“evergreen” in this context just means it’s something that never goes bad or outdated. They meant “the police are going insane” is something that will always be relevant no matter when it’s posted because, well, the police are f***ing insane!

I think they're about that but also just people being tired with macron and his government they clearly aren't fit for the job anymore (if they ever were)

Ooh I didn't know that was what it meant

I don't know if y'all know but the retirement age in France is low af

France normalized their protests to the point where outsiders think it's just part of an yearly tradition

That makes no sense

good the less people think about france the happier they are

tiktok usage vs instagram usage

Yeah I'm aware, does that mean we have to be OK with them pushing it back lol? Especially when the working conditions aren't up to par, just because things are worse elsewhere doesn't mean we have to satisfy ourselves with a worse situation

Especially when the reasoning behind it makes no sense

Also I don't think retiring at 62 is that low, nobody in their right mind wants to work until that age

The pensions will also remain affordable if the retirement age remains 62 years, despite the aging population?

Ofc, but that's not really the problem here

I don’t think that’s why they are banning TikTok but it’s interesting that Zuckerberg chooses to sensor his app like that right?

Facebook and other Big Tech companies have faced a lot of political pressure over the years, been in Congress getting grilled like Tik Tok was, as recent as last year. If they were China owned they would have been out of here because everyone knows they got too much power as is.

In terms of that specific tweet I thought it was silly becauss IG isn't really built for trending s*** like that. Idk what the algorithm is for the hashtags but its always been useless to find news. I've always had to turn to Twitter even just for reactions to celebrity or sporting news because the hashtags just showed irrelevant out of date s***.

Also the notion US politicians would wanna censor news about protests in France made it make even less sense

Got ya

Nationwide protests are sweeping France today, October 17, 2026, as students, trade unions, and "Yellow Vest" activists clash with police over rising living costs, fuel prices, and poor school conditions. The demonstrations mark a significant escalation in a movement that began in mid-September with high school blockades.

Depends on where you live I think they getting a lot of attention in Europe

Just noticed this thread is six years old

Haven't seen the latest round of protests get any attention here, was watching live streams from Lyon this morning, the city is getting destroyed. I saw a clip of some guys chasing and tripping a police officer go viral last week, think Le Pen tweeted it.

Timing

with them D***S too!
