The Left Built This Fire in France and Now It’s Out of Control

“If you still think the chaos in France is ‘just student protests,’ you’re not watching a movement—you’re watching a warning.”

What began as frustration over education has exploded into a nationwide firestorm: city halls torched, Jewish institutions vandalized, 3,000+ businesses damaged, masked mobs waving communist banners and massive Palestinian flags, and coordinated riots spreading across dozens of cities. This isn’t youthful activism—it’s a full‑scale hijacking by anarchists and hard‑left extremists who see France as the first domino in a global campaign. Calls for a “worldwide intifada” are now openly circulating, and the same ideological networks fueling France’s collapse are already embedded across Europe, Canada, and the United States. Leaders who insisted “immigration is strength” and “values are universal” now face a reality they created: a movement that burns landmarks, destabilizes governments, and targets Western society itself. With Marine Le Pen surging ahead of France’s 2027 election and unrest spreading faster than officials can contain it, the question isn’t whether this will reach North America—it’s whether voters will stop it before it does.

Why Macron Left During Riots

SPEAKER_00 0:02

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Here we go again, ladies and gentlemen. They said it was with the Rat Network. I'm here alone. Stuart's away for the next day, and he'll be back on Friday. But you know who's also gone? Emmanuel Macron. The country's on fire. And he took off. I mean, he had previous meetings in the Gulf. He couldn't miss it. Well, his country's on fire. Ladies and gentlemen, France continues to be that beacon of socialism, that beacon of craziness, that beacon of what is ahead of us in the West. It's amazing. Since Monday, you cannot imagine the reactions people have had, the reactions people have had to what's going on in France. It's got so little to do with a reality and more with once again pushing a political agenda, regardless of the consequences. That's the reality. That's what we're dealing with today. And today, here on the Rent Network, I'm going to focus in on

The Protest Story And The Welfare State

SPEAKER_00 1:10

just how people have been reacting to what you're seeing in France. So in France, in case you have missed it, it's been riots, unbelievable riots over the weekend. What claimed to be started off as a student protest. And yeah, the students had a beef.

Education was sucky, you know, teach lack of teachers, lack of system. Now, let's put this into perspective, ladies and gentlemen. This is a very, very highly social program-driven country that the government pays for everything. Universities are free, things are free, and people expect with all their taxes to get more than just nothing.

And they're their beef makes sense. And that's why we know when I here in the US we should give free health care. Free costs money. Free is expensive.

And when you run out of money and you let the government run it, government isn't in the business of running businesses. They're in the business of screwing you. They're in the business of, you know, being politicians. They're not business experts, most of them.

And they let the bureaucrats, who are even more incompetent and more politically driven, run institutions and the institutions fall apart. Now I haven't gone off the rails here, people, in a different direction. It's an important point. See, France, whenever you come to France, if you would live in France, the government takes care of you.

That's what socialism is. The government is going to give you money. It doesn't encourage productivity. It doesn't encourage employment.

It encourages you to stay home. It encourages you to depend on the government so the government can get re-elected. That's what's happened in France. Migrants coming in by the millions from around the world.

And it really doesn't matter. They didn't vet who came in the door. They just sat there with their hands out and said, pay me to stay home. Pay me not to work.

That's exactly what has happened. So now here are the students who started a legitimate protest saying we want better. It makes total sense. What doesn't make sense is you believing that this is still a student protest.

Because look very carefully at the images and the videos coming out of these protests. Students, maybe they were they're protesting. Maybe they'll cause a little bit of a nuisance. Burning down French, you know, historical landmarks?

No.

From Student Demands To Anarchy Claims

SPEAKER_00 3:52

Students going out there and destroying businesses? No. The students going out there and beating people up? No.

This isn't it, folks. Because if you look at the composition right now of the people in this, they aren't students. These are the actors who have come in and taken over so that their political movement can succeed. And what is that political movement?

Anarchy. Anarchy, anarchy. As these Islamist extremists are going out there trying to disrupt further Western society for their own gain. And their own gain is to turn the West into a Muslim state.

Now there's a joke, there are two jokes floating around that they used to call Beirut the Paris of the Middle East, and now they're calling Paris the Beirut of Europe. Or Paristine, whatever you want to call it. This is really what is going on. Open your eyes, watch the videos that are coming out, and explain to me how this helps students.

It doesn't. That's the catch. None of what you're seeing right now on screen, none of what you're seeing out there is really helping the students. These protesters who have taken over very hard left, and admittedly so, hard left, hard left politicians, organizations have seized control and have turned this from a protest where students need more into destroying Paris and other cities for the sake of what?

Palestine. It isn't even a fact, folks. Get off of it. There isn't a single chance that this is exactly what is going on here.

No one cares. The people of France have embraced these people from all over the world saying, come to our shores, we'll support you, we'll take care of you, because we were bad colonizers for all these centuries. And now come and we'll take care of you. But you don't have to integrate, and you don't have to change your culture, you don't have to do anything.

You could just be you. And you has turned into this disaster. But he's also gone out and saying that Macron has done nothing in action, but police brutality. We should not go with police brutality.

Let me ask the question, Mr. Maton. What should we do? Talk?

Be nice. These are people who have we've seen videos of people destroying businesses, literally destroying businesses, institutions, fire, destroy property, attacking the police. And what should they do? Use words?

Well, that's the left for you. Instead of Jean-Luc Mélenchon calling out the writers to stop, he calls out Macron for police brutality. Sound familiar, people in the United States? Marine Le Pen, who is the right-wing candidate for presidency, literally called on the country to calm down.

That they're quote caught in a vice between violence and impotence. That right now, she is that she is right now standing up there and begging for change. Because France has gone in the wrong direction. France has always called itself the country of protests.

We love protests. We like the revolution. Look what we did in 1789. Yad.

But folks, folks, slow down. This isn't revolution. This is destruction. This is anarchy.

But I started this rant by saying, how

Media Framing And The BBC Clip

SPEAKER_00 8:05

do people react? Huh? How do people react in this one? Well, let's start with our friends of the media. The BBC, the British Broadcasting Corporation, who since October 7th still can't bring themselves to call Hamas a terrorist group, who can't admit that they have been totally anti-Israel in their bias, said a correspondent James Waterhouse and called the riots, quote, mostly peaceful, all the while displaying footage of the rioters burning down the city. Mostly peaceful burning down a city hall, mostly peaceful, destroying a business where the lady is on video calling, saying, I supported you, I was here for you. Why are you doing this to me? Mostly peacefuls, they're running around Palestinian flags, proudly showing how they destroyed synagogues, looted businesses, destroyed churches. Oh, by the way, notice no mosque was harmed in the making of this riot. The pride of destruction, the pride of yell of destruction, and pride of this Palestinian flag in flames engulfing. And now you need a curfew. And this, you don't call for perfect curfew if it's mostly peaceful. Thank you, BBC, for once again showing how dumb you could be. And then you have AOC who's yelling around and screaming, hey, smash the patriarchy. She's loving it. While wearing a scarf on her head, she loves it. She's enjoying this. Politicians all over the left are loving this. Even here in Montreal, the obnoxious and beyond disgusting leader of the Quebec solidaire. Her name is Gazal. And she is saying that it's totally understandable what's going on in France as she takes her kafia and proudly brandishes it.

US Parallels And Riot Incentives

SPEAKER_00 10:25

We're angry. Destruction matters. This is it, folks. This is where people don't understand it.

This is coming to a neighborhood near you. And I speaking of reactions, the comments I've been getting since Monday have been phenomenal. I'm the idiot. I'm the one who doesn't get it.

I'm the one who's stupid. I'm the one who doesn't, who thinks that the world is coming to an end. I'm a moron. I'm a conspiracy theorist.

I've seen these comments and I'm laughing out loud, going, okay, wait till it's at your doorstep. Anybody who's who's proudly wanting these protests, destruction. You forgot about the George Floyd incidents, the protests that happened in Minneapolis, where even African Americans lost their businesses because it was the riots didn't care. The rioters just didn't care.

And you thought that this was good. And people like sheep chased out Black Lives Matter because that was the move. You were afraid to be on the wrong side of that argument only to find out that, yeah, Black Lives Matter was a it was a full flawed organization. So guys like Rokana have continued to say that look, this is why we need to get rid of Trump.

This is why we have to get rid of Trump. What are you talking about? South America is going through an overhaul because of the left's desire to destroy society. Further government control, greater poverty, greater anger, greater, but you didn't see that in the elections.

You saw change now. Now with right-wing governments, you see change. But with left-wing governments, all you see, all you see is destruction. So, ladies and gentlemen, if you think that the media is giving you the right picture here, saying, ah, it's no big deal, it's just a bunch of students.

Or, hey, it's no big deal. It's just France. Well, it's in Milan, and apparently this weekend they're trying to spread this, just like they did campus protests for these so-called pro-Palestinians try to do these movements across the world on campuses

A Warning And A Call For Order

SPEAKER_00 12:40

around the world. You saw it once, you saw it twice. It's coming to a neighborhood by you. We need to stop it today, ladies and gentlemen. We need to send a message that we will not tolerate this as a society. We must support our government and our police force to ensure that our safety is there. Do we want more businesses to be destroyed? Do we want to see people's livelihoods ruined? Do you want to see your institutions burned down? Do you want to see this kind of racism? Call it for what it is. And stop being afraid of labels. With that, ladies and gentlemen, I'll leave you here. Have yourself a good week. I'll catch you on Friday.
