Death to groupthink

Rioufoul, on good, acid, form in Figaro today:

"This year promises to be tricky for bien pensants: Their blindness to the
state of the country has made many French people hostile to groupthink. They
have forbidden criticism, on penalty of banishment, of the happy-go-lucky
welfare handouts and innocent racial mélangisme, which have resulted in
public debt and ethnic strife. Bankruptcy and civil war are no longer
outlandish scenarios. Which is why the clear-headed wish to break with these
vandals who continue to pontificate.
Since the revolt on 29 May, which saw voters defy orders given by
politicians and media, good sense has become a virtue again. As Voltaire
observed in 1762 in his Essay on Intolerance "reason advances daily in
France, both at the market stall and in the houses of the rich. The fruits
of reason must be nurtured - all the more since it is impossible to prevent
them from ripening".
The insistence of the reality is obliging our leaders to come out from their
impenetrable gates and listen to the people. What the people are saying is
shaking the "antiracist" ideology and its false kindness. A poll published
in le Monde on 15 December revealed that 73% of French people believe their
traditional values are not being defended adequately, while 63% think their
are too many immigrants. A poll in Figaro on 1 December showed that 64%
believe colonisation had "positive aspects".
The smashing of taboos has only just begun. The didacts will have trouble
silencing this sea change, the result of reaction to their liberticide
dogmatism. Even left wing historians criticise the forced apologies
expressed by official history, while attacks against the critical spirit
have fallen flat. The lynching of Alain Finkielkraut, guilty of raising the
"ethnic and religious" character of the suburban rebellion, has emphasised
the partisan nature of the good apostles.
Beyond the rediscovery of patriotism, which Jacques Chirac vaunted during
his televised Christmas address, 2006 could be the year when conservatism
makes a comeback, in preparation for the 2007 presidential campaign. The
censors believe this patriotism is the mark of neo-reactionaries and le
Pen-isation of thought. This demonisation illustrates their refusal to stop
falsifying reality. Nevertheless, a mental revolution is taking place. May
it pursue its course without folly and violence.
[But] The propaganda of those who speak falsely remains intact. These
illusionists pass the thug Joey Starr off as a model citizen for "the
youth", but pigeonhole Nicolas Sarkozy with Jean-Marie Le Pen. They fall
silent when Jamel Debbouze declares "I am proud to be Moroccan" but wail
about xenophobia when a Frenchman says the same thing about his country.
They heap scorn on French colonisation and celebrate the muslim occupation
of Andalusia.
Those who are once again seeing things in their proper light are tired of
the brainwashing and culpabilisation. They fail to notice that president
Bouteflika comes to Paris for medical care after insulting the Republic for
its historic presence in Algeria, comparing its methods to that of the
Nazis. They ponder the "wounds" suffered by those who were colonised and who
are coming to France in droves to benefit from its civilisation.
In short, people no longer want to be taken for idiots. Including by the
left when it insists on its illogical thought... Everywhere you look, nerves
are raw.
Faced with this situation, there is a big temptation for the Government to
minimise the lack of security. In november, commentators admitted they were
aghast by the hatred some of the rioters showed, mentally ready to kill. We
saw more more barbarism on the Nice-Lyon train on 1 January. A gang of thugs
was allowed to terrorise 600 passengers, and assault two women, to the
indifference of the "human right-ists". Those who protested were met with
shouts of "You're dead" from the rabble.
Nonetheless, these scenes only resulted in two incarcerations. By chance,
they were were not revealed until Tuesday afternoon. The same day, the
Government decided to suspend the state of emergency, Jean-Francois Copé
saying "the situation seems to be generally calm". Nevertheless on Sunday,
425 cars were torched, a rise of 27.6% compared to the previous year. The
Government is guilty of wishful thinking."
