Are French protesters more effective? Meet the ‘next level’ climate activists

How about you stop acting like terrorists

Protests are never effective

Get those buffoons to Poland so i have an excuse not to go to school, hahahah!

YOU PEOPLE ARE A LITTLE BIT TO LATE. TALK ABOUT NOT TAKING HINT.

Liberals with 5 jackets on

I just see a bunch of bored white rich people…

Weve been doing this since the French Revolution.

I dunno his surname what do you expect?

I love the French 🇫🇷 🇫🇷 🇫🇷

Get the liquid manure truck from the farmer and then unleash the fire…

car companies do whatever they want

It doesn't take much to break down a non stabilized cinderblock wall, minus rebar a car bumper can knock one down.

I hope they lose

My respect to the French… this is how you protest

Protests should be strategic not symbolic. Yes At the same, people do need to remember that protests are not actually a way of getting stuff done. They are a way of pressuring people in positions of power to do so. That means that protesters aren't the ones who have to make difficult decisions or compromises. The goal is to make democracy work better, not to halt the democratic process.

France has had confrontational protest tatics since forever, i guessing the many revolutions is the biggest factor.

By the way, this protest was just about protecting nature and preventing a road to be built.
Imagine what happens when it's about the french's salary

People wont hear what your saying when your making peoples life difficult to get home or to work.
The people you need to reach is the people that make this stuff but your not.

The french dont protest, they revolt

We’re so behind the curve here it’s soul destroying.

In France the revolutionary working class disrupt, associate and fight the state & corporate entities with a resolute, relentless defiance.

Whereas here, small numbers of professional activists put their necks on the line and or consent to “police approved” protests.

If we don’t fight back in our millions now, we’re all going to be finished

Looks like colossal waste of energy for a measure that is designed to save the pension plan. Appears that this issue is touch paper for every grievance built up over years. Destroying private and public property including expensive agricultural equipment isn't justifiable. Crush the farmer in the name of social justice. Really?

Wow, the zombie of Vice Media bit the Guardian's environmental reporting and we're all dumber for it

France is hardcore!!!! 😈

"Revolution toppled thode people and replaced by the same type of people"

They are certainly more effective at getting attention and creating an active, lively demonstration atmosphere.

About the actual results, lets see. The French government is not the most progressive when it comes to carbon reduction, electrification, etc.

Is the description even trying to be objective, though? "Why French people are simply better at protesting than the English"? Marine Le Pen could not have written a more French nationalist slogan, and this is supposed to be objective journalism. But then, it is definitely true that the French are simply better journalists than the British: le Monde certainly would have written a more objective video description.

It's funny that people recognize that all the non-violent climate activism up until this point has not stopped climate change, without also noticing that all the violent climate activism up until this point has also failed to stop climate change.

J'adore les gros plans sur l'accordéon et les baguettes ! 😂

I don't think building a wall to block a road is an effective strategy, due to the sheer fact that it'll just make cars spend more times on the road

And what has the French protests accomplished in the past 20 years? NOTHING. Even in places where the government has backed down due to protests a couple of years later they simply do it anyway. Look at pensions in France. It used to be that people retired at almost 100% pay after 30 years. Now it's 42, sorry 44, years of work to and another 5 year to get a full pension that is only 50% pay. So some 25 year old in Paris now has to look at working until they are 74 and still have to work because the pension will not pay for his living expenses.

A couple of thousand people is a protest over five million is a revolution. The english government paniked at the last french revolution, are they worried now? When they are working on behalf of an unelected organizasion..

We just have a few more centuries of practice.

See the cop city articles from the intercept and tell me the French are more effective. I’d say it’s at least a pretty even tie. 😂

Cmon UK it's time for a civil revolution

People reaaaally need to understand that a non-disruptive protest will NEVER bare any fruits. Not even in dreams. Changes happen after confrontation. As long as you keep it non-distruptive, with these children chants as if you were in elementary school, you'll be treated like rain on a coat. Just need to wait and hop, it clears by itself.
Stop being afraid. The fight is miles greater than you little persona.

An activist posing as a journalist, pretending to ask questions in order to guilt-shame his readers into more activism…how novel. Reminds me of 1930's leftists traveling to Russia to ask "Why is Russia so much more productive than the West?", or 1990's leftists going to China to ask "Why is China so much more productive than the West?"… 😂😂😂

The struggle against the climate catastrophe is a pass/fail situation. We can’t afford to do “ok”, we need to win. Otherwise tipping points and feedback loops will wreck the planet and there will be no turning back. All those who are not on the side of radical action are not on the side of science. Simple as that
