French pension age rise to 64 cleared by court

This is the dumbest take I've ever seen on this topic, and I can't believe people still come to this conclusion.

Are you going to yell for help in a library if someone is trying to rape you? Yes, you fucking are. You don't care if it disrupts the rules of the library, to not be loud in a place of sacred silence. Your well being and potentially your life are both in danger, so you disrupt other people's lives and break the rules so that you don't suffer someone else's injustice being acted upon you.

Rioting is the same shit, on a larger scale, with more people involved. I am so tired of people pretending like being disruptive and "harming third parties" isn't a valid way to get people to pay attention to an injustice being afflicted upon you. Hell, the library analogy isn't even perfect, because technically someone is trying to rape everyone in the library, not just you.
