Frenchie estimated that the 21st century could go down in history as one of great French humiliation, attributing part of this situation to the country's political choices. He contrasted the industrial ambition of fifty years ago, when, according to him, nuclear projects were being launched and scientists, engineers, and workers were building for future generations, with current proposals. He specifically mentioned the legacy of Pasteur, the Curies, and the Lumière brothers. He criticized the adoption in the Assembly the day before of an amendment aimed at taxing data circulating on the Internet, claiming that eleven votes were enough to pass it. According to him, such a measure risked hindering the opportunities that the Internet offers to young people, researchers, and those without fortune or networks. He also contested the idea that the tax would be borne solely by content providers, estimating that the cost could be passed on to their services. Addressing the deputies who voted for the amendment, Frenchie reproached them for seeking new tax revenues rather than questioning public spending that he deemed misused. He believed they were betraying their responsibility to past and future generations and warned against the risk of one generation squandering what ten others had built. He concluded that he did not want children to leave France to build their future and then return as tourists. #France #Souveraineté #Innovation (translated)

Emanuel Boeminghaus wrote that business journalist Philipp Mattheis was in China for the first time last week in nearly exactly six years. According to Mattheis, around 500,000 industrial jobs have been lost in Germany between 2019 and 2025; for 2026, he cites another 15,000 positions per month. The automotive industry, mechanical engineering, and suppliers are particularly affected. According to Boeminghaus, Mattheis contrasted China's investments in cities, power plants, factories, and infrastructure with the condition of German bridges and railways, as well as high energy costs. At the same time, Mattheis criticizes the increasing state regulation in Europe: the continent is adopting control mechanisms commonly seen in China without advancing its economic modernization. Boeminghaus warned, referencing Mattheis, that Germany risks becoming an economic ruin due to its own political decisions. https://t.co/CRj4CtYeKn #China #Deutschland #Wirtschaftskrise (translated)

Eric Zemmour presented robotics as a future for the French industry. He recalled that Archimedes, Copernicus, Pascal, and the Lumière brothers illustrated, in his opinion, the importance of innovation and techniques in the greatness of civilization, to which France had always contributed.
