I find it comical that more than one left-leaning commentator has tried to pin this on Trump.
It's Macron they hate. Nick Shirley interviewed a protestor who explained that Macron was extreme far right wing. I didn't realize that.

Macron is not even slightly right wing. To those commies anything short of Stalin is right wing.

He's the reason why any time the progressive protest machine gets spun up they magically come in from across the country, at the same time, with professional printed placards, banners, etc.
ETA: And magical pallets of bricks, food, water, etc. that suddenly appear at the right place and right time, and no one seems to know how.
I was watching something about the Iraq war a few weeks ago, and the doc showed footage of the people of Iraq "protesting" with a 30 foot high inflatable of Bush that could open it's mouth and wave its arms around.
I guess i was too young at the time, but watching the doc, I thought to myself, "Where did they get this thing?". These people are in a war zone and don't use toilet paper or have running water, yet they can drum up a $40,000 inflatable to protest? Pay attention to this kind of stuff. There is a ton of dark money running these "grass roots protest"

I don't buy that at all. The notion that Macron is too conservative is absolutely laughable.
There is an issue that I don't see being part of the discussion. The French, despite their "liberal" label are actually quite racist. Sure, they will let the North African Muslims in the country, but none of them will hire one. It's technically illegal, but they can't get a lease in certain neighborhoods. In Paris that's out in the 18th and 19th Arrondissments.
So while their lives are better than they might have been back in Algiers or Tunis, they are largely shut-out of French society. That breeds resentment and anger. I'm not justifying the violence, but simply stating that if the French aren't going to accept them on equal terms they should have never let them in the country.

Aside from the fact that he was a socialist before running as a centrist for President. In France you can be for social programs and government spending as well as social guarantees and still be considered right wing.
U.S. political labels do not translate to French.

Good place to start a big round up, but the reaction to all of the destruction will take time to set in.

Are these riots funded by shadow actors? How are they organized? This seems too large and widespread to be organic. It really just makes no sense to me
You are on the right track. Keep digging.

Large scale protests are never " organic" The Boston Tea Party was not "organic". The Civil Rights marches were coordinated. The anti war protests during Vietnam were not spontaneous. Tea Party protests around 2009 -10 were planned, even some BLM protests were planned.
In terms of the violence, look no further than Jean Luc Melenchon who leads the France Unbowed party.....not Singh am, not Soros, no Rothschild or any super rich guy that Q or Promethean is conjuring up. It's the political opposition. Melenchon is a nihilistic opportunist who likes to foment trouble.
Macron should either arrest him or ensure that the Securite make sure his car's brakes don't work and the ignition gets stuck on. No one should trust this guy, not the regular French socialists nor the centrist conservatives.

Same group thats was pissed around 1940 at Europe and have been discussing diversifying the countries since then. It's all out there ...no conspiracy.. and not evil .. less homogeneous countries are thought to be less inward and nationalistic according to the Left.

evil people rioting for fun

They basically imported millions of illiterate people (not unique to France) thinking they’d be fine driving for Uber Eats and taking welfare. A good lesson for the U.S.
