Macron's Anti-Democratic Sleight of Hand

Maelle, a student in Lyon, and Agat, a union railway worker at a state-owned rail company, spoke to CNN about the movement. The two met through a struggle committee designed to bring people from different backgrounds and movements together to fight against Macron's reforms. Maelle: "What they are using right now is their historical trap, which consists of confusing democracy and constitution nihilism" 'They confuse all of the forces on the left,' says Agat. "'We eat babies' ... That sounds like the American right too.' And this is kind of linked to police violence," she adds.
