Its a long story of alienation of the French people form their quite feudal self-proclaimed elites, of which Macronman is seen as a extraordinarily blasé and arrogant representative. The pension thing is just the last straw that broke the camel's back. The political caste in France is very elitist and distanced from the common people'S reality, gets formed and educated quite isolated from the common people and the ordinary world, curent conflict is not the first confrontation between people and Macronman either. Finally, the French are ticking very lefty, and Macronman's pension is anything but that. The clash was inevitable.

The pension reform btw is about more than just 2 years more of work, there is also some mathematical stuff involved regarding from when on and after how many years pensioneers get full pensions indeed, and in a TV docu some weeks ago they showed that here the even bigger reason for the French people's anger is hidden, because in reality already now many people must work until much longer than just their 62nd birthday if they want to get full pension, and not just a reduced one. But i do not recall the details.

Just understand that the turmoil is about more than just 64 versus 62 years of age.
