With all the bullshit going on in America, I wanted to spend some time on bullshit going on outside of America. To put it simply, France is on fire. Well, maybe not literally because we can still smell their stench, but figuratively it’s experiencing a BLM-flavored “Summer of Love” as we speak. Or at least as I type.
The source of all this fiery-yet-mostly-peaceful love? Well, that depends on who you ask. One side sees them as innocent young people protesting for educational reform. The other side sees them as being part of a larger group who want to sow discord globally.
And Fox News Digital? They see them as “Chaos, Inc.”
Chaos, Inc.
What the Left thinks it means – French students banding together for necessary reforms
What it really means – Antifa’s European Vacation
To really understand a Leftist organization, you have to understand it’s always layered. I break it down like this.
1. The True Believers. These are the people who are fully invested in the cause of the day. These are the ones who more often than not get featured by The PR Team to show their cause is righteous, attractive, and worth supporting. The downside? These people tend to fail on all three counts. See Trigglypuff, but not while you’re eating.
2. The Opportunists. These are the folks who decide to join in with the sole purpose of adding their cause to the main cause. They may or may not support the cause, but they’re happy to tag along to loot…I mean protest. The success or failure of the main movement is immaterial so long as their personal group gets to leech off the main group. Let me put it this way. The Opportunists give remora a run for their money when it comes to clinginess.
3. The PR Team. This group not only consists of media-savvy members of the cause, but also the media. You could have tens of tens of people gathering outside of a Tesla dealership, but The PR Team will spin it to sound like it was the next Million Man March but with more old white people.
4. The Power Brokers. Ah, the power behind the thrown Molotov Cocktails. These are the people who fund the protests and try to cover their tracks to varying degrees of success. Like our good friend Uncle George Soros, who is linked to a couple of organizations turning Paris from the City of Light to the City of Light This Shit on Fire.
As of the date of this missive, Fox News has identified 101 groups involved in Chaos, Inc., with intentions to have even more protests coming soon to an Earth near you. Yay, I guess?
Well, yeah, in a way. With these groups being identified and wanting to garner attention, it also exposes them to scrutiny so we can peel away the layers of this rotten onion.
First off, we have the students. Based on what Fox News uncovered, only about 1/3 of the affiliated groups are run by actual students. The rest, I can only assume, were held back. A lot.
Or, now hear me out here, the students are window dressing for the actual cause, which oddly enough seems to be heavily into breaking windows. And when you consider the breakdown of Leftist groups provided above, it makes sense because they are clearly the True Believers. These are the people the cause want you to identify with and their stories are compelling. As the mainstream media (a.k.a. The PR Team) want us to believe, the movement is students protesting current economic hardships and wanting better school conditions.
But they don’t make up the bulk of the movement itself, as noted above. So, who does? The Opportunists. Again, the media tell us a portion of the story and try to make The Opportunists sound like the minority.
Yeah, I trust that like I trust good food coming from Taco Bell.
The truth is the majority of the “student” protests are people who might be students of a European Learing Center, but I’m leaning more towards the movement being a majority of The Opportunists.
But surely that can’t be, right? It’s not like Antifa is linked to the Paris prote…oh, fuck, they are. And they’re not the only one. This “student” protest is full of left-wing organizations and labor unions (but I repeat myself), and with that many non-students involved, it’s hard to ignore.
Not that The PR Team won’t try to make you do just that. Media outlets from the New York Times to Al Jazeera to PBS are bending over backwards to spin a sympathetic narrative in the hopes you don’t do a couple of minutes of research on the subject. Listen and Believe indeed!
That leaves The Power Brokers, and we’ve already mentioned one of them, our friend Uncle George Soros. It’s also believed Turkey and Qatar may be funding it, as well as groups like Code PINK, Urgence Palestine, Amnesty France, and other reliably Leftist groups.
And, I swear I’m not joking, parents. Nothing says “totally serious movement” like needing your parents to float you a couple of bucks to protest. Hopefully those parents also bought the movement juice boxes and apples for when they’re done trying to topple France.
But if you thought Paris would be the Containment Zone for this bit of Leftist insanity, think again! The movement is promoting a student walkout on November 20th to show solidarity.
Idea for any teachers or professors with the guts: schedule a final or a major project due on November 20th right after the walkout begins. If you’re not there, you flunk. No make-up tests or extra credit assignments to make up for it. No pre-work. If the protests start at 12:00 PM, the test/project has to be done by 12:00:01.
Just a thought.
Which is a lot more thought than Chaos, Inc. has put into what happens if they succeed. When most of the people in the movement don’t give a fuck about education reform or high inflation, you’re not going to get education reform and lower inflation. You’re going to get whatever the majority want because they have the power to enforce it. Math doesn’t seem to be your strong suit.
Then again, if it was, they wouldn’t be socialists.
