i'm just intrigued by the reality that the bourgeois press is largely in support of the rioting in france, while characterizing it as radically left-wing, while the socialist press is overwhelmingly critical of it. it's like the mainstream press has been given orders to create a strawman for the far-right press to tear down. they are working together to create a fantasy reality of the protests as left-wing, while the actual left is saying "we don't support this. this is not socialism. this is a developing fascist movement that has no revolutionary potential and no resemblance to socialism and that threatens the freedom of many vulnerable groups and threatens the revolutionary left.".
