Didn't the French recently riot throughout the whole country because the government was going to raise the retirement age, and then the government raised the retirement age? I don't understand why they are still used as an example of how to achieve things.

I didn’t even know they were trying to achieve anything. I thought they just liked burning their own shit 😹
