What does your country thinks about the yellow jackets movement?

based & yellowpilled

We are neutral, news have only reported about them being dissatisfied working class people. I heard something about them being linked to xenophobic or antsmitic opinions but the weather is more interesting than their protests by now.

The copycats here are mostly braindead brexiteers who are poorly educated and get mocked. There's little sympathy for protesters here, people are moaning about the climate change protesters atm and saying that they should protest somewhere that isn't disruptive.

They are right to do it but I dont get why it's going on for so long. If its taking this much time some crazy shit should be coming out of it

Macron is gonna announce his reforms in response Thursday
But from what has been leaked so far, it's not that groundbreaking

Rig pigs should be shot in the head and thrown in a ditch.

I don't understand, they want stricter traffic laws?

These niggers want less tax on fuel despite being cheaper than in holland lmfao.
How long will these clowns stick around

Any movement taking its quarrels with the government to the streets instead of LARPing online is good in my book.

Popular revolts are a good thing

>t.

They stand up for the people and nation, unlike most of us. That is really good that frenchmen have spine and aren't afraid of their government. I can't give them enough praises. Hope they also care about immigrants, too. That revolutionary spirit is awesome, on par with civic consciousness

I don't think the yellow vests here are outright racist like the left-wing media tries to portray them, but they are blue collar people and they are not necessarily worldly in their outlook.

The only working class people with balls in the modern west

The yellow jacket thing is not about immigration, it's been barely mentioned, curiously
The people demonstrating are almost exclusively white people though, usually from areas that are a drive away from cities

Idgaf

The gov and their puppet masters called them ultra turbo heinous racist fanatical fascist nazis for months then realized hordes of commies had joined the movement and that they had massive popular support so they made muh concessions and said that actually the yellow vests were really good guys (some member of the gov unironically said they were some kind of extremist PRO MACRON supporters) but of course anyone protesting after the concessions wasn't a true yellow vest (true yellow vests aka guys shutting their mouths are the good guys now remember). These days they just protray yellow vests (the ones actually protesting) as Joker tier villain extremists who "just want to see the world burn" and destroy the republic and society overall

I see clear correlation between people's ethnicity and the demonstration. Can't tell for sure watching streams, but it truly seems like nobody apart from your average Jacque the Frenchman doesn't care about taxes and whatnots. Sad if true

Are they going to make these concessions or that was all joke from the beginning and they are going to screw you over?

all power to the proletariat

Well, the GJ are for the most part, braindead and poorly educated. Sadly they are praised instead of being mocked.
Two things upset them and sparked the movement: the speed limitation to 80km/h and a rise in fuel price. It was seen as Paris (home of the elite, where you don't have to use your car) versus the rest of France (where public transportation is shit).
Macron was a total idiot to make these useless reforms, but maybe the revolt would have happened later anyway.
Now they have all been manipulated by anarchists and they just want to see Macron out (which won't happen), so I don't know when this shit will stop.

Based liar

I think they're based as fuck. I wish Americans would stand up to their leaders like the French always have.

German media spent a long time worshipping Macron saying he's the saviour of the world and everything so they don't like them. Last time I heard they said they were antisemitic Nazis who beat up Jews.

>Are they going to make these concessions or that was all joke from the beginning and they are going to screw you over?
Yeah but the concessions are weak shit compared to what the yellow vests asked especially in term of democracy, even the way bigger ones coming up next aren't enough to really change things
Concessions are a way to calm down the crowds and to appear as listening to the people while continuing to screw them over

You guys make me feel so clueless about the GJ

GJs are antisemitic nazis like anybody criticizing the neoliberal order

Macron's response is weak but the movement is slowing down unfortunately.
At some point I had hoped it would really change things but...

>more buying power
>basically more redistribution of wealth in society
So confuse.

Why and how are french ppl sympathetic to interventionist measures?

They themselves have no clue of what they are doing though.
They are the losers of globalization, basically the average guy living in the province, who gets most of his news from Facebook and so-called "alternative" medias, would like to buy the last iphone but can't afford it, hasn't left his place for the last 10 years and would want to live like the rich people.
Honestly that's something only people in Western countries would understand. These people have been spoiled for the last 50 years, and now things turn to shit, so they are mad.

nice cope , go suck macron's cock now

Will the yellow vests stop after them or they are aware that these concessions don't change things? Tbh, I graduate this year and was thinking about getting master's in France. Is it certainly going to go worse down slippery slope or I can come without any expectations of getting runned over by truck of peace? I actually am clueless at this point

>These people have been spoiled for the last 50 years, and now things turn to shit, so they are mad.

These two points contradict, they just seem like the French version of the left behinds in the Rust Belt and in former industrial cities in Britain. No matter how the country and economy is doing they'll never really profit from it

Sorry I have just misinterpreted. I will try to formulate another question:

So the yellow jackets moviment is anti-establishment. It meant that they are more right-wing, right?

He's unironically right but I wouldn't be as critical to yellow jackets
They are indeed people who lost in the last 30 years. They live in rural-ish areas where jobs dissapear, their house lost value where it increased in cities. The fuel they go to work with is increasingly taxed by an elite who doen't need cars cause they live in city centers. The infrastructure and hospitals they had in countryside disappeared because everything is centralized in cities now.
Their salary doesn't increase while companies and mondialized elites barely even pay tax.

I'm not really in their situation but I understand them.

I think the protests are contained to the weekend and can be avoided, i don't think this is going to end with the Storming of the Bastille.

>I'm going to burn shit up and throw shit at riot police
>WTF COPS WHY ARE YOU USING TEAR GAS ACAB ACAB

I dont know anything about them but I heard its an alliance of far left and far right to take down Macron who is in the center. And something to do with gasoline tax?

Overall its not my country so its not my business, but maybe France should invest in electric cars/public transit then gas tax would be a non-issue? Food for thought. Global warming is gonna happen regardless btw.

France is not the UK or the US though, it has always been more "socialist" and better at redistributing wealth. Until the 00's, the country was way more rich than the UK or even Germany (pre-unification).
So these people may not have been rich, but they were not poor either, and enjoyed good quality of public services.

Well, that's true. The thing is, France is not anymore in a position to have an important influence over the world. You can't change the whole system in France, fine, but the world won't adapt to you, and the economy will fall. The only way would be to change things at an European level...

>So the yellow jackets moviment is anti-establishment. It meant that they are more right-wing, right?

They are anti-establishement , mostly they dislike the current President, bankers, the 1%...
They are not really right-wing though. It's kinda diverse on that regard

>They are anti-establishement , mostly they dislike the current President, bankers, the 1%...

Aka Populism.....this kinda stuff has been encouraged by Russian hackers all over the world

>populism
It's not though... There are no nationalistic, racial or immigration related demands

Populism doesn't mean nationalism. It means going against "the elites" or "the 1%" (though these terms are often used as a dogwhistle for anti-semitism, they dont have to be)

Russian hackers have been trying to plant both left wing and right wing and neither wing populism around the world because its destabilizing force

Why try so hard to force things into pre-determined categories?

>Populism doesn't mean nationalism. It means going against "the elites" or "the 1%"

Okay in that sense, they they are.
Macron and his party did say they launched an investigation about Russian hacking but they didn't find anything. It all started when Macron initiated a new fuel tax

Do you think that this spontaneous popular movement will bring some outsider in the next election, likes what happened in US and Brazil? Is This outsider should be Le Pen?

Le Pen will be the saviour of the Republic (and that's a bad thing)

I unironically don't think so. In percentage they are not a very big fraction of the country.
French people typically have the balls to demonstrate, but election times come, they get tricked by TV propaganda and end up voting for the same shit

>likes what happened in
the same way that happened in.
Fix'd.

>Russians posting memes means your grevinces against the government aren't legitimate.

Kill yourself boot-licker. All our leaders must hang.

They are anti-establishment, but politically, I can't say. The start of the movement was mainly made up of Le Pen voters, but now those who are left are fighting with the black bloc, anarchists and cie.

What's funny is that Macron kinda predicted this and was elected thanks to this. He said that there was no more left/right, but only the progressists and the "losers". So basically he saw this shit coming but only provoked it even more (his reforms, his little comments, etc...). So I don't know if he's playing 4D chess I'm not aware of or if he has totally lost the plot. I guess it's the latter.

Nice try tho

They don't care about you. Why should you care about them?

Far left and far right are both ways that the failures of society try to lash out at the winners. That's why both are so present on 4channel

>and that's a bad thing
Bad thing to restore the monarchy?

>or if he has totally lost the plot
do not speak of JVPITER in this way

Le Pen is utterly incompetent, and she has the name of her "controversial" father.
I'm pretty sure that if the far right had anyone else than the Le Pen family, they would have already won.

Wasn't their some other non-FN, right-wing politician who people were hoping would salvage the right after all its scandals?

>Then she went on a nazi tangent and the people became quiet

please tell me there's a source

Isn't far-rightism fundamentally incompatible with French values? Maybe I don't understand French values properly.

But we live in the social media era. Social media have changed 180 degrees the dynamics of elections of Brazil even though 60% of population have internet access and most of them are not so literate as french ppl.

Well... but brazilians, in general, are more conservative than french.

The values of the Republic are not necessarily the values of the French. I'd say we are getting closer and closer to a 50/50.

Can you explain in more detail? Genuinely curious.

Pre-determined categories?

Interesting point. Is Macro more like a technocrat/positivist?

Me too.

At this point it’s retarded. They have no formalized demands so it’s impossible to negotiate with them. What they want varies and sometimes contradict other protesters demands. It’s absolutely stupid that French people who want nothing to do with this shit have to be inconvenienced and pay for the damage these people commit.

far-rightism is fundamentally incompatible with having a brain desu

Millenial far-leftists and hardcore conservative boomers here likes them for different reasons and want to see something like it happening here, the governing party here is very similar to En Marche! in ideology by the way.

You forgot that French people like to complain and to riot. I lived abroad and when I went back that's what shocked me the most. The non stop complaining

Basé.

salamou alaykom kek

>They have no formalized demands so it’s impossible to negotiate with them
Another victim of propaganda, there has been an official list of demands for more than 2 months now

It sounds like I would fit in there. Why do you hate Americans again?

LREM bots reached Jow Forums

More and more people are eager to try "something else", because what has been tried until now hasn't been successful for them. Maybe a system change won't happen soon, or maybe it will, I don't know.
For example in 2002, Chirac made 80%, Le Pen (father) made less that 20%.
15 years later, Macron made 60% and Le Pen (daughter) made 40%. A recent survey also showed that around 50% of French would like a military as a head of state. There's also an increase in people wanting more "authority".
People don't wake up thinking "Liberté, Egalité, Fraternité", more and more people think it's bullshit.

No one really knows will happen next, as of today I personally only had transport issues while going to uni for like Week or so due to the highschoolers riots against Macron being in the middle of my bus route last year and no disturbance related to the GJ per say.

No elite support, so it can go on forever. I won't be surprised if they're still there in 2050.

tl;dr gimme more money and cheaper fuel

One of the things France (and everyone else) must know about is "socialism" and income redistribution policies don't make society more equal as expected in theory but make the inverse of that.

Equality is a utopian idea.

Yeah, who would want to live in a utopia?

I want to fuck Le Pen (daughter). I only find her moderately physically attractive but there's something about her that suggests she'd be a fun lay.

A Utopian idea is another way to say an unattainable one.

Based brainlet

Kinda. Are they wrong though? Salaries haven't increased much while housing and other expenses almost doubled. Macron wanted to put a yet another tax on top of that, can you blame them to have started to riot?

Sounds like the same pattern as we have here, but Americans are too stupid and passive to protest.

To be honest yellow jackets are usually pretty dumb too but at least they reacted. Too bad it won't change much things at all because they're losing steam
