France-s ‘high school- protests aren-t what you think

The ‘spontaneous’ student uprising has been adopted suspiciously quickly by left-wing politicians to push their own pet causes
The spoiled French brats are back at it again. This time burning down their own schools, at least one of which was brand new. About the only thing these kids are good for is giving taxpayers an effective visual of where their tax dollars have been going: .
French teenagers nationwide have been staging a full-scale insurrection over government budget-slashing, flipping out alongside public servants demanding more money, with banners screaming, Less police, more money – apparently ignoring the fact that the cops are also public servants – while barricading gates, burning garbage bins, and hurling hydrochloric acid at the cops. .Unfortunately for the broke French state, it hasn’t yet found a way to have Russia pay for it by stealing the cash interest from frozen Russian assets held in the West. Only the poor defense contractors standing on the street corner with an eye-patch and shaking a tin cup get to benefit from that. Nothing to do with the fact that it’s an investment that boosts GDP on a euro-for-euro basis, of course.
So how does France punish these little hooligans? By making them attend classes online from the comfort of home, with the fridge just a few feet away. All while mom and dad are probably at work. That’ll sure show them. What kid wouldn’t totally hate that and be compelled to correct their behavior?
Almost 2,000 arrests (and counting) have been made since Monday, according to French authorities. We’re told that the little dears/loves (as their French parents constantly call them) have some legitimate complaints. Alright, I’ll bite. Let’s sit down for a second and listen to what the little angels are upset about. If only because I’ve never met a French parent whose kid was behaving like a little hoodlum in public who didn’t loudly insist that every adult around indulge them while they exercise their right to express themselves.
First, they say that they don’t like long school days that stretch from 8 AM to 6 PM, with a two-hour lunch. Boy, do I have bad news for you when it comes to what awaits you in the real world. Apparently, it isn’t enough that they also get two weeks of vacation every six weeks throughout the entire school year, plus the two-month summer break to enjoy taxpayer-subsidized vacations. Or that they spend much of their school day already being bussed around to various activities.
They say that their schools aren’t up to snuff. And sometimes there isn’t even toilet paper in the stalls, they cry. Does the state have to wipe your behinds, too?
They say that there’s a shortage of teachers, resulting in bigger classes. And that many of the ones who are still hanging in there end up nonetheless disappearing on leave for days on end. Gee, I can’t possibly imagine why.
They also complain of poor facilities. Like not enough air conditioning. That’s less of a problem than a deliberate ideological choice championed by the same comrades with whom these kids are on the far left in order to make it look like the leftists’ annual September freakout is actually effective this year.
Take that one up with them. They’re the ones who want you to sweat it out for the planet and get angry when any money is spent on air cooling. At least until you die from heat exhaustion and can then finally enjoy some industrial-grade post-mortem cold storage whose carbon footprint you’ll be offsetting by not breathing carbon dioxide into the air.
This spontaneous movement was born out of exasperation with educational conditions that are absolutely unworthy, said far-left politician and coordinator Manuel Bompard. Yeah, spontaneous. Just something cooked up by a few kids between swigs of Red Bull and not at all by a professional activist movement that has its annua
