Hey, non-French folks! A lil heads up about what’s not “amazing” about all that.
1) our bitch-ass president is showing a lot of love to this dude by saying he’s gonna grant him French nationality bc he was moved by his heroism, but that it’s gonna be exceptionnal.
At the same time, he’s pushing for one of the worst set backs in immigration reforms ever; he let white supremacists & nationalist organize militias to forcefully stop migrants at our borders (they even loaned a chopper); he joked about the number of Comorians who drown every year when crossing oceans; he is making it so that ppl who actually HELP migrants get prosecuted and/or forced to be on house arrest (and their names get permanently inked in the authorities’ registeries)
2) white nationalists in France are obviously yelling at how Fake this story is and ppl just let them do that
3) the “mainstream left” is applauding Mamoudou and using him to show that “migrants can be good”, as if there needed to be conditions such as “you need to be able to be Superman” to be accepted in another country when one flees one’s homeland.
Globally, many ppl agree about the fact that Macron is a typical right-wing president.
So please, remember this: yes, Mamoudou Gassama was heroic. But every action you see coming from Macron is pure bullshit, and it ain’t bc some feel like he cleans up nicer than Trump that he’s actually better.
(and I, for once, am tired of seeing his little gobelin teeth everywhere in France, so if I could catch a break on Tumblr, that’d be fantastic)
