The Yellow Vest is an item required of all French motorists by law and it became a symbol of a protest aimed at rising gasoline prices as the government of President Emmanuel Macron imposed new taxes and planned more as a "Green" policy.

2018, a few demonstrations might have had a point. In 2021, there is no point except anarchy for anarchy’s sake

Like Portland - they’ve gotten so used to wrecking the town for over a year, if there was a lockdown, they’d go insane enmasse. Dumpster fires are now a lifestyle and measure of ‘normal’ to them. Four walls for four weeks alone with their thoughts and they’d crack up.
