You could start by reading the tremendous life of Lysenko.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trofim_Lysenko

You will see how he used politics to expend his influence on all the soviet agriculture: research, agronomy, industrial production. Not only that lead to a massive agricultural failure but as said Sakharov he was also "responsible [...] for the defamation, firing, arrest, even death, of many genuine scientists".

> a lot of homosexual people got beaten by far right / nazi-like groups.

This IS a lie. Do you have any sources?

There have been one attack on a gay couple, hugely used by the government and their supporting medias. Newspapers have implies (no facts) that the culprits where members of the strike against same sex marriage or far right activists. There was then a huge huge buzz to shame the strikers. And finally, 4 months later, the police arrested 4 youths: 3 in a "cité" (public housing, "ghetto") and one was already in jail, all of them well known of the police services for violence facts. http://www.leparisien.fr/paris-75/agression-homophobe-a-pari...

Some people in the comments do say that the police delayed the arrest so that the government could shame the protesters against same sex marriage.

One more thing, the man beaten reacts to the arrest on a far left web site. https://bellaciao.org/fr/spip.php?article137205 And he is in a complete deny, not being able to recognize that those who beat him have nothing in common with those that protested against same sex marriage.

We may thank Antoine-Augustin Parmentier for his efforts convincing people to eat potatoes.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antoine-Augustin_Parmentier

""" Parmentier therefore began a series of publicity stunts for which he remains notable today, hosting dinners at which potato dishes featured prominently and guests included luminaries such as Benjamin Franklin and Antoine Lavoisier, giving bouquets of potato blossoms to the King and Queen, and surrounding his potato patch at Sablons with armed guards to suggest valuable goods — then instructed them to accept any and all bribes from civilians and withdrawing them at night so the greedy crowd could "steal" the potatoes. (These 54 arpents of impoverished ground near Neuilly, west of Paris, had been allotted him by order of Louis XVI in 1787.[3]) """

The fact that he arrived in France from Poland at the age of 15 may explain that. Plus that his whole family works with him. Does anyone know if he speaks polish with them at work? The company is 100% family owned! Not bad.
