"C'est désormais le moment de choisir son camp", déclare Sébastien Lecornu, Premier ministre, au lendemain matin des manifestations du 17 Octobre. M. le premier ministre nous propose de se répartir en 2 camps: celui des droites (au pouvoir), et celui des gauches (pacifistes ou pas). Mon cœur balance pourtant. La journée avait un objet, la dégradation de notre niveau de vie, et cet objet a disparu du discours officiel en une soirée. Lycéens, enseignants, gilets jaunes, agriculteurs venus défiler pacifiquement se retrouvent sommés de choisir entre deux camps. Une semaine plus tôt, la primaire sociale-démocrate a désigné Raphaël Glucksmann. Opposer l’ordre au chaos tombe à point pour séparer une gauche fréquentable d’une gauche à isoler. Faire de ce dernier, l'idiot utile de la Macronie. L'origine de la violence... Qui a commencé? La poule ou l'œuf? Qui a une doctrine pacifiste et qui une doctrine agressive? Qui manipule la foule, comme le taureau dans une arène, quel camp? Je prédis que ce sujet va animer les plateaux médiatiques. Vont-ils parvenir à se faire des bisous à la fin? #manifestations #lycéens

Sébastien Lecornu believed that making police chiefs responsible for the violence was a dangerously inverted responsibility. He called on those who asked their supporters not to partake in the looting to clearly identify the perpetrators of the looting and vandalism. According to him, calling for an end to the violence while making excuses for its perpetrators was contradictory and fell under the political responsibility of his interlocutor. #Responsabilité #Violence #Justice (translated)
