Quels transports il doit exciter!
C'est nous qu'on ose méditer
De rendre à l'antique esclavage !
Aux armes, citoyens,
Formez vos bataillons,
Marchons, marchons !
Qu'un sang impur
Abreuve nos sillons !

Vive la resistance.
It seems the ruling class, worldwide, doesn’t care one bit about the public.

Bring back the guillotine
the people are revolting!
You said it! They stink on ice!
The country’s 1st lady is a tranny so nothing their ruling class does should surprise anyone.
