    France erupts into riots.

    Massive Yellow Vest Riots in Lyon and Paris, but dont expect much coverage in MSM.

    A cabal of the top generals wrote to Macron and told him to sort out the problems or they would initiate a coupe de tat.

    A poll of frenchmen puts the majority in agreement with the generals.

    Looks like Marine Le Pen is going to be president. Macaroni boy is done for.

    What's the issue that has everyone so upset?

    I thought the French only had to work 36-37 weeks per year, only about 30 hours or so per week?

    Macron imports all these foreign workers to do the dirty jobs the French won't do?

    Was there a price increase on wine?

    Travel restrictions mean that French peoples have to spend their 15 weeks or so of vacation in their own homes?

    Oh, so it's anti-racism backlash from the "racist" Frenchmen? Ahhh, sounds familiar.

    Yeah, we gots ourselves a bunch of retired generals over here too. They didn't like the new LGBTQ military wokeness, so they got out. But that retired general thing, you know, no army under their command, so no coup. Yellow vests, you're on your own.

    Gosh, no one could have seen this coming.


    One would have to assume riots are exactly what French leaders intended all along. When you ignore the will of the people over and over again the result is absolutely predictable - 100% of the time.

    Well especially with the french, rioting and striking is a national hobby.

    I've heard the frogs don't use deodorant all that much and so I suppose that could be an issue during long duration enclosures.
