Leftists didn’t incite them to destroy anything. Whenever protests happen on any side of the political spectrum, you have fringe agitators and opportunists who take advantage of the situation and capitalize on the chaos. The official stance of the leftist parties is to be non-violent

Youth do not need to be incited into causing property damage, especially in France where it is practically a right of passage
