    Okay, I suspect the CIA is in France stirring up the protests to funnel capital to the United States.

    My intention isn’t to dismiss the protests, but I’m worried that the initial anger won’t translate into concrete demands that lead to a real movement. At the moment, despite the red flags seen in the media, I am quite skeptical of the outcome of these protests.

    Furthermore, I believe a relatively easy way to identify those people is by the One Piece flag.

      I feel that it’s almost a certainty that the US and other imperialist states are infiltrating and trying to steer all of the protests to whatever ends are most advantageous to them, or the least harmful.

      It seems that the US state department is funding the electoral arm of the student movement in Serbia right now through several different organizations/NGOs. I happened to listen to a Madleton Pendleton video the other day where they went through the donor list of the student movement’s public facing org. While the information is coming from a youtuber and that means it’s not a certainty, I feel that it’s safe to assume the imperialists have their hands in as many pots as they can reach and student movements, with their lack of discipline and no ideological or party line, are easy to reach pots. We saw the color revolution in Nepal and how that ended.

      Of course I’m not disparaging the protesters in Albania, France or anywhere. Their struggles are righteous and born from serious and real hardships. I hope for nothing but the best for them, genuinely, but the ruling class doesn’t need to start the fight, they just care about how it ends and they have most of the pieces on the board.

      What about the one piece flag? I did see a few, but more importantly I saw many people with a luffy-style straw hat
