  If by “suspended” you mean pushed back until next elections, then yes, it has been “suspended”

  Rebuilding the country after what exactly? Lmfao

  Lmfao. Macron literally used constitutional powers to skip the congress and raise retirement age like two years ago, and protests achieved nothing. French people also elected a center-left government opposed to neoliberal austerity and the president is not allowing for a prime minister of LFI to be chosen, literally blocking the left while the far right threatens to take rule.

  Historically, almost all social progress has come from stopping before you kill your oppressor

  The Soviets murdered the Romanov family, and afterwards rose life expectancy from 28 to 65, had the fastest industrialization in human history, defeated Nazism, gained universal healthcare and free education to the highest level, eliminated homelessness and abolished unemployment. Europe mostly half-ass copied some of those policies because the capitalists were afraid of a revolution and have to give many concessions to the organized workers of Europe, hence why this progress did not happen simultaneously in the USA, far from Soviet influence.

  If we’re fine with resorting to violence to get what we want, we’re no better than them

  This person doesn’t know how Nazism was defeated.

  This is how some of the worst atrocities start

  Start? Really? People are being murdered in plain sight without consequences. The governments of the west are collaborating In genocide against Gaza. One in four black men go through jail in the US over their lifetimes. Homelessness is rampant, people are left to die without healthcare, drug abuse skyrockets, people are left unemployed and depressed.

  You don’t care about “the worst atrocities”, the worst atrocities are happening TODAY and you simply don’t care because YOU have not been affected so far.

  So who is the one deciding who gets taged as oppressor?

  The people, democratically, organized in worker councils. Nowadays it’s usually old men with wigs deciding who’s a criminal, and that’s clearly working like shit, we can do better easily.

  Do you murder the oppressor’s children as well because they benifited from their perents behavior?

  No, literally no revolution ever has done this except in politically dangerous situations where keeping royal family members alive means danger of reestablishment of monarchy (e.g. Romanov). You’re just doing fake atrocity propaganda for something that literally doesn’t happen, and ignoring the millions murdered every single year.

  How many times exactly has that happened in history? Revolutions are famously not peaceful. Not that they shouldn’t happen, they absolutely should, but the people in power don’t just go “oh shucks, guess I’ll give it all up!”
