Macron is ‘bunkered’ – Le Pen

Opposition party leader has claimed the French president has abandoned his people

 

Emmanuel Macron’s decision to push through pension reforms – in defiance of public opinion on the issue – has created a “total rupture”between the French president and his country’s people, opposition party leader Marine Le Pen has claimed.

 

“The problem is that Emmanuel Macron is completely bunkered,” Le Pen said on Saturday in an interview with France’s BFM TV. “He can no longer leavethe Elysée [presidential palace] without arousing the ire of a people he refuses to listen to and whose will he refuses to respect.”

 

Macron was booed by crowds in eastern France on Wednesday, when he made his first public appearances since he signed into law an unpopular pension law earlier this month. Union workers claimed credit for cutting off the electricity at a woodworking factory in Muttersholtz just before the president arrived, leaving him partially in the dark during his visit. The pension reforms, which included raising France’s retirement age to 64 from 62, sparked mass protests and civil unrest across the country.

 

“He generated anger, and it is he who is at the origin of the disorder, the chaos,” Le Pen said. “I believe that today, there is a total rupture between Emmanuel Macron and the French people.”

 

Le Pen accused the president of refusing to listen to public outcry on the pension law, reflecting a “failing democracy.” She added, “When the people say no, it’s no. We will have to tell him that democracy is doing what we said we were going to do. Democracy is respecting the will of the people.”

 

An Ifop Group poll released on Wednesday showed that Le Pen has overtaken Macron in public popularity. Asked which of the two personalities they prefer, respondents favored Le Pen over the president by a 47%-42% margin. Macron defeated Le Pen in last year’s presidential election by morethan 17 percentage points. He beat her even more handily in 2017, winning 66.1% of the votes.

 

France’s next presidential election is scheduled for 2027, when Macron won’t be able to run again because of term limits. Le Pen, leader of France’s National Rally party, plans to run for president for the fourth time. Even before Macron signed the pension bill last week, a poll showed that he would lose to Le Pen by a 55%-45% margin if they were to face off again.

Stop committing war crimes online, Red Cross tells gamers

(Gamers say, you first!)

The group’s “Play by the Rules” initiative purports to protect human rights by lecturing players about their in-game behavior

 

The International Committee of the Red Cross is urging gamers to adhere to real-life rules of engagement while playing their favorite first-person shooters. The NGO claims its “Play by the Rules” campaign, launched last week on its official Twitch channel, will “show everyone that even wars have rules – rules which protect humanity on battlefields IRL (in real life).”

 

To attract gamers to the campaign, the Red Cross drafted a few popular Twitch streamers to broadcast themselves fighting honorably on its channel, setting them loose on well-known titles including Call of Duty: Warzone, Rainbow 6 Siege, PUBG Battlegrounds, and Escape from Tarkov. The group even created its own game mode in the title Fortnite that incorporates the laws of combat.

 

The rules include a ban on “thirsting” (shooting downed or otherwise incapacitated enemies), no attacking non-violent NPCs (non-player characters), no targeting civilian buildings, and mandatory use of medical kits to heal anyone wounded, no matter the alliance of the injured party.

 

“Every day, people play games set in conflict zones right from their couch. But right now, armed conflicts are more prevalent than ever,” the group’s website states. “To the people suffering from their effects, this conflict is not a game.” The project is supposed to “protect the humanity and dignity of people all over the world,” according to the ICRC.

 

While digital violence is likely far from the minds of victims of its real-world equivalent, this is the second time the Red Cross has found time to put together such a campaign in the past decade. The NGO hosted an event in an Arma III module called Law of War in 2017 that saw gamers discard their weapons and play as humanitarian workers, assuming a set of responsibilities that included responding to people in crisis, defusing landmines, and submitting to journalists’ interviews. The release raised $176,667 for the ICRC.

 

The NGO began investigating whether the Geneva and Hague conventions could be applied to video game depictions of war in 2011, calling on governments to impose regulations forcing developers to limit violations like torture, extrajudicial executions, attacks on civilians, and other atrocities if they could not be convinced to do so voluntarily. Facing backlash for spending its time fretting over virtual genocides rather than preventing real ones, the ICRC argued it had plenty of staff to do both and sought to reassure gamers they would not be hauled in front of any war crimes tribunals.
