Barely a peep from the media about the developing situation and protests. The revolution will not be televised springs to mind. Is it really not newsworthy or what is actually going on?

Is this a movement or a moment?

I think its both. As "the movement" has no organization or leader it does not really have a clear destination or guidance. I also think it attracted a lot of general disgruntled ppl in the last week who now "in the moment" can finally vent their frustrations. We'll just have to wait and see how long this movement has momentum and what remains when the frustrations are vented.

France24 reports that "green vests" were also on the march and proclaiming brotherhood with "yellow vests", which sounds odd. One group seeming to want restrictions on carbon and one not. Any thoughts on this, is there something lost in the translation?
