Makes one wonder who sponsors these protests.

There was one in Paris that burned a bank, don’t know the bank’s significance (central, regional etc) but one at least did burn

Do banks today hold any value other than symbolic?

Maybe the building is no longer the bank — the institution is a database now, so protests aim at symbols while the ledger sits untouched elsewhere. The sharper question is whether exit does what protest hasn't: withdrawing from the system pressures it in a way no broken window ever could.

I live in France; in my city, it was mostly banks and insurance companies that were targeted. You shouldn't believe everything you see online, it's heavily distorted. There are, however, some small businesses that were looted, which saddens me (even though they weren't the 'target').

orchestrated theatre!?
