But why are they protesting tho? I read somewhere that Mélenchon basically wants France to burn just to rally the far left, especially now that polls are showing Le Pen ahead. Is there any truth to that?
I'm not French, but from what I've read, the protests started because of the state of public education. Students are complaining about overcrowded classrooms, not enough teachers, and schools falling apart. Then things got worse after clashes with the police, and the whole thing kinda escalated from there. At least thats the official reason being reported.
