She was active in the 2017–2018 protests in France against the labour reform law presented by the French government. In an interview, she stated that she regretted violent acts done by certain protestors, but that she considered those acts a necessarily evil as she saw no other way to fight against institutional violence, which she called "the ones who actually break things, who break lives, not just windows."
