Now that doesn't mean some of their motives are not right, but everybody is facing struggles in their daily lifes. We should take care of the people in difficult situations, but not people who want to sit around and do nothing and be paid for it.

They're a bunch of cowards who waited until a younger president was elected not even two years ago so they can take all of their anger towards him. They would have never had the guts to do it with Sarkozy or Hollande. And that's a weak move for that. Macron is not responsible for the previous presidents' mistakes.

Anyway, Macron is showing those rats that he's much stronger than that. He won't back down and that's a good thing.

About the pensions reform, basically it's saying that your pension won't be based on your best 25 years of your career anymore, but on your whole career instead.
So now people are rioting because pretty much they realize they can't sit around all day and work from time to time to get a decent pension. Get out of here! They are lazy and dumb (they can't even make right calculation based on the formula provided by the government, what a bunch of idiots)

Nice to get an actual French residents view rather than, 'I wish we were more like the French' and were more militant, in reality we wouldn't really want our city centres turned into battlegrounds every weekend
