Now is a good time, Paris is a good example to point out statist ideologues don't really care about public opinion, despite using it as a weapon.

“We are in a state of insurrection, I’ve never seen anything like it.” Jeanne d’Hauteserre, mayor of Paris’ 8th district, near Arc.
Bet @AngelaMerkeICDU & @EmmanuelMacron would give their left arms to have @realDonaldTrump's approval rating right now.
France used to be extremely nationalistic, and proud of it. They had little patience for Americans who didn't at least try to speak French.

Good times.

In WWII, that nationalism largely prevented them from allying w/ their socialist brethren in Berlin. It was a good thing.
