It sounds like both sides suck. From what I've heard, the method used to push these reforms was dodgy as all hell - "It's better to ask forgiveness than permission" should not apply to legislation outside of extreme emergencies, and the impending collapse of the pension system isn't coming that quickly - but the Antifa types who are engaging in indiscriminate destruction should be shot. If Macron is acting like a tyrant, go after Macron, not the innocent civilians he disenfranchised.
