Context: the Thin Blue Line is symbolism for the role of police in maintaining public order. It has been co-opted by the alt-right. There is also a Thin Red Line to represent nurses. The French Wikipedia happened to use it in a legend to explain what the red lines on a map mean.

    Can you explain more? I don’t see how this is any more than using a regular red line to indicate something on a map. Since I don’t speak French, I don’t know what it’s indicating, but I don’t see anything to do with cops or nurses here.
