re right, as long as they only victimise and kill their own people it’s JUST FINE.

God, the shit people write sometimes…

Same thing here. What the fuck is this?

Since all instances mirror comments on subscribed communities you could simply create your own instance, leech it all and sell to LLMs. No need to go to the trouble of hosting a large instance.

Nah, that is actually a slang for sex workers, who do not deserve to be associated with Putin.

Yep, especially when they come from different alphabets. But we used to do it for English names too (mostly medieval ones though).

Side note, this is also the French spelling of Putin. So you can eat Poutine while being mad at Poutine (I’ll let you guess which is which, unless you’re a cannibal then everything goes TBF).

Don’t give him ideas. He’ll go there and do a BHL.

We have very little discussion about German politics here. A little bit about afd lately and whenever the EU comes up but not as much as US or UK politics. The cultural hegemony is no joke…
