Sarkozy...fucking fascist.

[Faux Real]

As if he would "help" the very same people he considers "scum" and "trash".

[Ismail]

Sarközy is bourgeois. So no.

By "regenerate," I assume what he really means is "gentrificate" or "stratificate." So he may actually succeed. But this is not the optimum outcome for these neighborhoods or the people there in general. As to the question of him actually giving a shit? Please.

The point is to discuss it in this thread, which is why the newsbot was made to post these links.
