No simp. The author isn’t communist. He is pointing out their tyranny.
Yes, it is indeed tyranny to confiscate 40% of someones income for 40 years, pay them a very small retirement check and then keep the change when they die. And then to nervously say they will go broke of you do not delay two extra years.

In America they steal 12.4% of your income for Social Security alone. They get to invest it however they wish for 45 years. At the end they begrudgingly give you 1200-1500 a month which they still tax. And if you die, they keep everything.

Of a person earned a very achievable 40 a year across their lifetime, they should all reach age 65 with over a million in principal and enjoy a benefit of 70k per year as far as the eye can see.

The communist is the wealthy leaders who confiscate a huge slice of your salary for 40+ years, claiming they are doing so for you. And then claim poverty when it’s time to pay the pension they agreed upon. Yet they are an endless fount of cash for wars people do not want, migrants, and dozens of other wasteful ideas. Those things are never asked to wait a few more years, or to get by with less.

You’re wrong, simp.

The author is a communist as he thinks it is a “tyranny” to raise the retirement age.

Are you a communist?

You can own guns in France, rifles, shotguns and pistols are all allowed, including semiautos.

There is no codified right to arms.
Gun ownership is regulated and a license is required and membership in a sporting or hunting group, along with training and a mental health evaluation.

Carry is only allowed in special circumstances.

None the less, in a nation of 66 million estimates of private gun ownership range from 10-20 million, estimates are of as many as 30 million illegal weapons.

A friend of mine born in Algeria, now living in Marseilles and a former French Foreign Legion para says the country awash in illegal guns, that everyone of his generation at least has one hidden away.

Update...

Macron belatedly realized that he was wearing an 80K Euro watch during an interview, so he removed it under the table hoping nobody would notice. Can't be seen wearing items the ordinary French can't afford while you're making them work longer.
