On this Saturday, June 3, what amazement and disappointment to discover that the newspaper The duty publishes a long interview with “the old fool” (I quote him) Frédéric Beigbeder […] as well as a huge photo of this French author.
I wonder about the motivations of the Duty, which claims to be a left-wing newspaper, to offer such a platform to such a controversial individual who is disconnected from societal movements and who flirts with the French extreme right. Is it sensationalism? Opportunism? A failed review?
How Mr. Beigbeder annoys us with his weakened virility and his status as an emasculated man. He identifies with a victim. Victim of what, exactly? A loss of his privileges as a white heterosexual? What does he know of oppression? Is he a victim because he would have been beaten by a priest at seven years old and would have suffered the exhibitionism of a man who would have shown him his sex? Without denigrating this experience, is he a simple narcissist without empathy who tips over into victimization? Is it he who lives daily, like us in the LGBTQI+ communities, with insult, insult, hatred, rejection, contempt, death, because of our difference? He seems to take pleasure in his comfort and his posture as a white heterosexual man refractory to changes and the evolution of society.
In this interview, he also says he is a victim of racism four times, because he is attacked as a white heterosexual male. Is it still victimization or a misunderstanding of racism?
Like any good right-wing citizen, he blames wokism for all his misfortunes. Again this word “woke” abused and misused to justify the fear of the dominants in their loss of dominance. […]
I propose to Mr. Beigbeder to calm his testosterone level and to “shoot” some hormones to open up to societal changes and adapt to them.
If he weren’t so stuck in his heteronormativity, he might be less stupid! Let’s cancel Frédéric Beigbeder once and for all, and good riddance!
