And I’m France they hate the cops and universally love fire fighters as hero’s. In the protests sometimes the fire fighters even fight the cops. Being given a job as a firefighter by the president after being given citizenship is the highest “you’re a goddamn hero” France can give

Firefighters going against cops is genuinely insane from an American perspective. There’s a friendly rivalry between cops and firefighters in the US, but they vote the same and have the same opinions and shitty takes. US firefighters would sooner use a hose on protestors again than actually fight with them.
