Notre Dame is burning.

I reject the notion that cosmopolitcan secularism would want to ruin Notre Dame by building some IM Pei-style monstrosity. I really don't know if that trend really has a demographic supporting it beyond architects who want to make a name for themselves.

The government wants it. Macron for one has no respect for France's heritage, and then "Jupiter" wants to leave his mark on history by making a big modification to Notre Dame.

Do you have any evidence for that? You know I'm no fan of FBM, but I don't think it's fair to just assume he has some ridiculous plans for Notre Dame just because he's a he's a megalomaniacal creep (which he is).

Un-f**king-believable

Culture minister: a "broad consensus" to rebuild the spine identically.

Thank goodness.

I'm still shocked that he ever wanted to fight that fight in the first place. That was such a frivolous bullsh*t idea. Then again this is a guy who thinks he's Jupiter.

That's horrible. Thankfully the building itself is sound, but the organ and several stained glass windows are gone.

And apparently it's suspected to be intentional. They'd better catch who did this.

Probably time to update the title
