Amazing that I can live in the country and hear nothing about this. I’ve just read the Guardian article and I guess not living in Paris or another major city might be one of the reasons.
Not sure if it’s still holding true, but from my travels around France a couple decades ago, I got the distinct impression that there were like “two Frances”: Paris, and the rest.
From all the news about civil unrest and stuff, it would seem like Paris has got even more of a separate vibe in that time.
