Huh? I was being funny with the "safe" comment. Also, they weren't protesting tax breaks for billionaires, we're they? They were protesting environmental legislation.

I do sympathize with this moment, however.

    They were protesting environmental legislation targeting the working class. It wasn't targeting the true polluters and it sure as hell wasn't going to curb climate change. The government tried to use the excuse of climate change as a way to tax the working class more. Let's be clear the neoliberal French government would never pass true environmental legislation because it would threaten business and elite interests!
