I don't know if the FDR community follows what all goes on in France, but yesterday there were extremely violent protests aimed at AirFrance, and it reminds me of the ones held against Uber this summer. Every time they act like this, I feel like I'm seeing into the truth of how violent socialism/communism really is. All of society's violence that goes hidden by the government's smokescreen is suddenly out in the open. When these protests happen, French society is not shocked. It often sympathizes with the people that openly attack and brutalize people trying to survive. AirFrance needs to make cuts or else the entire company will go bankrupt and they do this to someone bold enough to tell them the truth. In the Uber scenario, the cab driver's union attacked people that drive for Uber.

"Sainte-Mère-Eglise, the famous town where U.S. parachutists landed on D-Day, has already been blacked out during a so-called ‘trial run’ by the activists."

 

Boy, if that doesn't tell whose side they're on.  I forget where I read this, maybe Military History Quarterly, but prior to WW2's outbreak, the Germans menacing on the French border, French workers in a tank factory stopped work, striking for wages.  A little shy of clear vision....

 

And someone complains about Anglo-Saxon leaders mucking up France; sorry chaps, but those were Anglo-Saxon paratroopers liberating your country.
