While Pope Francis left earlier in the week for Africa, a pair of his shoes headed to Paris.

The papal shoes -- black Oxfords with a laminated sign above them adorning Francis' signature and the words "Laudato Si'" -- joined thousands of other sneakers, slippers and pumps in a symbolic march at the Place de la Republique in Paris.

"The people's march".

Mao & Lenin would have loved it,Trotsky attempted to organize & hi-jack it for his own flavor of modified Bolshivism, and Stalin sent goons to strip shoes off the peasants in support of The Cause.

To the Proletariat!, woops, I mean to the Earf! Glory! (and jobs too...ahh screw it, justice gimmedat u-got but it's not nice to disturb the Earf in the very least justus YOU gimme wut U-got to justus).

Donated(?) shoes, who's alleged prior owners could not be troubled with attending the organized 'march', symbolically marching to on Paris to demand social justice/climate justice???

No personal offense intended towards the Chinese-looking women in the below image, who if are from China, are from the most polluted industrialized nation, and so perhaps have some gripe about unfettered greed in for-profit business ventures, but these people are well-scripted harebrains.

Who is writing these scripts, I do wonder. They rarely seem to get to the part of just how poorer countries will be supplied jobs, while the Earf-first(!) is put under glass display casing -- do not touch-do not disturb.
