The farmers are apparently unaware that government is already full of shit. From Paul Joseph Watson at modernity.news:
They’re not messing around.
French farmers are dumping vast quantities of manure on government buildings to protest against excessive environmental regulations that threaten their way of life.
The farmers are protesting against excessive regulations and climate hysteria technocracy that threatens to ruin their livelihoods, as well as an EU ban on glyphosate.
Roads were also blockaded and vehicles set ablaze.
Hundreds of farmers also blocked roads near council buildings around Saint-Brieuc.
Seems appropriate.
