::Ok thanks. I'll put it in some context about the movement's growth and leadership or lack thereof. We'll be getting news any minute about Macron's speech to the nation, and see what lines he draws and the reaction to it.

:::Here's Macron's statements: [https://www.foxnews.com/world/macron-to-address-france-after-latest-riots-in-paris-result-in-nearly-1000-arrests][https://www.reuters.com/article/us-france-protests/macron-to-speed-up-tax-cuts-raise-wages-at-historic-time-for-france-idUSKBN1O929Y][https://thehill.com/policy/international/420619-macron-raising-minimum-wage-after-weeks-of-protests] --[[User:1990'sguy|1990'sguy]] ([[User talk:1990'sguy|talk]]) 15:53, 10 December 2018 (EST)

So the discrepancy between "working class" and "professional revolutionaries" has to sort itself out. Here, the successful Marxist elites have used [[climate change]] to promote their revolution; now the lower level Marxists, people of [[Ocasio-Cortez]] age, are faced with the reality of a choice - casting their lot with the oppressed lowlife working class, or cling to the values of Marxist elites. [[Science]] is at the core of the dispute. And everyone in France knows the mob always wins.
