minus-squarecabbage@piefed.sociallinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·edit-22 months ago The French embassy in Wellington denied involvement, stating that “the French Government does not deal with its opponents in such ways”. The poor ambassador must have been so fucking annoyed to learn that this is, in fact, how the French government deals with its opponents. He would perhaps have been less surprised had he ever been randomly arrested or beaten up by cops at a political protest.
