So a non-violent political faction exists among the muslims in France according to your last video. How is that equivalent to the country being taken over by violent extremists?

Proof that YouTube (and now DikDok) are rotting young people’s brains. Critical thinking has been defeated by the algorithm.

Ok, I am french and let me just WT absolute F you right there like a Skyrim guard would, you criminal scum.
In France, a government is the group of ministers managed by the Prime Minister. A government can be overthrown by the parliament through votes in certain circumstances, such as “The Prime minister using the article 49.3 of the Constitution to force a law to pass without a parliament vote”, which is undemocratic AF. Doing so, the Prime Minister claiming article 49.3 actually engages the responsibility of his government (his group of appointed ministers) and exposes himself and his minister to a parliament censorship vote.
So, basically, a prime minister and his ministers can fuck around and find out.
The Prime Minister is chosen by the President. The President dictates the policies that his Prime Minister’s government should submit to the Parliament, so they would vote it as law, modify it or reject it. Then, this law is voted again in our Senate (a bunch of ancient, privileged pigs in silk), which can also block it.
So, the Senate mostly goes along with Macron. There is resistance at the Parliament. The Parliament can seize some opportunities to fire a government, but the next Prime Minister is appointed by the president anyway.
So, our President and his party are using Prime Ministers as expandable Kleenex for his little bourgeois-authoritarian tantrums. In order to cling to power, he’s put himself in cahoot with the right and the far-right, into making the people support him “or else the far-right would reign”. The public media, in which his party has put his pets -and other private parties- constantly broadcast some kind of bullshit Islamophobic propaganda to make the far-right rise. Such propaganda is only a pretense to maintain a climate of fear and division in the People. It is used to mask and distract from all the outrageous laws and measures the President wants to see applied… and also to slander and paint the French Left as unpatriotic, a public enemy (“islamo-leftism” in state propaganda is the new nazi “enemy from inside”/“judeo-bolsheviks”, like it was just before WWII), etc etc. Sound familiar? It is.
As in the US, the dominant classes want to restrict our freedoms, our social rights, our work rights, etc etc by allying with fascism if necessary when we start to wake up.
It’s all a very fucked-up strategy, because this little presidential cunt has been so in indirect support of the far-right’s obsessions that there is a risk France would elect our equivalent of Trump at the next presidential election.
As for the Prime Minister Bayrou in particular, this incompetent turd was thrown out mostly after having been exposed for covering a gigantic pedocriminal case (in a catholic school [faking_surprise.gif]) to advance his career.
France is in a dire State, it is true, but it has NOTHING to do with the Muslim community, it has to do with the moral bankruptcy of our upper classes, as it is all around the world.
Macron is a nuisance and is the most hated president of the 5th French Republic. Nothing that happens to him or to one of his governments should ever be considered as bad news (quite the contrary). The islamophobic atmosphere is fed by white supremacists who own the medias. All that to maintain the shitty capitalist system in crisis we currently live in and to maintain the parasitic privileges of the upper classes, even if the price is be the future of the younger generations, up to the fucking planet.
So, “for the ones who come after” as they say, please do decapitate your kings and do not listen to corporate media.
