The linked post (and its references) from 2022 critics the security model of Firefox, especially its poor sandboxing.

How true is it still today? Has the situation improved?

Stochastic terrorism is a such bullshit concept, only designed to prevent examination of some political ideologies.

> France is one of the countries with the highest levels of inequalities

France has a Gini coefficient in line with other OECD countries.

> one of the most racist countries on earth

Citation needed.

> even little girls can't be allowed into school if they display signs of muslim worship

I don't see how that's racist. No religious symbol are allowed in school, even christian cross are banned.

> many people who reside in France are denied citizenship

Why would residing in a country grant you citizenship?

There is no such thing as free health care or free education. You pay it through heavy taxation where France is the champion.

A riot is not a "coup", especially by people with no weapons. The people attacking asians are mostly not from the right wing crowd.

Isn't there a lot of calls to violence on Twitter and Facebook? Why singling out Parler, they moderate calls to violence as best as they can too.

Well that part is true but I don't think they choose the best way to deal with it.

Look for actual polls, the belief that HCQ works and masks don't are in minority among Republicans, same with most of them having never heard of Qanon, the proud Boys or the boogaloo (which is more a meme than what was depicted in msm) These positions are inflated by the MSM to make right wingers look like crazy lunatics.
