   We have documented another sighting of the legendary "mud wizard," who became famous in January for tipping a police officer into the mud during the mobilization to defend #Lutzerath from a destructive open-pit mine.

   Today's footage comes from a livestream of clashes in #Sainte-Soline, France, where ecological activists set several police cars on fire during a protest against an industrial mega-project. These clashes come amid intensifying unrest in France in response to Macron's government forcing through an unpopular pension reform.
