Your race !

I believe everyone has heard about the last Eric Zemmour scandal, this villain man who took the liberty during a talk show about the beneficial effect of miscegenation, to make his point on the existence of races, using as a proof against his interlocutor, who was offended, the fact that he was white and that she was black !

Immediatly, collective protest by journalists and politics, complementary castes reputed for their courage, independance and inspiring vision. As I do not want to do them the honors of quoting everyone, here are two tops :

For the blacks : Patrick Lozes, president of the CRAN (representative council of black associations, it is said in the title) being indignant that one dares to define him by his colour skin ! And this after gladdening himself, as Rama Yade, with the election of a black man to the American presidency regardless of his social and political program...

This is the proof that at least schizophrenia has no skin colour !

For the whites : M. Wievorka, research director at the EHESS, director of the CADIS, and president of the international sociological association (no less), asking that Zemmour, for this blasphemy – and as only argument – gets sanctioned and referred to court ! (Let us remind ourselves that the so-called “incitment to racial hatred” will soon be punishable by one to three years imprisonment in the entire E.U...)

This absurd climate, where blacks, who claim to be such – before any social determination – are shocked that one dares to take them for what they pretend themselves to be, demonstrates how right Zemmour is : After the outrageous racialism from the 30’s (whose greatest champion were primarly the Americans...) here we are right in the outrageaous anti-racism.

To try to elevate the debate, I am going to dare to sum you up the three succesive phases of anti-racism :

One : Inferior races do not exist.

Elit discourse from the 30’s that became majority after 1945 and the sufferings in question, which was convenient during the period of decolonization – Proving that science has often to do with history and ideology... Hence, the success of Claude Levi-Strauss demonstrating us, using structuralist anthropology, that primitive thought does not exist, unlike what were affirming so peremptorily his predecessors – Also left-winger – Durkheim and levy-bruhl...

Based on this affirmation-demonstration that inferior races do not exist, we the reach the second phase : Races do not exist !

New dominant discourse from the 60/70’s, with as new theoritical justification the much shorter argument of “it is more complicated than this”. Or, under the pretence that the term “race” was too vague and that we should rather use the term “ethno-cultural entities”, the pure and simple disappearance of races, An argument a bit weak since according to this approach – known as complexity – it does not exist anymore from then on, any colors or musical notes ( and yeah, between two colours or two notes, like between two races, there are no absolute borders but a progression from yellow to orange, from orange to red... some half tones, quater tones, seventh tones even in the indian music...)

Ideological affirmation of the non-existence of races, for reasons of limits and borders (old philosophical chestnut) that causes the aforementioned anti-racists – their level continuing to go down – to confuse race and specie... Hence, to hear when Zemmour says to a young black woman that they are not from the same race, that they are not from the same specie, as if he was talking about cats and dogs, worse, humans and monkeys, whereas he was only evoking the basset-hound and the chihuahua...

(As a reminder for the uncultured : in the animal world, they are different races, but reproducible with each others : blacks and whites, basset-hounds and chihuahuas... and some species non reproducible with each others like humans and monkeys, dogs and cats...Even though blacks and whites are not from the same race, they are from the same specie, human specie – that the anti-specists reassure themselves – since their mating produces mixed race, equivalent to crossbreed for the dogs).

That they are no inferior races (or, rather that this question is so complex that it is not possible to affirm anything peremptorily) does not preclude that they are different races. The actual ignorance and confusion lead us to the third and actual phase of anti-racism : As the races do not exist, we then need to promote blacks (who do not exist) and encourage at all costs, blacks and whites (who do not exist either) to crossbreed !

Freedom for history... My ass !

To change the subject, let us then talk about the findings of the association “freedom for history” Led by Pierre Nora.

An intellectuals and historians collective that is supposed to liberate the right of historical researches from the debilitating “memorial laws”...

While we were logically moving towards a conclusion lauding the abrogation of all “memorial laws” which led, like institutional anti-racism, to the complete blocking of the right to think (not to mention the endless criminalization of all historical majorities...), Mister Nora, following a perfectly jesuitical argument, said that he was in favor of the abrogation of all memorial laws... with the exeption of the Gayssot act. Gayssot act that is however, the one that constitutes the jurisprudence and the matrix for all the others, past and future...

Gayssot act which, I recall, institutes for the first time in a democratic and laic system, an historical truth established once and for all by a military court whose orthodoxy is from now on given to the tribunals !

Miss Taubira - who beneficiates from the Gayssot act jurisprudence for the slave memorial act, also instituted “crime against humanity” (soon will follow the colonization and the civilization...) immediately asked politely to Nora if he was taking the piss of her ?!... And the brave association to conclude , in unison with its president, that memorial laws being effectively bad, we shall make sure not to change the existing ones and to be opposed, on the other hand, to all the ones to come

A morally indefensible attitude – and undoubtly legally unbearable – that sorely offend the Armenians !
