    Hi, I can't be certain of anything.
    What I said is purely speculation and my interpretation.

    The only facts here are :

    • Media has been promoting the movement since the beginning (it has stopped since last saturday, I think they want Christmas to go smoothly, there will be plenty of opportunites to start back after New year). Maybe the machine went crazy and off-track, off-planning, it's always hard with this kind of movement, it can quickly escape the control of people who originally engineered it.
    • People in the movement in their vast majority are exactly like the population in general (no political education, no interest and no knowledge of History, no grand ideals, not revolutionnary, etc.). They're as greedy as the government itself. They want more for themselves, if other people get more at the same time, that's "collateral damage". Not being critic of the movement here, but of the general mindset of the population.

    If I'm wrong, we have everything to gain from it (more social rights), so I will continue to support the movement (or should I say, the people that takes on their own time to fight in what they believe in) but I will always step back to think about what other people (especially the rulers) could gain from it.
    It I'm right, we have much to lose, as with the fall of the Nation, everything will fall with it, and especially the social security system that is, in fact, what makes France such an united and powerful nation.

        Thanks, you earned a follow that will stay (and someone that will read, might not interact every time, but we are all limited by time), even if you start posting only Level 5 shit, I'll learn to appreciate that too :D
        All this made me realize (and I thank @whatsup for that) I shouldn't have stopped blogging. I will soon begin to post again, even if it's for 20 cts rewards and unfollows :D Only problem is that I'm the developer of Share2Steem and I wouldn't want my application to suffer from what I might say.
        But I got my secret boot, the @emmanuel.macron account ! Might use that one instead :D
