The American vice-president, JD Vance, alerted the European conscience to the unhealthy temptations which await our tired democracies: in Romania, in Germany, in France, the opponents are hunted, monitored, disqualified. In this context where censorship lurks, a liberticide manifesto announces the gradual strangulation of free minds. The paper was committed by Pierre Rosanvallon, a mage of the system. It belongs to what Péguy called the “Intellectual Party”which defines the metaphysics of the city and which Paul Valéry called the “Delusional professions”.
The world He opened his columns for a column with a peremptory tone, published just after the judicial execution of Marine Le Pen. This thinker of the French intelligentsia, who holds it for the toga, claims “Save democracy”. The rescue is due in two prescriptions: first the change of reference sovereign. Rosanvallon explains to us that there are two kinds of sovereignties: that of “Arithmetic people”the people of the ballot boxes, an aggregate of chance that makes up the mood of the moment. And that of “People-community” which is defined by values. “The instrument of this sovereignty is justice, which is the factory of values. »»
“The fear of getting out of the sanitary perimeter prepare for the damage of consciences and the eclipse of freedom”
The logical conclusion implies two reversals: the legitimacy of the power of the judges must be received for greater than that of the ballot boxes. And true popular sovereignty must be judicial sovereignty. Thus, the judicialization of political life installs judicial messianism. The Tribunician function goes from the forum to the courtroom. It is a legal coup. The second prescription places freedom of expression under the empire of the surveillance company. From a bitter observation: “The demonization of populism has no more effect. »» So it is necessary “Continue tirelessly word thieves and traffickers of ideas”.
This reminds us of Hannah Arendt’s word on the three ways to intimidate the dissident. First of all the demonology: you make you a demon. Then the negation of reality: you make you a deviant. Finally, judicial stigma: you are made a offender. What does this new Orwellian doctrine conceal? An atmosphere of panic: the left no longer prints. Ariane Mnouchkine admitted it in a surprising self -criticism*: “We, people on the left, have dropped the people. When people said what they saw, they were told that they were wrong, that they didn’t see what they saw. As they insisted, they were told that they were fools. Then, as they insisted more beautifully, they were treated with bastard. »»
Ministry of Truth
Behind panic, there is the “Sauve-who-can”. We can guess the droplets of cold sweat in front of the obsessive emergency to sanctuarize the great globalist and diversary story held by the planetary caste, now jostled. In Davos, in January 2024, Ursula von der Leyen had already struck the tocsin, explaining that “Disinformation (was) The first danger of our time ” and that freedom of expression could not be an end in itself. The idea is to restrict your perimeter. With a legal corset that induces psychological conditioning.
The ideal is to create, in front of the system, which self -controls, a self -monitoring company: the journalist self -control. The teacher self -highlights. The politician self -censorship. We don’t say anything anymore. We don’t think anything anymore … So the judicial institution is called to become the “Ministry of Truth”, which imposes the Novlangue. Fear, the fear of getting out of the sanitary perimeter prepare for the switching of consciences and the eclipse of freedom. Bernanos had prophesied it: “The worst threat to freedom is not that we let it take it, because we can always win it back, it is that we unlearn from loving it and that we no longer understand it. »»
