      Far right milicien*, not just a random student

      Edit for the downvote: vive la République, you will never win

      Ah yes, when the far right murders people for political reasons, the question is [“but is it terrorism?”](https://www.reuters.com/world/europe/far-right-inspired-murder-forces-france-wrestle-with-what-counts-terrorism-2025-06-16/)… or, if you’re the BBC, absolute silence.

      If a Nazi is the recipient of the violence they want to inflict on others, the whole “far left” is expected to go soul-searching over it.

      As usual, the double-standards in favor of the far right are both blatant and absolutely fucking ridiculous.

      Edit: BTW all the butthurt Nazis mad at me for pointing out how they constantly get treated with the softest of kid gloves can go fuck themselves

      >On Thursday afternoon Deranque had given support to a hard-right feminist collective Némésis, which staged a small protest against a left-wing politician’s visit to Lyon’s Institute of Political Studies (IEP), commonly known as Sciences-Po.

      Its pretty lazy journalism to not dig a single click deeper

      >Originally from Saint-Cyr-sur-le-Rhône (Auvergne-rhône-alpes), Quentin Deranque is a 23-year-old mathematics student and activist identity nationalist[8],[9],[10],[11],[12] small group neofascist Allobroges Bourgoin based in Isère and the group nationalist-revolutionary lyonnais Audace, from Social stronghold, while theFrench action claimed to have counted him among his activists[13],[14].

      He participated in the 2025 edition of the neo-Nazi rally May 9 Committee[13],[14],[15],[16].

      We are expected to shed a tear for the fascists when they suffer the consequences of being hateful and evil.

      but er

      RIP BOZO PACKWATCH

      edit: the right winger that commented “i hope you’re 12” then deleted it, that is deeply ironic considering right wingers absolutely love 12 year olds, see Epstein’s list.

      ‘Student’?

      ‘nationalist activist’?

      Come on, BBC.

      Quentin Deranque was once a member of Action Française, an antisemitic, islamophobic and racist org. Just last year, he walked with neonazis and the protest he was working with before he died was led by an overtly racist organization.

      That doesn’t mean he deserved to die, or that his killers don’t deserve the manslaughter charges that will be brought against them.

      But let’s not undersell what this truly is: a street fight between fascists and anti-fascists.

      Vollmer: A martryr? How do you find a martyr?

      * *Shadow: You do not find one, Mr. Vollmer. You choose one. You take one of no value, and you make him into a symbol. You wrap him in a flag, and you make his death work for you. Find a man who is of no value while he’s alive, but who can serve you when he’s dead. Is there such a one?*

      The methods and political discourse of the far-left in France is way more fascist than any opposition. I get it hurts many people mindset, but that’s just how it is.

    10. HugoVaz on

      Man… he and at least two other neo-nazis went to try to find a fight with far left elements, found a fight but soon realize there were more far left elements joining, and they got beaten, two managed to run away and Quentin laid fallen.

      I condemn the act out of principle, but I have zero sympathy for him, he found what he went looking for and this time it was him laying fallen and not some inocent harmless victim.

      And this is why following this absolute tankie moron of Mélenchon, french radical/far (whatever) left leader, was Left biggest mistake of the 20 last years.

      His strategy was to play the same game as the far right. Have the shittiest takes on Europe, economy, geopolitcs, diving in whatever leftist conspiracy he could… and calling for violence, all the time.

      And now they fell into the trap. It’s not even that leftists are evil or dangerous, they’re just idiots.

      The French Left has become just as indoctrinated, populist, filthy as the far right. No ideas, no project, just useless and boring peformative moral stances, one after the other.

      Being Left used to mean someting. It meant being pragmatic. Being visionary. Being open and being good. Now being Left just means being a heinous goblin.

      Can we finally just ban and jail these tankies, Islamic, and Russian puppets already :D? La France Insoumise has done nothing but suffocate most if not all political capital from the left for a minority of mentally ill revolutionary larpers wanting to “own the libs” which to them is essentially everyone not far left and therefore Nazi-adjacent lmfao

      It is possible to think that someone is both a disgusting human being and that despite that, political violence is still a bad thing.

      Yeah this sub is cooked by extremists, this isnt a rich and famous guy with influence it’s a 23 years old kid, some ramdom kid that got stomped to death, he being buried by his mother, all that for being part of a protest no one cared about anyways, he was beaten to death by 10 people, there is no bella ciao here, no heroism or making the world better.
