Next are the green boots Then the blue hats..
The whole apparel thing is so ambiguous, that I'm kinda worried lowlifes will attack people for wearing stuff symbolizing political movements they disagree with.
Yeah, no. The violence in the Yellow Vest movement comes mainly in response to horrific displays of violence by the police. There are "casseurs" and looters who will always be there to profit off a protest but the Yellow Vests aren't inherently violent. This just seems more like a pro-macronist counter movement rather than just a general opposition to the violence of the protests, especially when they're using phrases like "hands off my republic"
This is going to end well...
You can even see a EU flag in the article's photo, I doubt it's a politically neutral movement.
At this point anyone trying to defend the status quo is actively working against their own best interests. The women in the article's viedo goes on about how "we vote in this beautiful democracy" it's like so fucking what? We vote in another member of an elite class, largely through manufactured constent, and then that elite has no accountability as they placate the populace with petty cultural issues while dogmatically maintaining the status quo and pleasing the capitalists who own them. If the option we get offered is not an elite, then chances are the press and the politicians around them will rally to try and discredit and invalidate them as much as possible, making any work they try and do even harder. All of this so that markets can control our lives, create poverty and slowly destroy the world for profit. We totally accept that kind of violence, but breaking cameras or shoving police officers who are threatening you is just too far. Also, what's with the article? It reads like it was written by a computer with a passing understanding of grammar. Are they so scared of being called bias that their article is just a string of plainly stated facts. It tells me almost nothing.
Yeah no, don't be fooled by the excuse that they only protest against violence caused by yellow vest vandals. They protest against the yellow vests in general. I came across them yesterday. From what I've seen, the average age of the protesters would be around 62, and some of them had really retarded signs such as "gilets jaunes au boulot" (yellow vests, get to work) and "moins de fonctionnaires, plus de milliardaires" (less civil workers, more billionaires) I guess their primary concern isn't violence but the return of the wealth tax, which is one of the main demands of the yellow vests.
Well, at least with such a stupid platform we shouldn't have to worry about this movement gaining as much traction as the gilets jaunes.
Followed by the brown pants.
Is Maxofs2d in this one
In Canada Yellow Vests are all about expelling muslims, abolishing tax, and "defending the country from Sharia law". They're belligerent, racist, and ignorant. They're the kinds of people that wear MAGA hats despite living in Canada.
That's because "Yellow Vests" aren't a thing. The Gilets Jaunes are a French movement, with many demands that are specific to the situation in France. Some dumbasses copying the movement's getup because of its success to further their own agenda doesn't mean they're part of it.
I'm just adding to the discussion what it's like in my country, I know Canadian yellow vest movement is a bastardization.
And then the blackshirts?
We'll get back to you on that if this clusterfuck spreads to Italy.
