    Yeah, because a non-militerized police force and universal healthcare in France has nothing to do with it.

      French people don’t riot because they have that stuff. They have that stuff because they riot.

      It’s easy to forget what French people are rioting over. But also easy to forget that Macron has held office in an iron grip for decades, with no end in sight.

      Also, ffs, please stop pretending Americans don’t riot.
