    France has been led by liberals for years now, enshittified without mercy by these rich fucks, these EU sellouts. Our education is fucked, out healthcare is fucked, our lifestyle is fucked, all to please these rich cunts. it’s time we bring out the guillotine again.

    Fuck the EU, fuck macron, fuck these pretend left wing cucks from LFI and PS, fuck the nazi cunts.

    Only one solution, revolution. Heads need to roll again to remind them who’s in charge.

      I agree with you this is the result of decades of liberal policies and the left was never been able to stand against it in any capacity. It’s a really shame, but we had it coming for a long long time.

      Although the EU is far from perfect, I still think it brings more good than evil. We should try to salvage what is good.

      I am not so much on board for cutting heads, but think these corrupt motherfuckers should rot in prison for life.

        The EU can get fucked too. They forced the fishermen who received subsidies because of the crazy oil prices that forced them to stay in port to return the money. They forced the nationalisation privatization of our energy production, of our railways, etc. Things that shouldn’t be operated around profit margins are now forced to pay dividends to greedy cunts wo provide nothing of value to our society.

        A significant portion of our problems today is due to the loss of economic freedom and the forced capitalist march led by the eurocrats.

        Burn everything down, make heads roll.

          I think you mean privatized energy and railways.

          I agree, this was a complete shit show, especially in France.

          Although, it’s not the EU constitution and political systems that is fully at fault, but the people we elected to take the seats in the parliament. This time around we get fucked even harder, with a huge set back for Greens and Left in general, and big rise of hard-right and liberals.

          Without the EU, how can our small individual European countries hold against massive Americans corporations and other giants like China or Russia? Neo-liberal policies would still dominate in our countries but all of or industry and agriculture and media would be enslaved to bigger entities of the “free market”.

          Today, the EU still helps us to stand against erosion of our privacy and mass surveillance (although there are big red flags on this point at the moment), push for better standards on technologies (universal charging, GDPR). Also, freedom of movement, unified currency. You know you can move to another EU country, find a job there, no need for any special work permit or visa, and then you can also vote for municipal elections there too ?

          We have a lot to loose along side the EU. I guess that makes me a reformist more than a revolutionary.

            Yes sorry, I meant privatization, brain fart moment.

            I don’t think universal charging or gdpr are meaningful in my everyday life. Do you want to know how I dealt with Apple’s bullshit premium prices on their slightly different shaped plug?

            I didn’t buy Apple products. And even with universal charging, I still won’t. I literally do not care about this universal charging thing. USB has been a de facto standard in my life long before the EU decided to randomly care about it.

            The only effect of gdpr is having to click on a trillion check marks every time you visit a website if you care about your privacy, or just give up and click the ‘accept all’ button, and even if you turn them all off, there’s still a trillion trackers because of ‘necessary’ ones.

            These two ‘achievements’ are the most meaningless things ever.

            The thing that actually impacts my life, for example, is the EU’s constant fight against biodiversity, by preventing the sales of any seed that isn’t pre-approved in a list designed by some corrupt official paid by Monsanto and friends.

            The EU can get fucked.

              This is only the visible part of the iceberg for regular users and I agree it sucks. But most importantly GDPR take companies accountable for personal data management and data-breaches. They are mandated by law to disclose publicly when they have suffered a data-breach, which was not the case anywhere before, and still isn’t the case in the US. It also mandates the data of EU-citizens must be managed and stored in the EU, and cannot be saved more than 1 year without renewed consent. GDPR is a very meaningful progress.

              For all the agriculture and environment topics, I agree with you that it is a debacle.

      How did they enshittify your country specifically? I want to compare it with how neoliberalism enshittified the UK.

        Budget cuts left, right and center mostly.

        Education, healthcare, transportation, everything goes down the shitter in the name of tax cuts and profits for the mega rich.

        Medicine is more expensive than ever and many drugs get removed from the reimbursement list every year.

        Increased retirement age even though numbers and stats show there is no need to.

        Just the average liberalism bullshit similar to every other country.
