Actually:
June 4th, 2023, 300 Germans set fire to police barricades and attacked Leipzig police officers. The rioters were protesting jail sentences for people who attacked neo-nazis.

These are protests to breaches by authority against standing political, social and economic infrastructure rather than the infrastructure itself you are referring to; that infrastructure is as in place in France as it is in Germany.
You said "We have the same stuff in Germany without burning shit down..."
The article I replied with references Germans "burning shit down" this month to effect change.
Ah yes, "The Economy", the favorite catch all of politicians.
I don't know about you, but from here it looks like it's going to go to shit whether we burn stuff or not.
I'm not French, btw.
But here in Canada, where the unemployment rate is at an all-time low, I can tell you we're not out of the woods yet. My work is somewhat affected by the state of the economy and this year it's been really slow. No one is investing because of uncertainty and high interest rates.
The economy is about to go to shits, and it's not like we riot nearly enough lol
The real problem is the lack of accountability of politicians. They're the only ones with any power to do anything, and they're just making things worse. They stoke fear in people and sell us out to corporations, and no one cares to do anything about it. That's why people respect the French, they at least TRY to do something about it.
