France Deploys Small Army to Ensure Communists Can Protest Capitalism Without Looting the Bakery
- Who
- Far-left protesters and French riot police
- What
- Nationwide demonstrations over living costs and education cuts turn violent; massive police presence contains looting
- When
- October 24, 2026
- Where
- Paris and cities across France
Far-left protesters marched across France on October 24, 2026, demanding action on rising living costs and opposing education funding cuts. Demonstrations in Paris and other cities turned violent, with clashes between protesters and police. Authorities deployed a massive police contingent that succeeded in preventing widespread looting. One demonstrator was photographed waving a communist flag during the Paris protest.
There is a particular choreography to French unrest: the state spends millions on overtime so that people waving the flag of a system that abolished private property can smash windows without actually redistributing the croissants. Our analysts note the police deployment was 'massive' — a word that in France means 'enough officers to form a human shield around every Monoprix.' The irony of communist-flag-wavers demanding government subsidies while the government deploys capitalist riot-control economics is not lost on us, mostly because it pays our subscription fees.
