Europeans don't, maybe sometimes can't, understand the absolute crushing pressure and gaslighting that most Americans are put through to make us the way we are.

@s1m0n4 @nicksilkey @GustavinoBevilacqua @quinn for the parts of France I know about (basically Paris and a some secluded village in the East and North) I would disagree. The social fabric is very different.
People are less isolated even when going middle class.
But solidarity looks weaker here, even within the poor people.@benjamin @nicksilkey @GustavinoBevilacqua @quinn we agree to disagree. #France has a publicly-supported private school system with not other function than creating a social network among certain circles.
People send their kids to these semi-private schools to create a social status, to let them have a certain kind of friends.
And while public schools consistently lose students because of the fertility drop, private schools don't. -
