It's getting repetitive saying this every time someone somewhere resists something, but this is how you do it, Americans.

As a French, this is actually not. Macron doesn't care how many millions take to the streets. Last time we were 2 millions and the polls said 90% were against macron and he didn't flinch. Now what we need is a big, general strike. It's the only thing still legal that would make him change his policies
