You know it is very odd when self identified socialists make fun of the French for having too many labour rights. The cheating on their spouses thing, whatever. But It is a common theme even in marxist spaces to see "lol the french take a lot of breaks and riot when their rights get taken away what fools".
my intention was not to make fun of french labour rights but rather to point out it's harder to get worked to the bone if you have labour rights to begin with, i see how it came across as the opposite, sorry for that
Then consider my post more of a general comment on french jokes.
I think it's more an artifact of Amerikkkans not being able to imagine taking a piss break without risking getting fired, with flavors of the general "har har Frenchies lost two world wars and
had to save them" despite the incredible string of Ls hanging on the neck of the burgerreich
Americans spend a lot of time being bitter that things are still quite a bit less shit in Europe for most people day to day
