He described the blockades as an extracurricular activity for young people who, in his view, could rely on their parents' support: private tutoring at 80 euros an hour if their school closed for three weeks, private prep if the baccalaureate didn’t open doors for them, or an internship with a family friend if the job market closed off. He estimated that the bourgeoisie lent their radicalism to less privileged youth while leaving them to bear the consequences, and he said that this appropriation particularly disgusted him. #Éducation #Révolution #Bourgeoisie (translated)

David Lisnard reminded that, on October 7, 2023, 1,163 innocents had been murdered by Hamas terrorists and that many other lives had been destroyed.

He called for not to forget the victims or to forgive their executioners and those who, according to him, armed and incited anti-Semites in France.
