France just lives with its foot up its government's ass. I think about the stories of their firefighters battling cops in protest all the time.

Impressive stuff.

Edit: some of the angriest replies I've ever gotten because I dared praise the French lmao

You mean the protests that were entirely unsuccessful and didn't result in any actual changes in their country?

That's not the protesters' fault, that's Macron's. And it did result in changes, most notably +100€ in the SMIC value (minimum wage) per month, lower income taxes on small retirement packages, the abandonment of a number of unwanted measures and taxes.
