Hundreds of masked and hooded anarchists smashed shop windows, torched cars and hurled cobblestones at riot police on Tuesday, hijacking a May Day rally by labour unions against President Emmanuel Macron’s economic reforms.


quote:

Chanting anti-fascist slogans and waving Soviet flags and anti-government banners, the protesters smashed windows of businesses, including a Renault garage and McDonalds restaurant near the Austerlitz train station in eastern Paris.

There are plenty of folks in France who would protest if Jesus returned.

These people are never actually rioting against anything of substance. They just make shite up then get pissed at the shite they made up in their heads.

People waving Soviet flags aren't presumed to be communists?

This logic isn't used on this board when talking about the Confederate flag and racists.

The article said that they’re “far left” protestors waving the flag of a defunct communist state.
