    I’m sure you were just being hyperbolic, but its important to note that this isn’t some relic of ancient history

    No, I mean 800 years ago, like the 1229 University of Paris strike (riot), but yes, there were many others that happened in the last <300 years.

    Regardless, I think the impact of a modern day riot isn’t nearly the same as one taking place hundreds of years ago.
