You are trying to fight it, by clicking it, and sharing it, which leads to more clicks and shares.

I am ignoring it, because there's nothing to gain by clicking it and sharing it, which puts more revenue in their pocket.

If you got your news from credible sources and stuck to the facts (I.E. "majority of France is unhappy with the new gas tax and is united in protesting it" which is all I need to know) and ignored the rest you'd probably be happier. Instead you spend your time seeking out CNN (seriously, the way to weaken CNN is to ignore them FFS, the less people read their shit the less of an impact they make) and sharing their shit, which is only helping their cause. They don't give a shit about yours, or my, opinion. As long as you click.

S/N if the previous president of France was the one that set the gas tax in motion, and Macron was the one who kept it going, why are you putting it all on Macron?

By that same logic when the deficit becomes outrageous after Trump leaves office, it will be Trump's successor's fault for not doing anything about it.

It gets put on Macron because he's already made sweeping reforms...he had the ability to reset the socialist Hollande previous policies but chose not too. Macron has the ability, so he made a choice so its on him.

Yeah, I agree about the deficit...Im glad we both agree that government spending should be slashed..at a big rate.
