    It’s a pretty Eurocentric take to think that the yellow vest protests are on everyone’s radar.

      We’re taking about France. I’m American and like BBQ but I’m not going to complain about not following international news when we’re in a fucking thread in a comment section talking about fucking France.

        Sure but we’re in world news, not France news. We’re talking about France but you can’t expect everyone to be familiar with French politics.

      I’d say it’s more of a g8ish centrism. I don’t care about French news in particular. But their protests get a lot of world new attention. I doubt equivalent protests in a place like Hungary would get similar attention, but it would if it were Japan.
