⁉️🇫🇷 French national strike

Contrary to the last week protests, rotten with syndicalists and leftists, today's protest is more populistic. With people from all french regions, yellow vests, former soldiers (here with the maroon beret, paratrooper one).

Sociology of the protest is closer to the ones of 2018 than to the last weeks ones.

⁉️🇫🇷 French national strike

Protesters set a Christmas tree on fire and destroyed a Tesla car parked near the protest.

Fire is important for protesters :

- it creates a special atmosphere enforcing a "crowd psychology" of collective action (read Gustave Le Bon Book)

- it creates smoke, hiding protesters from CCTV and drones.

- it forces riot police to change their strategy as they are forced to extinguish the fire or call & protect fire fighters. Thus they lose men and time.

- and it creates a good esthetic for information warfare.

> TL;DR : Mister Fire is the best friend of Le French Protester.

Take the fire-pill 🔥
