Contre la Facilité du Politiquement Incorrect

(against the facility of a certain political incorrectness)

Raphaêl Enthoven sur Politiquement Incorrect.

Should be translated into English and many other languages/à traduire en Anglais et beaucoup d’autres langues!

Toute facilité est à décrier, mais en France le politiquement incorrect semblerait plus tentant que le “politically correct” des U.S.A.

Every facile temptation has to be denounced, but in France people may be more inclined towards the politically incorrect than the U.S.’s PC.

To ride the unbalance* between:
1. excellence and a kind, singular and porous identity that contains some of the scruples, humor, humility, musicality & the beauty of a harsh and confusing, yet benign and rich reality – away from distractions.
2. the stupidity and blindness of complacency, violence, injustice, pretense, egos, short-term… wishful… and group “thinking,” and empty talk – in all of their surprising embodiments. And the false sense of fullness all of this provides.

1. Beware of those who claim to be strong – they are often dangerous.
2. Unmask the hoax of “centrality” – ask an “EX-centric” for assistance?
3. Perceive the arrogance of normalcy: everybody, in one way or another, is handicapped… which brings us back to 1.
