If the French somehow did manage to rush the Parliament and start chopping people’s heads off (as they’ve been known to do), they’d just get bombed by NATO. But it’s still incredibly heartening to see how many people are not only willing to resist, but to get out in the streets and say enough is enough. It’s a kind of esoteric point, sort of (maybe), but the amount of resistance during this process of implementing the agenda is going to weaken the stability of the system once it is fully implemented. RT: More than 50,000 people protested against stricter Covid-19 measures in France on Saturday, as the upper house of parliament approved a bill introducing a vaccine pass. Around 54,000 people protested across the country, including 7,000 who marched in the capital, according to the Interior Ministry. Some held banners that read “Freedom” and “Democracy in danger.” “I’m against the vaccine pass. I’m against mass vaccination – everyone must be free to choose,” a protester in Paris told Ruptly video agency. Others showed support for unvaccinated Serbian tennis superstar Novak Djokovic, who was recently detained and slated for deportation in Australia for breaking health regulations. “Novak is kind of our standard-bearer at the moment,” a protester told AFP in Bordeaux. The French Senate, the upper house of parliament, adopted an amended version of the vaccine pass bill the same day. The lower house, the National Assembly, is due to vote on the hotly debated bill on Sunday afternoon. If adopted, the vaccine pass will replace the existing health pass required for entering establishments including cafes, restaurants, gyms and cinemas. The measure is aimed at incentivizing more people to get fully vaccinated. Macron said he wanted to “piss off” anti-vaxers – that appears to have worked. Although to be fair – we were all already pretty pissed off. As always, there’s a total blackout in the English media on these protests (which is I guess less outrageous than the total blackout of what is happening in Australia, an English-speaking country), and Twitter and YouTube are deleting videos of the protests.
