There were certainly students from immigrant communities involved in the uprising. The uprising was facilitated by by their teachers, just like what happens in the United States. It was caused by leftist indoctrination in schools, with teachers training the students to be activists &#8211; that is the cause.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Following the start of the student movement, it expanded to include teachers, university students, the major labor unions and the antifa\/anti-capitalist groups. All of it is grounded in far-left ideology. They are explicitly calling for the communist overthrow of the government and now it is bleeding into other countries in the region. That is what all the evidence says. And I&#8217;ve collected primary source evidence from multiple groups, including recordings you refuse to look at.<\/em>\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\" xml:lang=\"en\">The communists in France are saying explicitly it&#8217;s not a protest.
