With its escorts ...

Rin, I have a stupid question. Does hiring escorts include sex as a given?

In Quebec, yes. In the United States of America, I don't know.

How much for the one above?

Looks like they pulled back the carbon tax.

It's never too late too late to stop wasting money.

Hey Zzyzzx, want to go 50/50?

I was just talking to a French guy who told me that the whole yellow vest protest thing in Paris is really about Macron's lying to get elected. He apparently promised to both reduce their "social security" taxes (the French version) and to maintain retirement benefits, but after getting elected, he reversed course on both of those promises.

So people are pretty pissed at him.

And here's your news about the Yellow Vest Movement in the Legacy Press:



Now, back to Trump and the Russian thing.

Gosh, more than two years of probably the most intense investigation of any president in history, and still zippo, nada, bupkis.

BayArea says

Are you guys suggesting that if France had a zero tolerance immigration policy against Muslims, the riots against fuel costs and taxation would not be taking place?

If they had zero rapefugee immigration they would not need to raise taxes in the first place.

Looks like a bit of a mess right now.

Also looks like the Diverse "New French" Inhabitants of Paris are having a "Blast.

I hear Macron is envious of Trump, with just a 25% approval rating

California, Washington State, Oregon.... just a few years from now.

Wow, thank you Patrick.

The Great Intersectionality cannot handle "Class". Aren't all Whites Rich, except for a handful of racist methheads?

Thing is, when they realize it's actually all about class, that points the arrow at themselves.

They would much rather imagine racism where very little exists. That lets them point the arrow at the stupid workers who they impoverished by forcing them to compete with impoverished people in other countries. And that get funding and enthusiastic cooperation from NPR and other mouthpieces for global capital. Just listen to who is funding NPR.

Nothing scares the Identity Politics Left quite like an actual working class uprising. Witnessing the furious unwashed masses operating out there on their own, with no decent human restraint whatsoever, Identity Politics Leftists feel a sudden overwhelming urge to analyze, categorize, organize, sanitize, and otherwise correct and control them. They can’t accept the fact that the actual, living, breathing working classes are messy, multiplicitous, inconsistent, and irreducible to any one ideology. Some of them are racists. Some are fascists. Others are communists, socialists, and anarchists. Many have no idea what they are, and don’t particularly care for any of these labels. This is what the actual working classes are … a big, contradictory collection of people who, in spite of all their differences, share one thing in common, that they are being screwed over by the ruling classes.

Spot. Fucking. On.

Paris is a shithole:

Dumbfucks should have elected LePen.

And to be honest - they probably did. They had a massive amount of "spoiled ballots"

This is bullshit.

The working class has one thing in common and that is "leave us the fuck alone". They aren't a disparate group, they are a group of people trying to live their lives, most often trying to raise a family and fucking sick and tired of a bunch of outsider assholes trying to tell them how to live their lives and taxing the fuck out of them.

They are, by far, the most united group there is.

I'm an engineer now but I grew up among blue collar workers and I purposely live among the working class because I have more affection and commonality with them then some asshole "intellectual". If you want to hear truth, true thinking, and CLEAR thinking, talk to a truck driver, to a guy bagging groceries, an auto-mechanic, a plumber, a farmer (man they are goddamned workers!) and they will give you a clear idea of what they think of the fucking government.

If you listen, and ask only questions, and don't disagree and offer input and accept rebuttal and be polite - you'll walk away from that in total agreement after they have aired their grievances. It's people like this that really understand the situation. I get paid big bucks to make toys for assholes. They instead make my life possible. I have great respect for the blue collar workers of this world. Without them, I'm dead.

When I do this, I offer insights, I disagree - but I explain my reasoning. It's never an argument but I've learned more from blue collar workers about life than I ever did from a professor. One thing I know I must do is accept I'm wrong, that I have my head in the clouds, and I simply don't understand the reality of the viciousness of the world.

German cartoon from the 1930's depicting France in 100 years (2030):

The top title reads: "The negroization of France in 100 years".

The bottom reads: "The last un-colored French are the big attraction of the Paris zoo."

Finally got to use that German degree for something!

Oh and the sign in French reads "Prohibited to give food"

France at least has a clue about the fatal nature of wokeness for every culture:

The French government recently banned schools from using certain “gender-neutral” or “inclusive” language in schools, saying it would be destructive to the French language and would prevent people from learning it.

Some leftist groups, politicians, and teacher’s unions have attempted to change certain words, adding the midpoints in nouns and adjectives, and sometimes in verbs, in an attempt to make the language more feminine. By doing so, they claim that some traditional French words are too masculine and need feminization.

But a deputy education minister, Nathalie Elimas, on Thursday said that “gender-neutral” and “inclusive” writing in French is “a danger to our country” and will “sound the death knell for the use of French in the world,” reported The Associated Press. ...

The Epoch Times has contacted the French Ministry of Education for comment.

Earlier this year, French President Emanuel Macron warned that left-wing “social science theories entirely imported from the United States,” referring to “cancel culture” and leftist ideas about race and gender, is a threat to French society.

Maybe there is a little hope for France.

A little more hope for France:

https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/60-french-police-military-say-they-will-support-le-pen-presidential-election

60 per cent of police and military say they will support populist Marine Le Pen in next year’s French presidential election, with the number even higher among active duty police.

Huh, this is a pretty good quote by myself if I may say so.

So it makes a lot of sense to stress "racism" when the alternative is blaming yourself.

Yes,
"I am for open borders because I am not racist against "Hispanics."
"I am for open trade with China because I am not racist against Chinese."

Sounds better than "I like adding to my bottom line by undercutting American workers through exploiting illegals and foreign slave labor."
