Gr@ntlɘr accused Emmanuel Macron of downplaying the escalation of violence in France. The town hall in Limoges burned down, which the author stated had even survived the Nazi era. Additionally, shops were looted, public buildings were attacked, hundreds of police officers were injured, and thousands of people were arrested. Meanwhile, Macron was in Qatar and explained the events mainly with "foreign manipulation," AI forgeries, and statements from foreign politicians, wrote Gr@ntlɘr. Macron described reports of significant involvement from migrants and Islamists as "completely false" and instead blamed ultra-left groups and numerous petty criminals from the suburbs. The author questioned whether this explanation did justice to the images of fires, looting, and chaos. #Frankreich #Macron #Gewalt (translated)

Jean-Jacques who is struggling described the path of Lola-Fleur's mother, who, according to him, met her future husband while studying literature and while he was working at an investment bank. The couple had four children and lived notably in Oman before divorcing in less than eight months, he wrote. The mother then returned to teach English and had, according to the author, developed a discourse hostile to the rich and to capitalism, which she passed on to her daughter. The author claimed that Lola-Fleur, aged 22, was echoing this discourse in front of the cameras while remaining silent about elements of her family history, such as stays in Oman, Sicily, and Malaysia, the expenses related to Manchester, and an internship at the Assembly. #divorce #capitalisme #injustice (translated)

Jean-Luc Mélenchon wrote that the student movement began in the Overseas Territories, first in Mayotte, then in Guyana and the Caribbean, before reaching the Paris suburbs.

The Baroness wrote that a woman who arrived in France at the age of 9, who had lived with her father in a 10 m² apartment in Sarcelles, had become a business leader and seemed "normal and balanced" to her. She argued that growing up in the suburbs did not condemn one to delinquency and that those who took a wrong path made choices. She believed that making excuses for delinquents devalued the work and efforts of this woman, and that not punishing troublemakers harshly undermined her journey. She finally expressed her confusion as to why, in her view, many people on the left did not understand that in the absence of consequences for offenses, respecting the rules could seem unnecessary. #Gauche #Société #Agir (translated)

a convergence between the rebellious far left and young people from the suburbs who behave like gangs coming to raid.

Press Briefs reported that Ségolène Royal referred to Raphaël Glucksmann as an intern after his victory in the social-democratic primary. The media recalled that she stated to L’Obs at the end of September that he had attended a meeting of Nicolas Sarkozy and did not come from the left. According to Press Briefs, Glucksmann was surrounded by several figures from the outgoing majority, including Aurélien Rousseau, Marguerite Cazeneuve, Simon Bernard, and Sacha Houlié, and was presented by some as a "new Macron." The media also mentioned a campaign note revealed by Mediapart in May, which allegedly recommended targeting wealthy, educated, and older voters as a priority, rather than the 18-25 age group, the working classes, and residents of the suburbs. Press Briefs added that an anonymous executive from Place Publique confided to Mediapart in August that Glucksmann had requested to set the voting fee at 15 euros to restrict the electorate, fearing that too many people participating might lead to a loss. The primary reportedly gathered about 121,000 participants, nearly 14 times less than in 2017 and 22 times less than in 2011, according to the media's comparisons with the first rounds of previous socialist primaries. The media contrasted these figures with the LR primary of 2021, won by Valérie Pécresse with 60.95% of the votes among nearly 115,000 participants. She then obtained 4.78% in the 2022 presidential election. Glucksmann, on the other hand, received 66.17% of the votes in a vote counting approximately 121,000 participants, noted Press Briefs, which questioned the significance of this victory in view of the presidential election. #politique #France #primaires (translated)
