Yellowjackets Star Christina Ricci Defends French Rioters Looting Luxury Stores and Burning Historic City Hall as Just ‘Protesting the State of the World’

Actress Christina Ricci has defended the ongoing French riots this week, posting on Threads that the “rioting mobs” destroying property and attacking landmarks are simply “protesting the state of the world.”

When one user wrote, “Stop calling what’s happening in France ‘protests.’ These are rioting MOBS.”

Ricci replied, “Yes and those ‘rioting mobs’ are protesting the state of the world.”

The actress later responded to another post showing footage of rioters smashing and looting luxury stores including Celine, Burberry, Dior, and Louis Vuitton in Paris.

The user called the destruction sad and asked why people destroy property when the stores had done nothing.

Ricci, who is worth a pretty penny, responded, “Capitalism doesn’t need your grief.”

The riots allegedly began as a normal protest, but quickly spiraled into widespread looting, arson, and attacks on police by both migrants and leftist activists.

French officials have reported more than 2,500 arrests, nearly 1,000 injured officers, and thousands of shops ransacked.

In Paris, streets were left covered in wreckage, broken glass, and burned vehicles.

In Limoges, a 19th-century neo-Renaissance town hall completed in 1883 that had survived two world wars was largely gutted by fire, with its wooden bell tower collapsed after arsonists forced entry and set fires in the cellars.

A known ultra-left activist on France’s S-file terror watchlist was arrested as the main suspect in that attack.

President Emmanuel Macron has blamed “seditious elements from far-left splinter groups, joined by many delinquents.”

Vice President JD Vance responded to a video of the burning Limoges town hall by writing that “Western liberals imported the third world into France and other countries in the name of diversity and compassion. They ignored fundamental questions of assimilation and compatibility. They were told it would lead to this and they didn’t listen.”

I pray that France, a beautiful country of amazing people, will stop this madness before more of its landmarks burn.

And I hope Americans are paying attention. This is the future congressional Democrats seek for your country.

Vance added that he hoped France would stop the destruction of its landmarks and warned that “this is the future congressional Democrats seek for your country.”
