Is French Democracy Dead Or Alive? - The Gilets Jaunes In
2019
Sat, 01/12/2019 - 08:10
Authored by Diana Johnstone via The Unz Review,
French Democracy Dead or Alive? Or perhaps one should say,
buried or revived?
Because for the mass of ordinary people, far from the
political, financial, media centers of power in Paris, democracy is already
moribund, and their movement is an effort to save it. Ever since Margaret
Thatcher decreed that “there is no alternative”, Western economic policy is made
by technocrats for the benefit of financial markets, claiming that such benefits
will trickle down to the populace. The trickle has largely dried up, and people
are tired of having their needs and wishes totally ignored by an elite who “know
best”.
President Emmanuel Macron’s New Year’s Eve address to the
nation made it perfectly clear that after one unconvincing stab at throwing a
few crumbs to the Gilets Jaunes
(Yellow Vests) protest movement, he has determined to get
tough
France is entering a period of turmoil. The situation is very
complex, but here are a few points to help grasp what this is all about.
The METHODS
The Yellow Vests gather in conspicuous places where they can
be seen: the Champs-Elysées in Paris, main squares in other cities towns, and
the numerous traffic circles on the edge of small towns. Unlike traditional
demonstrations, the Paris marches were very loose and spontaneous, people just
walking around and talking to each other, with no leaders and no speeches.
The absence of leaders is inherent in the movement. All
politicians, even friendly ones, are mistrusted and no one is looking for a new
leader.
People are organizing their own meetings to develop their
lists of grievances and demands.
In the village of Commercy, Lorraine, a half hour drive from
Domrémy where Jeanne d’Arc was born, inhabitants gather to read their
proclamation. Six of them read in turns, a paragraph each, making it quite clear
that they want no leaders, no special spokesperson. They sometimes stumble over
a word, they are not used to speaking in public like the TV talking heads. Their
“Second appeal of the Gilets Jaunes de Commercy invites others to come to
Commercy on January 26-27 for an “assembly of assemblies”.
The DEMANDS
The people who first went out in the streets wearing Yellow
Vests last November 17 were ostensibly protesting against a hike in gasoline and
diesel taxes that would hit people in rural France the hardest. Obsessed with
favoring “world cities”, the French government has taken one measure after
another at the expense of small towns and villages and the people who live
there. That was just the last straw. The movement rapidly moved on to the basic
issue: the right of the people to have a say in measures taken that affect their
lives. Democracy, in a word.
For decades, parties of the left and of the right, whatever
their campaign speeches, once in office pursue policies dictated by “the
markets”. For this reason, people have lost confidence in all parties and all
politicians and are demanding new ways to get their wishes heard.
The fuel tax was soon forgotten as the list of demands grew
longer. Critics of the movement note that achieving so many demands is quite
impossible. It’s no use paying attention to popular demands, because the silly
people ask for everything and its opposite.
That objection is answered by what has quickly emerged as the
single overriding demand of the movement: the Citizens’ Initiative
Referendum
(CIR).
The REFERENDUM
This demand illustrates the good sense of the movement.
Rather than making a “must” list, the GJ merely ask that the people be allowed
to choose, and the referendum is the way to choose. The demand is for a certain
number of signatories – perhaps 700,000, perhaps more – to gain the right to
call a referendum on an issue of their choice. The right to a CIR exists in
Switzerland, Italy and California. The idea horrifies all those whose profession
it is to know best. If the people vote, they will vote for all sorts of absurd
things, the better-knowers observe with a shudder.
A modest teacher in a junior college in Marseilles, Etienne
Chouard, has been developing for decades ideas on how to organize direct
democracy, with the referendum at its center. His hour has come with the Yellow
Vests. He insists that a referendum must always be held after a long debate and
time for reflection, to avoid emotional spur-of-the-moment decisions. Such a
referendum requires honest, independent media which are not all owned by special
interests. It requires making sure that politicians who make the laws follow the
popular will expressed in the referendum. All this suggests the need for a
people’s constitutional convention.
The referendum is a bitter point in France, a powerful silent
underlying cause of the whole Gilets Jaunes movement. In 2005, President
Chirac
(unwisely from his point of view) called for a popular
referendum on ratification of the proposed Constitution of the European Union,
certain it would be approved. The political class, with a few exceptions, went
into full rhetoric, claiming a prosperous future as a new world power under the
new Constitution and warning that otherwise Europe might be plunged back into
World Wars I and II. However, ordinary citizens organized an extraordinary
movement of popular self-education, as groups met to pour through the daunting
legalistic documents, elucidating what they meant and what they implied. On May
29, 2005, with a turnout of 68%, the French voted 55% to reject the
Constitution. Only Paris voted heavily in favor.
Three years later, the National Assembly – that is,
politicians off all parties – voted to adopt virtually the same text, which in
2009 became the Treaty of Lisbon.
That blow to the clearly expressed popular will produced such
disillusion that many backed helplessly away from politics. Now they are coming
back.
The VIOLENCE
From the start, the government has reacted with violence, in
an apparent desire to provoke responding violence in order to condemn the
movement as violent.
An army of police,
dressed like robots, have surrounded and blocked groups of peaceful Yellow
Vests, drowning them in clouds of teargas and firing flash balls directly at
protesters, seriously wounding hundreds
(no official figures). A number of people have lost an eye or
a hand. The government has nothing to say about this.
On the third Saturday of protest, this army of police was
unable to stop – or under orders to allow – a large number of hoodlums or Black
Blocs
(who knows?) to infiltrate the movement and smash property,
vandalize shops, set fire to trash cans and parked cars, providing the world
media with images proving that the Yellow Vests are dangerously violent.
Despite all this provocation, the Gilets Jaunes have remained
remarkably calm and determined. But there are bound to be a few people who lose
their tempers and try to fight back.
The BOXER
On the 8th Saturday, January 5, a squad of
plexiglass-protected police were
violently attacking Gilets Jaunes on a bridge over the Seine when a big guy
lost his temper, emerged from the crowd and went on the attack. With his fists, he beat down one policeman
and caused the others to retreat. This amazing scene was filmed. You could
see Yellow Vests trying to hold him back, but Rambo was unstoppable.
It turned out that this was Christophe Dettinger, a French
Rom, former light heavyweight boxing
champion of France. His nickname is “the Gypsy of Massy”. He got away from
the scene, but made a video before turning himself in. “I reacted badly”, he
said, when he saw police attacking women and other defenseless people. He urged
the movement to go ahead peacefully.
Dettinger faces seven years in prison. Within a day, his defense fund had gathered 116,433
euros. The government shut it down – on what legal pretext I don’t know. Now
a petition circulates on his behalf.
The SLANDER
In his New Year’s Eve address, Macron patronizingly scolded
his people telling them that “you can’t work less and earn more” – as if they
all aspired to spending their lives lounging on a yacht and watching stock
prices rise and fall.
Then he issued his declaration of war:
“These days I have seen unthinkable things and heard the
unacceptable.” Apparently alluding to the few opposition politicians who dare
sympathize with the protesters, he chastised those who pretend to “speak for the
people”, but are only the “spokesmen for a hateful mob going after elected
representatives, police, journalists, Jews, foreigners and homosexuals. It is
simply the negation of France.”
The Gilets Jaunes haven’t been “going after” anybody. The
police have been “going after” them. People have indeed spoken up vigorously
against camera crews of channels that systematically distort the movement.
Not a word has been heard from the movement against
foreigners or homosexuals.
The key word is
Jews.
Qui veut noyer son chien l’accuse de la rage.
(French proverb).
As the French saying goes, whoever wants to drown his dog
claims he has rabies. Today whoever wants to ruin a career, take vengeance on a
rival, disgrace an individual or destroy a movement accuses her, him, or it of
antisemitism.
So, faced with a
rising democratic movement, playing the “antisemitism” card was inevitable.
It was almost a sure thing statistically. In almost any random batch of hundreds
of thousands of people, you might find one or two who have something negative to
say about a Jew. That’ll do it. The media hawks are on the outlook. The
slightest incident can be used to suggest that the real motive of the movement
is to revive the Holocaust.
This gently ironic little song, performed on one of France’s
traffic circles, contrasts the “nice” establishment with the “bad” ordinary
folk. It is a huge hit on YouTube. It gives the tone of the movement. Les
Gentils et les Méchants.
It didn’t take long for this merry number to be accused of
antisemitism. Why? Because it was ironically dedicated to two of the very most virulent critics of
the Gilets Jaunes: May ’68 star Daniel Cohn-Bendit and old “new philosopher” Bernard-Henri Lévy. The new generation
can’t stand them. But wait, they happen to be Jewish. Aha! Anti-Semitism!
The REPRESSION
Faced with what government spokesman Benjamin Griveaux
described as “agitators” and “insurrectionists” who want to “overthrow the
government”, Prime Minister Edouard Philippe announced a new “law to better
protect the right to demonstrate”. Its main measure: heavily punish organizers
of a demonstration whose time and place have not had official approval.
In fact, the police had already arrested 33-year-old truck
driver Eric Drouet for organizing a small candle ceremony in honor of the
movement’s casualties. There have been many other arrests, with no information
coming out about them.
(Incidentally, over the holidays, hoodlums in the banlieues
of several cities carried out their ritual burning of parked cars, with no
particular publicity or crackdown. Those were cars of working class people who
need them to go to work, not the precious cars in the rich section of Paris
whose destruction caused such scandal.)
On January 7, Luc Ferry, a “philosopher” and former Minister
of Youth, Education and Research, gave a radio interview on the very respectable
Radio Classique in which he declared: “The police are not given the means to end
this violence. It’s unbearable. Listen, frankly, when you see guys kick a poor
policemen when he’s down, that’s enough! Let them use their arms once and for
all, basta! […] As I recall, we have the world’s fourth army, capable of putting
an end to this garbage.”
Ferry called on Macron to make a coalition with the
Republicans in order to push through his “reforms”.
Last month, in a column against the Citizens’ Initiative
Referendum, Ferry wrote that “the current disparaging of experts and criticism
of elitism is the worst calamity of our times.”
The ANTIFA
Wherever people gather, Antifa groups may pursue their
indiscriminate search to root out “fascists”. In Bordeaux last Saturday, Yellow Vests had to fight off an attack by
Antifa.
It is now completely clear
(as indeed it always has been) that the self-styled
“Antifascists” are the watch dogs of the status quo. In their tireless search
for “fascists”, the Antifa attack anything that moves. In effect, they protect
stagnation. And curiously enough, Antifa violence is tolerated by the same State
and the same police who insult, attack and arrest more peaceful demonstrators.
In short, the Antifa are the storm troopers of the current system.
The MEDIA
Be skeptical. At least in France, mainstream media are
solidly on the side of “order”, meaning Macron, and foreign media tend to echo
what national media write and say. Also, as a general rule, when it comes to
France, the Anglophone media often get it wrong.
The END It is not in sight. This may not be a revolution, but
it is a revelation of the real nature of “the system”. Power lies with a
technocracy in the service of “the Markets”, meaning the power of finance
capital. This technocracy aspires to remake human society, our own societies and
those all over the planet, in the interests of a certain capitalism. It uses
economic sanctions, overwhelming propaganda and military force
(NATO) in a “globalization” project that shapes people’s
lives without their consent. Macron is the very embodiment of this system. He
was chosen by that famous elite to carry through the measures dictated by “the
Markets”, enforced by the European Union. He cannot give in. But now that people
are awake to what is going on, they won’t stop either. For all the lamented
decline in the school system, the French people today are as well-educated and
reasonable as any population can be expected to be. If they are incapable of
democracy, then democracy is impossible.
(2) Police use water
cannon & tear gas against Yellow Vests - Paris & regions
JANUARY 13, 2019 / 1:02 AM
Renewed yellow vest protests hit with police water cannon,
tear gas in Paris
PARIS
(Reuters) - Paris police fired water cannon and tear gas to
repel “yellow vest” demonstrators from around the Arc de Triomphe monument on
Saturday in the ninth straight weekend of protests against French President
Emmanuel Macron’s economic reforms.
Thousands of protesters also marched noisily but peacefully
through the Grands Boulevards shopping area in northern Paris close to where a
major gas explosion in a bakery killed two firefighters and injured nearly 50
people early on Saturday.
Central Paris was in lockdown against another feared eruption
of violence by radical elements in the “gilets jaunes” (yellow vest) movement,
with bridges across the Seine river closed and official buildings such as
parliament and the Elysee presidential palace protected by police barriers.
Groups of protesters also gathered on and around Paris’s
famous Champs Elysees boulevard, the scene of disturbances in recent weeks, many
of them calling loudly for Macron to resign.
“Macron, we are going to tear down your place!” one banner
read.
Around the 19th-century Arc de Triomphe at the top of the
Champs Elysee, riot police unleashed water cannon and tear gas at militant
yellow-vest protesters after being pelted with stones and paint, witnesses
said.
By mid-afternoon there had been no major clashes with police
unlike in previous weeks. In Paris over 50 people were arrested, some for
carrying objects that could be used as weapons.
There were also thousands of marchers in the cities of
Bordeaux and Toulon in southern France as well as Strasbourg in the east and the
central city of Bourges.
Bourges authorities said nearly 5,000 yellow vests stuck to
the designated demonstration area but another 500 had pushed into the city
center that was off-limits for demonstrators.
Many businesses in Bourges had boarded themselves up to avoid
damage from protesters and authorities had removed street furniture and building
site materials that could be used for barricades.
In Strasbourg, up to 2,000 demonstrators gathered in front of
the European Parliament building and later marched to the center of the city on
the Rhine river border with Germany. Protesters set garbage bins ablaze and
police fired a few tear gas grenades, but no serious violence or looting was
reported.
More than 80,000 police were on duty for the protests
nationwide, including 5,000 in Paris.
The “yellow vests” take their name from the high-visibility
jackets they wear at road barricades and on the street. Their rage stems from a
squeeze on household incomes and a belief that Macron, a former investment
banker regarded as close to big business, is indifferent to their hardships.
Macron, often criticized for a monarchical manner, is to
launch a national debate on Jan. 15 to try to mollify the yellow vest
protesters, whose unrest has shaken his administration.
The debate, to be held on the internet and in town halls,
will focus on four themes - taxes, green energy, institutional reform and
citizenship. But aides to Macron have said changing the course of Macron’s
reforms aimed at liberalizing the economy will be off limits.

(5) USA: Antifa have
taken over the streets of Portland; Seattle next
Dori: City leaders must act before Antifa turns Seattle into
Portland
BY DORI MONSON
DECEMBER 3, 2018 AT 3:21 PM
This story has been largely ignored by the mainstream media
in town, but it could very well be one of the more shocking stories of the
weekend. On Saturday afternoon, Antifa had a protest, not in Portland as usual,
but here at home, downtown Seattle. A mob of about 150 people were blocking
sidewalks downtown in protest of Trump and his immigration policies.
We’ve seen what has happened in Portland, where things have
gotten violent, and sometimes dangerous. Antifa has taken over the streets of
Portland because the police and mayor have shown incredible weakness in
protecting the citizens. You may recall the audio we played a few weeks ago
where Antifa blocked the streets; one driver drove down a blocked streets
anyway, an Antifa member jumped on his car, and then Antifa mobsters chased the
driver down the street, smashing the car with their weapons.
They have taken over Portland. And we are dangerously close
to them attempting to do the same thing here in Seattle.
The group that was behind the march is a Seattle socialist
group that is also hosting an upcoming open borders rally. They want all illegal
immigrants to be able to come into this country unimpeded.
Here are some of the things that Antifa was yelling on
Saturday:
“Say it loud, say it clear, refugees are welcome here.”
“All day, all night, shut down the alt-right.”
“Racist, sexist, anti-gay; far-right bigots go away.”
“Nazis go home, Nazis go home.”
There is one guy named Andy Ngo who is based in Portland and has
chronicled the rise of Antifa there. Andy Ngo has a YouTube channel and will
go downtown and record the Antifa mobs, to capture the violent rhetoric that
they use.
At one point in Seattle on Saturday, Antifa had blocked off a
sidewalk. Several of the Antifa people were armed with semi-automatic weapons
like AR-15s. They were standing there like a militia. Is that illegal? No. But
impeding other people’s ability to walk down the sidewalk is illegal.
Andy asked these masked Antifa guys if he could walk down the
sidewalk, and they told him no. One Antifa guy came up to him and observed that
Andy is of Asian descent. He told Andy that he should not be helping out the
“enemy” that has oppressed his own ancestors, and warned him that he could die
if he keeps recording Antifa at rallies.
Some of us didn’t really come to talk, some of us really come
[sic] to die, dude. Are you willing to die for your YouTube [expletive]? Because
that’s what’s gonna come, that’s what’s coming to you, dude … And you spying and
doing this punk [expletive] is gonna get you … hurt.
All of the violence, all of the words that were so hateful,
were coming from the Antifa people. One woman came up to Andy and screamed with
a bullhorn into his ear, which he said caused him physical pain. And yet, here
is what a Seattle police officer told Andy.
You are inciting conflict and we’re going to take some action
to remove you from the area … If you want to protest, you have the absolute
right to exercise your First Amendment rights. You have a right to be where you
want to be, to a certain extent.
Again, every member of Antifa has a phone that they are using
to record Andy. But a cop is telling Andy that he is inciting conflict, just by
his presence. The cop tells him that if he wants to protest, he has a right. So
if he wants to scream and protest and block sidewalks, he has a right, but if he
wants to chronicle what Antifa is saying, he has no rights. He only has the
right to be where he wants to be to “a certain extent.” I didn’t realize that we
only had the right to be in public areas to “a certain extent.”
Andy wasn’t being violent. He was being a citizen journalist.
He is protected by the First Amendment. And I didn’t see any local TV stations
covering what happened Saturday afternoon downtown Seattle. So the only person
covering this and providing the information to the public was this citizen
journalist.
RELATED: When will Antifa notice they are the real
fascists?
We talked off-air with the Seattle police, who said that they
didn’t want to give Antifa more attention than they deserve, and were happy with
how the police handled it. I respect that that is their position. But, I want to
make sure that we know that the cops are telling the person who is just
chronicling what the mob is doing that he doesn’t have a right to be there.
I support the right of Antifa or anybody else to protest in
public spaces. But they can’t block public sidewalks, and they can’t tell
citizens that they, Antifa, have taken control of the streets. And the cops were
essentially protecting Antifa and telling a First Amendment-protected citizen
journalist that he only had the right to be where he wanted to “a certain
extent,” and was inciting violence by virtue of his presence.
We’re getting to scary times here. When you allow a mob to
think they own the streets, it becomes a problem that is only going to escalate.
And all of this was on a Saturday in December, when a lot of families are
downtown Christmas shopping and doing festive activities.
I cannot understand how we have allowed things to descend to
the depth that they are at right now. But once again, it is a lack of leadership
from the city council and the mayor. We are in danger of losing control of this
city. The drug addicts have escalated crime to a shocking level. Antifa sees
that this area is ripe for the picking, just as Portland has been. And at some
point, sometime, when they’re blocking a street, somebody is going to get so
upset that there could be some real mayhem.
(6) USA: Why Have
Seattle’s Police Become Enforcers For The Antifa?

If you aren’t familiar with his work, independent journalist
Andy Ngo has made something of a career out of chronicling the outright
douchebaggery of the antifa movement and the coziness of the Portland and
Seattle governments with that movement. His efforts have discomfited the antifa
and irritated politicians. And, along the way, it has given all of us a view of
what happens when a governmental entity stops trying to enforce laws equally and
decides that supporting a violent and extreme political faction is the way to
gain popularity.
Yesterday, a group called the Three Percenters had a permit for a rally
in Seattle. They were met by the
antifa who didn’t bother to obtain a permit, though the police don’t really
seem to care.

Rally TTAG screen capture from Andy Ngo Twitter video clip.
On Saturday, a group of Americans held a pro-Constitution,
pro-America rally in Seattle. In a surprise to no one, a number of Seattle’s
Antifa leftists turned out in force to attempt to intimidate the patriots
present for the rally. And the black-clad Antifa thugs brought open-carried
firearms, including AR-15s to the event.
A Portland-based video journalist Andy Ngo covered the rally
and the counter-demonstrators. For him, things grew heated pretty quickly. As Ngo tried to cover the event, a number of
Antifa folks unlawfully stopped him from approaching on the sidewalk and blocked
his camera. Then a pair of openly armed Antifa members made it clear that Mr.
Ngo would not pass.

Just as in Portland, the Seattle police stood by and did next
to nothing to protect the law-abiding from the Antifa members’ intimidation.
Eventually, the police demanded Mr. Ngo leave or face arrest, claiming that his
presence served to “incite conflict.”

A woman screamed into a bullhorn in front of my face. I was
pressed up against a barrier. She led the mob into called me a “Nazi.” It was so
loud that I felt physical pain in my ear drums.
Embedded video
Time and again, these black-clad and often-masked Antifa
agitators claim to stand against fascism. The “anti-fascists” as they like
to call themselves hate President Trump with a passion and call anyone who
disagrees with them Nazis, neo-Nazis and white supremacists. Quite ironic that
Mr. Ngo lives his life as an openly gay Asian male.
As we’ve seen time and time again, these “anti-fascists” do
more than name-calling. They openly use classic fascist tactics themselves –
specifically the threat of violence to suppress opposing viewpoints – against
those who disagree with them.
What’s more, Antifa threats have frequently proven to be more
than just talk. In fact, Antifa’s
violence has very frequently left their fellow Americans battered and
bloody.
Antifa uses more than fists to attack freedom-loving
Americans, too. Take Berkeley professor
Eric Clanton, who used a bike lock to beat his opponents. So much for free
and open academic discourse.

made ominous threats towards Mr. Ngo:
