I'm not French so I can't pretend to understand French politics. But my understanding was that most of what Macron did was good... except for redistributing the gains from the taxes back to the people affected by them.

As far as I understand, these taxes are a necessary evil to curb climate change. Good policy, bad politics.
I feel the way you would
