I'm sure you've all heard the name George Soros. He's a very wealthy man worth about 25 billion dollars. It's alleged he along with others in this country paid people to disrupt Trump campaign events during the recent elections. It's also alleged that he's been doing much the same thing in Montenegro. Could he be behind what happened in Corsica? I think it's very possible. He's trying to shape the "world" into the type of society he thinks it should be.
EDIT:
Doing a little more research on this protest and it looks like this protest might have been more about the liberation of Corsica than other major events going on in mainland France.

".......Never will we let this party, whose former leader had demanded the death penalty for the Corsican political prisoners, come safely to our country..........."
Lanfranchi Blanche Jean Baptiste posted this today in FB....
"In the wake of the incidents that day to aiacciu, Corsica Libera gives its support to the young militants, separatists, who oppose the dissemination in our country of ideological venom distilled by the national front party, French Anti-Corsica, including former Leader had asked for the death penalty for our resilient, called a "terrorist".
The Nervis of service who dare to attack our youth must know that they will always find in front of them a people ready to defend all its freedoms. Beyond ideological peer, our culture, our history, our national conscience, while we will reject always totalitarianism, and the noise of the boots."
