French farmers are the highest-subsidized in all of the EU. One even gets subsidies for having fields lay fallow or reductions in production. And French farmers are well known for their drama. Spilling tons of milk on the motorway, drowning Paris in dung, threats of beheadings. So please forgive me when I just file "letting farmers commit suicide" as yet more drama...

Discounting death because they’re drama queens.

This is awful.

Awful.

I see that the nazis have won, in this world. Really, check out your soul.

And it’s exactly why they’re committing suicide: No-one cares about their lives. They’re stock to you.

They commit suicide because they’re not “priority education zones” (ZEP) which are reserved for racially chosen neighborhoods. So farmers remained bogans in France (like in UK), had low level of education, couldn’t progress to the levels that Arabs could progress to, and their supports disappeared from society. No future.

No country for old men.
