Je sais pas vraiment si c’est de l’argot, mais moi c’est gloubiboulga. Quand j’étais gamin ça me faisait beaucoup rire d’entendre mes parents dire ça, et ça m’amuse toujours un peu aujourd’hui
I get that people may be bored of politics, this is legitimate. I disagree that it is a Lemmy’s problem though. Imho, decentralization and leaving Reddit are political decisions, opposing the up hand of big companies on social medias. So it seems to me that it is in the nature of Lemmy and Fediverse to be politically oriented. And even if you disagree that it is in their nature, maybe we can agree that it is logical that they tend to gather politically motivated peoples, as apolitical folks will probably stay on mainstream medias.
Je suis d’accord, notre système “semi” présidentiel me paraît un défaut Une des difficultés que j’ai rencontrées en en parlant autour de moi, c’est que ça facilite la lecture politique pour pas mal de gens, en polarisant autour des personnalités plutôt que des partis : à mon sens, c’est en bonne partie pour ça que des partis peuvent pâtir de l’image de leur leader (coucou Melenchon) et qu’on peut construire des partis autour d’une personne plutôt que d’idées (coucou Macron) On me dira que c’est aussi le cas dans les régimes parlementaires, avec lea premier.e ministres ou les leader de partis, mais je pense que le côté suffrage universel pour élire le président n’y est pas pour rien. Genre sur le papier c’est simple et efficace : on a tous et toutes voté pour, donc la personne est forcément légitime à tout diriger. Et derrière ça engendre des tensions au sein des partis, autour de qui est censé diriger, qui est légitime, etc.
Upvote for the trump point, im with you on this one Other questions are meaningless here imo, just because X did not commit the crimes Y did, does not mean they should be treated differently if they did crimes of their own
(Still better voting blue than voting red though, fuck trump)
Hello, did not understand everything so sorry in advance if i say anything dumb In France, we have a President, elected by every adult citizen. In theory, he does not lead the country, and chooses a Prime Minister for this task, who then comes up with a government. In practice though, the President (Macron for now) has a lot more power over the PM because he can revoke and name another Prime Minister. And as the Assembly also have the power to revoke PM, President generally chooses someone that the majority in the Assembly will accept, to avoid instability. So currently, Macron is the President and holds practical power over politics, Prime Minister is currently Attal, and is kinda the second in hand of Macron, and as the Assembly seems to change right now, Macron will probably choose someone else as PM, probably someone from the left.
Hi ! I have no definitive answer but i can give you some infos there
In french, the word “tendre” translates well to “to tend”, as both describe something that is preferred but not mandatory or necessary.
In this context, it seems indeed a bit strange. But, from the basic and general knowledge I have of french laws, “tendre” is not a specific word of the legal jargon, so I think the meaning implied here is the common meaning, which is quite the same as “to tend”. Someone with better knowledge of the french legal jargon could rectify me though.
From what i studied of french laws, public service is considered very important, and can lead to arbitrary infringements of private and personal property (like building roads or railways, it is mandatory to compensate owners of properties affected, but not really to have their consent). So “tends” could be the real meaning here, like “it’s better if you can get owner’s consent, but as you are building a service for everyone to use, you can do it without owner’s consent”.
It’s been some years since I learned all of this, so I might be wrong or it might be outdated.
Most of the ones I used are in french, either puns on celebrities’ names or cultural references My favourite one is Captain Haddock saying “I do find that funny” with a very serious face
That lies on the the other side of the libertarian spectrum, the anti-capitalist one, which you can call anarchy to avoid confusion. Does not really match your meme that keeps the capitalist aspect of income as a key concept. Anarchy and (capitalist) libertarianism are really incompatible, since one fights against capital and the other fights for it. In french we distinguish those two philosophies with two words, libertaire (anarchist) and libertarien (libertarian). Since it does not exist in English, i strongly recommend you use Anarchism or social Libertarianism when you want to mean anti-capitalist Libertarianism, it helps avoid the confusion.
