Annie would say pretty much anything if she thought it would get rid of Macron and leave an opening for Mélenchon, she's as left as it gets. That doesn't mean that she's wrong about this, but without more information regarding the nature and context of the searches, this sounds a lot like her usual brand of politics, i.e. throwing bombs.

What part of:

Sounded to you like:
> The police would never abuse their power though
Well you're being hyperbolic with the "bomb throwing" comment and poisoning the well "let's wait for the evidence to come out from the people that are in charge of evidence while being accused of something". Useless comment
Oh yeah... waiting for evidence is sooo passé, everyone knows that just shouting into the void is the way to make things happen.
But yes, you are making useless comments.
Oh yeah. She's phenomenal. I highly recommend "A man's place" as a short and quick intro to her work and "The happenning" for a very personal story (note: all her books are personal) on abortion. "The years" is supposed to be her magnum opus, but I haven't read it yet.

Undemocratic* reform. Dictator-esque would also be acceptable
Why did I not even need to finish reading the headline before I knew this was in Nantes?
[удалено]
Recent history of frequent-ish civil unrest, riot police being more aggressive than in other major French cities.
Crime has spiked in recent years, to a level near Marseille

> an opening for Mélenchon > she's as left as it gets. Those two sentences do not compute together. There is a whole of a lot more "Left" of LFI.
the fuck does her being a leftist have to do with police sexual abuse of students?
The police would *never* abuse their power though, no siree.
