    Don’t be such a pussy. You’ll let people step all over you if you’re afraid to fight back.

      If you don’t want to be a pussy, fight the people who wronged you. Fighting bystenders and their property makes you a coward.

      Ah the mighty keyboard warrior.

      What you are basically implying is that you are a “pussy” when you don’t rob stores and destroy other peoples property? Don’t like the government, vote for something else, or start a party yourself. If we allow people that are mad about anything to simply start destroying things and stealing stuff, then we are far from a society I want to live in.

        Imagine believing that voting changed anything. The only candidates who can win are the ones approved by the oligarchs.

        Except the damage these pension changes will cause to these workers is likely trillions of euros over the next 60 years. Even if they did 100 billion in short term damages it would still be a better investment in the long term to prevent these changes as written’
