Some Parisians are preparing to protest a $1.5 billion state-backed initiative aimed at cleaning up the Seine River in Paris ahead of next month’s Olympic Games.
The hashtag #JeChieDansLaSeineLe23Juin, which translates to “I s—- in the Seine on June 23,” has gained traction on social media platform X following the announcement of the swim date, Metro reports. A website with the same name has been launched, allowing participants to register the locations where they plan to defecate.
Social media has been inundated with memes reacting to the protest. Among the more family-friendly images is an AI-generated picture showing toilets installed by the “City of Paris” along the Seine’s banks. Another doctored image features Mr. Macron standing on a bridge over a river filled with excrement.
