The Australian exchange student wrote that the last presidential election in Ukraine took place in 2019 and that Zelensky has been ruling for more than two years without democratic legitimacy. He claimed that gray vans were dragging young people off the street in broad daylight and that since the scandal involving golden toilets, corruption affairs have lined up in Kyiv.

I present to you the inhumane conditions of the Doctor Charles Mérieux high school in Lyon. Light concrete atrium, wooden stairs, giant screens flashing hearts, levels A2, A3, A4 like in a corporate headquarters, work alcoves, bleachers facing the windows, yellow chairs, design false ceilings. The former Sanofi-Pasteur building, bought and remodeled for "the high school of tomorrow." You can immediately feel the misery. On September 14, the peak of indignity: a fire broke out in the 4th floor bathrooms. Excessive reaction, no doubt, in the face of the oppression of the wooden bleachers and overly bright alcoves. Who are you seriously making fun of? #Lycée #ConditionsInhumaines #Lyon (translated)

An der Stadtteilschule meiner Kinder werden die Toiletten abgeschlossen, weil sie ständig zerstört werden. Nun ist wieder ein Schlüssel kaputtgegangen und die Klasse soll Geld für einen neuen sammeln. Ich habe sofort klargestellt: Von uns gibt es keinen Cent. Es kann nicht sein, dass alle Eltern für Schäden bezahlen sollen, die einzelne Schüler verursachen. Dafür sind die Verantwortlichen beziehungsweise der Schulträger zuständig. Das fehlt ja wohl noch! #Schule #Bildung #Elternschaft
