We are the advocates of the dead, not because we hear their voices, but because we refuse to subject knowledge to seductive illusions. Science cannot be a field of "exceptional" experiments; it is, above all, a space of intellectual demand.
In the world before, literature was the way to know the lives of others, to imagine one's own, and to test one's virtues, one's body, one's fantasies, one's hopes and one's ambitions. The teachers of morality and virtue were neither civil servants nor paid activists, but thinkers and artists grappling with the human question. This library is still available. Mr. Minister Delegate, hold on!
There is no stopping progress in the invention of new woke causes, intended to wake up the troops who are a little too asleep again. Because it's true, by force of stuffing ourselves with "gender" (about half of the themes listed in the 250 or so items of our 2023 Report), "racialization", "Islamophobia", "homophobia", "transphobia", "fatphobia" and all the phobias imaginable (except that of mice and reptiles, the only ones that I unfortunately have to confess), we end up finding the soap opera a little repetitive... Thus the dreary flock of "sheep of thought" periodically struggles to renew the livestock of the unfortunate victims of Domination (curse your name too pronounced!). And the latest discovery to date is children. Dare you?
This requires, since the Nation's budget is under discussion, to create a specific envelope for the fight against adultism, intended to promote paid internships led by the children themselves, in order to better ensure that the specific oppression they suffer is understood. These will aim to awaken parents and, beyond that, all adults, to the toxic relationship that pushed them to have children without asking their opinion.
Today, it is a twenty-year-old Sciences Po student, Pablo Ladam, who tells us about the madness that has taken hold of his school in its fight against "sexist and sexual violence". He does so in a high-quality text, Terreur violette, which is absolutely essential reading and which we all hope to see published soon.
The university, supposed to be a place of neutrality and scientific rigor, is drifting towards a worrying politicization, as evidenced by the recent motion of the CEPED (CNRS), which adopts a militant pro-Palestinian position. This position compromises the credibility of research and instrumentalizes the social sciences for ideological purposes. The academic institution must preserve its independence and avoid becoming a vector of political agenda.
It is from Scotland that we receive news that a child is suffering from "species dysphoria" and identifies with a wolf. Oncologist Jacques Robert expands on this theme.
On September 17, the university popularization site TheConversation published an article by our colleague Albin Wagener (“professor of discourse analysis and communication” at the Catholic Institute of Lille) entitled “Moral panics: the fatal weapon of the extreme right”. The illustration chosen by the editorial staff is as eloquent as the title: an agit-prop poster declaring “The extreme right speaks to you every day, 24/24”, with the logos of C8 and Europe 1. Let’s add: on TheConversation, it is the extreme left that speaks to us every day, but with an additional advantage: it is not through the voice of journalists but under the cover of academic expertise. Double punishment.
Mrs. Réjane Sénac holds a doctorate from the IEP of Paris in political science, specializing in "political thought". With a Master 2 in law and a Master 1 in philosophy from the University of Paris I - Panthéon Sorbonne, she is above all a member
There was the first medalist for the refugee team, Cameroonian boxer Cindy Ngamba; the selfie of the South and North Korean table tennis players, united on the podium; and the Australian Rachel Gunn, who distinguished herself with a break dance performance that earned her no points but rather a flood of jeers. It is very likely that she consciously provoked this fiasco to put herself forward in the many media outlets that reported on it.
