A lot of this is being amplified by dishonest content creators to get reactions like we saw in OP, and the ignorant dullards fall for it (See the random other X posts trying to recover from the failure that was OP, in this thread)
Is the other “side” putting things into proper context in your opinion? Meaning our mainstream media as a whole. Are they downplaying it at any measurable scale?

France occupied a lot of areas in Africa Post-colonialism, they created the Françafrique policy, where they never really left those colonies. Some of the North African areas were always Muslim (Morocco, Algeria) and many in SSA have become Muslim over time. There's always been migration from Africa for this reason.


Please, tell us more. We are uneducated. We need you.

No idea. I haven't consumed any leftist or mainstream content about this.

Read up on France leading the attacks on Muammar Gaddafi in Lybia and how that destabilized the area and created chaos across Northern Africa through the ME, creating the Arab Spring. We're still dealing with displacement from that chain of events.

Like Slow said, I’ve got no idea.

I haven’t watched a second of it outside of some twitter shite posted here. I’ve seen enough chaos to guess that MSM is probably downplaying it. But I dont really know.

I don’t know what you consider “honest”. I haven’t looked at the NYT today (i will do so shortly), but the WSJ has an article today entitled “French Leaders Trade Blame After Rioting Sweeps the Nation” that doesn’t seem to be holding back too much (I’m sure it will be considered tame compared to many posters on this board).

Before 2016, the people participating in the thread would know all of this and wouldn't rely on random X accounts posting random silliness

So we should trust you instead, even after you’ve posted bullshite?

The parochial nature of so many posters on this board is so pathetic.

Sounds like a true man needs to step up and end this. Show us what you’re made of, Brigitte.
