France is a strange country. There are a lot of things about French culture that defy common sense. But one of the more disturbing things I’ve come across recently is the “solidarity movement” of a group called the Identity Bloc, whose mission is to fight multiculturalism in Europe. Apparently this group of wackos did not learn any lessons from WW2, but also disturbing is their use of “pig soup” as a form of protest. How can soup be a form of protest, you ask? This particular soup is very French in origin – it is an Alsatian recipe made with smoked bacon, pigs’ ears, feet and tails, vegetables and sausages. The Identity Bloc goes around France serving the soup to the homeless and hungry – with their mission being to “serve our own before we serve others” (ie immigrants). While feeding the homeless may seem like an honorable thing to do, the protest comes in the fact that the soup is meant to exclude those who do not eat pork, primarily Muslims and Jews. Very very disturbing.
