RE: User Stories On The YellowVest Protests in France - @algo.coder
It's very interesting to watch all this unfold... for me, it has a little bit of the feel of the "Occupy" movement here in the US; nobody entirely sure who was behind the evidently "leaderless" organization, yet the actual organization was far too smooth and well-connected to not have some serious resources behind it.
So perhaps what we're seeing here is yet another case of "Globalists vs. Nationalists" with the Yellow-vests merely being unwitting (albeit riled up) pawns in a much greater game. The notion of "The United States of Europe" was already being tossed around when I still lived over there... early 1980s, and before.
That's exactly the feeling I have. Too spontaneous to be true. And as everyone (medias, politicians) are always emphasizing the fact that the movement is "leaderless", "spontaneous", "citizen", this is suspect.
And yes, I think, like you said, it's a case of Globalists vs. Nationalists, with nationalists being used for the globalists' agenda unwittingly. But anyway, I think this will unfold soon and we will see what comes out of it. The results will speak for themselves.
And even if it starts organically. They will twist it into something they can use to pit people against each other.
But I did want to hear the story from real people who are there.
