Going by social media reactions, I'm seeing these street-blocking protests getting praises from both people on the left and the right. I'm trying to decipher what I can by translating French articles on the matter but I'm still not entirely sure what the ideology behind this protest is.
I mean, going against a colonialist government is always based, but I'd feel a little icky supporting the movement if it's chuds throwing a tantrum that they're forced to pay their workers living wages, or can't dump pigshit into waterways or something.
It's over farm subsidies, economic protectionism, and diesel taxes for farmers that are being economically squeezed by the other two things. Those are all totally valid material concerns that I agree with. They're chuds because of the idiotification that comes from the separation of town and country that I'm opposed to as a Marxist agrarian, so I can't hold that against them like I would the Dutch farmers protesting immigration and methane reduction efforts.
also cheap Ukranian agri imports too, right?
but also, France proper always does this when it loses part of its colonial empire, so I think its also about the Sahel in a way
