It refers to the ongoing revolt in France by various groups, but mostly, honest, middle-aged, middle-class people who are setting fires to things and making life hell in the ritzy districts of Paris.
Friends in France tell me that the Yellow Jackets are mostly middle-class and middle-aged people who never even joined in the perennial French sport of striking; people who have jobs, bills, families.
These people are busy the rest of the time, and can't afford to lose their jobs.
The bourgeois, which the left has tried to make into an insult, but which are in fact the backbone of the West, are the people who do things and keep our communities ticking.
Most Americans, thank heavens, don't understand the causes that MC & MA people in France, and frankly in the rest of Europe, particularly Southern Europe, have to be so furious.
Mostly? Most people don't have jobs or, labor still being very cheap in those countries, when they do, they don't make enough to compete with Northern tourists, retirees, and relocating foreigners for the houses in their cities and villages.
What you have are people my age and older whose kids don't have jobs or a future, and who know that when they're gone their kids will at best be renters working manual labor or service for the foreigners moving in.
