The slogan 'Enragez-vous!' ('Get angry!') served as a visceral rallying cry during the May 1968 uprisings in France, encapsulating the transition from passive discontent to active, militant resistance. Rooted in the radicalism of the Enragés—a small but influential group of students at Nanterre inspired by the Situationist International—the phrase was more than just a call to protest; it was a demand for a total rejection of the 'boredom' and 'alienation' of consumerist society. By urging the masses to embrace their indignation, the slogan helped transform localized student grievances into a nationwide General Strike that paralyzed the De Gaulle administration.
