Is the joke that the main river in Paris is so polluted that swimmers would need to wear protection?
Never mind that the swimming events would be held in a pool instead

Paris is spending a bunch of money to clean up the river because they want to have the swimming events in the river. The citizens of Paris are protesting by planning to shit in the river.
