Jordan Bardella, leader of France’s far-right National Rally party, was hit on the head with an egg Saturday, just days after another incident in which a protester threw flour at him.

Bardella was at an event in Moissac, southwest France, to promote his latest book when a man broke the egg on his head.

The suspected attacker, a 74-year-old man, was arrested and taken into custody for violence against a public official, prosecutor Montauban Bruno Sauvage told AFP.

Next is milk, then sugar, then you beat him thoroughly and put him in the oven.

Last time someone in France let people eat cake, it didn't go too well for them.

No, they are still missing the butter and sugar.

[-] halcyoncmdr@lemmy.world 21 points 2 months ago

Give it time. Its a slow recipe, but I trust the French to follow through if its a protest.

No, the next step is panko/breadcrumbs.

And after three strikes, you dunk him in hot oil.

To be fair I never imagined that "eat the rich" (or in this case, eat the Reich) would turn out Kentucky Fried, but I'm all for it.

America: throw a whole pre-made sandwich at a cop

France: individually throw every ingredient to make every part of a sandwich from scratch

Nope! Sorry. Still just a wet sack of shit.

You can't eat your cake and have it too

[-] echodot@feddit.uk 11 points 2 months ago

You can, through the magic of buying two of them.

I've heard of slow cooking, but this is next level stuff.

[-] Draedron@lemmy.dbzer0.com 33 points 2 months ago

So just milk and sugar missing and he turns into a cake?

[-] lemmy_outta_here@lemmy.world 8 points 2 months ago

Some Morton’s and a little milk and we can call it salt and batter-y. Just deserts, i say.

If the next encounter is breadcrumbs, this schnitzel is ready for the fryer.

I think you need to beat the pork vigorously first, to tenderize the meat, you know

I'm sorry but this is fucking hilarious

I'm desperate to know what will be next. Jam? Chocolate spread? Cream?

[-] RickyRigatoni@retrolemmy.com 13 points 2 months ago

The 74 year-old is a hero and remembers what his parents said about the fucking Nazis and Vichy French.

The Marsha P. Johnson method suggests that a brick is more effective at creating change.

Guess the next step is to deep fry him.

[-] sukhmel@programming.dev 11 points 2 months ago

I can't understand if I should praise aiming skills or if the egg was cracked up close and personal. Tried to check in the article and saw what Bardella made of it:

The more we make progress, the closer we get to power, the more the violence from the far left, intolerance and pure stupidity are unleashed

For fuck's sake, he just barely survived an assassination no less
