A controversial joke
The City of Béziers posted this new poster on its Facebook account. “To start the year off right, remember to sort your waste,” we can read in the City’s post. This publication quickly went viral, sparking many reactions. “Outrageous, not smart…”, “not very intelligent as an advertising strategy”, or even “this mayor is really sick”, are among the dozens of disapproving comments posted under the publication. Despite this, this little joke still made some Internet users laugh, who also let themselves go with their little joke: “let's not insult waste in general, there is some that is recyclable”, “there is a lot of it missing in the photo”, “excellent”, we can also read under the controversial post.
