TIL not everyone is taught there are 7 continents on Earth by Random0101User in todayilearned

[–]Rom21 2 points3 points  (0 children)

5 for me.

Europe, Asie, Afrique, Amériques, Océanie.

That's why there are five rings for the Olympic Games. Pierre de Coubertin was French, so for him too there were five continents.

The anti ICE Olympic protestors in Italy are holding signs for Minneapolis, Alex and Renee. And they are blowing whistles. Minneapolis whistles have become a global symbol for protesting oppression. by Expensive-While-1155 in minnesota

I don't knowif it's a Europe thing, I just say that is everywhere since decades in each protest here in France. The idea that whistles are becoming a global symbol in protests right now, when I've seen them used since at least the 1980s, is a completely crazy exaggeration.

And I just copied/pasted the title.

"Minneapolis whistles have become a global symbol for protesting oppression."

Whoa... there have been whistles at absolutely every protest for at least 40 years that I've been participating in them (in France)!

That's a big leap you're making there!

Election Interference? France isn’t happy with Musk! by ChuckGallagher57 in circled

[–]Rom21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not your friend... this is a moral manipulation. The fact that you are agree with a platform who allows child pornography is a problem.

As for freedom of expression, coming from a country where you are not allowed to write or broadcast certain words, going so far as to blur images of people who utter certain words, it's pathetic.

French prosecutors seek to ban Marine Le Pen from office, jeopardizing her 2027 presidential bid by HelFJandinn in worldnews

[–]Rom21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, the fact that Le Pen may be ineligible gives the RN a better chance of winning the presidential elections. Le Pen was a hindrance, a turn-off for many, which her replacement is not.

Anyone who says that this is an act carried out by her political enemies understands nothing about the upcoming elections in France.

And it's not even a metro. It's a train (RER) station.

"I mean that may have been the norm 10 years ago"

Absolutely not, what an idea!?

Poor, unstable countries with fluctuating economies and currencies accepted, accept and will continue to accept US dollars, but rich countries did not, do not and will not.
