I don't think folks riot over general concepts like socialism or even globalism. I think they riot over the little things in their lives that piss them off (like rising gas/diesel prices) and taxes in general. Adding to that is a free-floating anger that they (the rioters) may not even be able to identify.

I think you are so wrong.

I think the FR poster's statement is spot on.

People don't riot over generalized anger against some nebulous political theory or system.

They're pissed because Macaroni's gas tax was going to make their lives even more difficult.

They're angry because of the price of groceries to feed their families keep going up.

They're mad because he government has let so many foreign migrants in the country who have few skills and live off the taxpayer's largesse.

Unless you have a good counter argument, instead of just saying the poster's comment is "so wrong", I believe you are the one who is so wrong.
