Why so mad against french?
They seem to dislike france's freedom of speech and their anti-islam stance.
... No, it does not make sense. I don't have a clue.
I think it has more to do with Macron and his bedding of right-wing fascists to avoid a left-wing government coalition
That, and their funding of religious ethnostate terrorists...
Edit: i don't get it, is it something I said?
Edit 2: OK, I was wrong about the specific context of the comment, but I'll take partial credit for guessing it had to do with the war in Gaza
"Critical support" is a fundamentally reactionary concept so the tankies newest thing is that they love Islamic fundamentalists simply because they are in conflict with the West.
true chickens
Degenerates.
What does that mean? Do they actually want Charlie Hebdos, as in people that aren't scared to make irreverent cartoons of Mohammed? Or they want people like Charlie Hebdo to get the same response from the Muslim community? There's a difference.
I too am intrigued why tankies would support islamic fundamentalists murdering leftist french journalists... Doesn't add up... My only guess (beyond the general mental illness tankies display) is that French colonialism fucked up cultures around the world for centuries — across south America, Africa, and Asia — and they still hold political and military control over a few of them... But why cheer islamic terrorism? Why cheer the murder of leftist journos?

Tankies are very simple things. They operate by US bad
If something, like jihadists, says the US is bad, then the Tankies will support them.
until....
BWARK 🔪🐔

They're leftists but not the right kind of leftists. That makes them deserving of being murdered in the tankies' eyes.
They want to kill -- Or rather, like classic rich college kids, they want others to kill for them. They will thankfully never do anything violent, all bark.
(Well, actually, watch out for them IRL on a smaller level. They very well may be violent, abusive people that will hurt you, or participate in SLA style politicial violence, it's just that no "revolution" is ever going to happen.
And before someone says it, no I didn't say they all are, just that they can be.)
My favorite is when I'm operating off the assumption that a specific tankie user is just a disillusioned member of the working poor, and then they make some casual comment outside of a political thread and reveal that they're an able-bodied white cishet married homeowner with two incomes, both six-digits, and they're lecturing others on privilege. Like, fucking what? I'm fucking sitting here counting my calories when I buy groceries so I don't lose weight, I'm quite literally sitting under a leaky fucking roof with a bucket on the floor to stop it from soaking the carpet, I'm sitting here wondering if I should blow my fucking brains out if healthcare reform is rolled back in this country, I'm sitting here worried about non white-passing members of my family in a white nationalist fascist society, and these bougie (in the colloquial, not Communist, sense) fucks are telling me that my politics are coming from a position of privilege?!
Some of us actually have something to lose under a fascist regime, like our fucking lives, and these twats swear up and down that the suffering of Minorities and Poors(tm) are the gateway to the revolution. Other than having zero fucking evidence to back that up, considering the level of suffering inflicted on societies worse off than the West's without even the murmurs of revolution, it's real fucking easy to sacrifice someone else's life for your goals - and of course, those goals being not utilitarian, but simply to achieve some sense of self-satisfaction at 'opposing' the 'Imperial Core' or whatever the fuck the buzzword of the week is.
It's absolute insanity.
1000 pretentious leftist magazines would be WAY too many
What we really need is Charlie Chapman. He would end the Israeli complicit immediately
This is illegal under french law I believe
Feel free to report them
Had to go looking, but I found the image this comment is in reaction to.
It's a cartoon from "Liberation" newspaper in france, and the caption is "Ramadan in Gaza" (published just after the hunanitarian aid blockade and famine crisis started in Gaza, for which Israel is now being accused as an act of genocide)
The woman in a hijab is slapping the hand of an emaciated Gazan chasing after a rat, presumably to catch and eat it, and saying "Not before sunset"
It's a pretty openly Islamophobic joke about Gazan's starving during the month of Ramadan where muslims traditionally fast from sunrise to sunset.
I don't think it should need to be said, but even orthodox Muslims recognize exceptions to fasting during ramadan for starvation and bodily injury.
I see it as a joke on how religious fundamentalists would rather condemn their children to die over their own religious choices (which includes waging religious wars)
Religion is all these people have left. Can't condemn them for their last semblance of hope in a hostile environment. Nor can you place sole blame on religion for the conflict. It's a lot deeper than that
(They are allowed to eat during Ramadan. that is if Egypt and Israel didn't withhold international aid, such as flour)
I don't think it should need to be said, but even orthodox Muslims recognize exceptions to fasting during ramadan for starvation and bodily injury.
Pretty sure that's the joke. It'd be real absurd if a cartoon acted otherwise.
