Nah, eff it, I’m down with this.
(Maybe it’s because I go to a lot of conferences for work and people always end up chit chatting during panels or presentations, which is irritating to say the least).

After that plane video, whenever I see him, I just feel sad for him. I know it’s wrong and he probably doesn’t want to be seen that way but I can’t help it.

This is a good example of how power and status should be used.

It’s so weird seeing the English side of the internet talk about macron

Based on the title of this post, I was really unsure if this was a good or bad against Macron 😅

This was fine. It’s annoying as fuck when other people are having side convos and you’re trying to listen.

I really hate that I kind of like Macron.

I haven’t seen Macron ever do this before.
This happened in Kenya and he is presumably scolding a bunch of Black people. I wonder if he’d be this comfortable scolding people like that in a Western country.
There’s a history of Macron being a little too comfortable/callous when he is in Africa, so I don’t love this. He is obviously right in this single instance, but I don’t think he’d talk to white/western people like that tbh
