Protests Against Police Violence in France
French police have all eyes on them right now.
If they think that they can get away with this, they are wrong.
So we're also here to say
fuck the police.
What do you think about police repression against student in France?
Well, it says everything we already knew
and that you need to know about the
police. That when young people are taking to the streets protesting
for the bare minimum, what should be common sense, to have
investments in their schools, um, and then the police
meet them with such violence, such brutality, shows who they
are really protecting.
That they are
willing to hurt young people immensely
just for standing up for their rights to protect an extremely
violent system. It is absolutely abhorrent and we
are following these
developments all over the world. French police have all eyes on them right
now.
If they think that they can get away with this, they are wrong.
So we're also here to say
fuck the police
and, uh, we are standing united in solidarity for
the French
students. They are sacrificing our future just for
them to
live a little more comfortable. And just as we are seeing here how
students are
being neglected, not even receiving the basic funds
and investments
and still being told, "Oh, look for the future and you should work,
uh, to become successful and work for your future." What
signal does that send? Um, it is a huge betrayal.
And then when we take it to the streets to, to reclaim that future
that we were promised and that is ours, that is rightfully ours,
um, then we are met with huge violence as we
have seen that the French students
have been met with. It is like our generation is one
that has grown up with a
sense of we already lost hope. We are mourning what we already know
that we will
lose in the future that, that we won't have and that we
are seeing here,
especially in the,
in the, in the suburbs in, in Paris, for example, where,
where the social injustice is defining everything for these young
people. Just since young people are the future and that
is what we are being told as well, what si- what signal does that send
when we are not even investing in young people that we're at the same time telling
that they are the future? That is one of the clearest examples I can
think about of
a society that has given up.
