      They're going to pass a law that makes people organ donors by default under the pretext of increasing the availability of organs or whatever, and then they're going to pair that law with a massive government contract for some medical company to handle extraction, storage and distribution of the organs. That corporation will lobby to make the process of delisting yourself from the donors list as difficult as possible, push doctors to recommend organ transplants to patients who don't need them, intentionally tank the quality of healthcare services in places like prisons so that they'll have more potential organs, get caught harvesting organs from people in ICE camps who never consented to donate them, and in the meantime of all of this lower the standards of organ transplants precipitously, resulting in more medical complications for the people who get them.

      That corporation will also operate at a loss for its entire existence, buoyed only by speculative capital, and require a bailout in five to ten years otherwise its bankruptcy will tear a hole in our medical system.

    Does anyone know of a compilation of all the bad things france has done recently? Macron has been doing bad things for years but I feel like it is more frequent than before

      Can be summed up in a few things : deleted a lot of taxes on the rich, did nothing but order the pigs to repress the yellow vests, didn't prosecute cop violence, didn't stop islamist attacks (and their fucking funding), folded when Turkey attacked the kurds (and when Armenia got whacked), signed several laws further attacking civil liberties, removed several organs for sect surveillance. That kind of things: it's pretty fucking bad, and I fear we're on the same path as Australia or the UK, aka a nominally """democratic""" country, but with a fully-fledged authoritarian state designed to protect capitalists and their interests.

      Oh and that's not all he did. There's plenty more I'm forgetting, but that's not the point. The guy is the epitome of what neoliberalism is, any more authoritarian than that and you quickly go into Pinochet-style governance.

          Not a clue since I'm French, but a parody channel goes over all the bullshit in Australia, and there's a lot of it.
