Michel Houellebecq: "A civilization which legalizes euthanasia loses all rights to respect"
Alice Coffin is an elected EELV, at the Council of Paris, who distinguished herself by remarks about men. A feminist activist with radical methods, she made herself known to the general public through statements bordering on hatred of men. For example, she assumes that she does not watch a movie made by men or that not being in a relationship with a man has protected her from marital rape and violence.
By this type of statement, which is - obviously - the fruit of intellectual thought, structured, deep and subtle ... It criminalizes half of humanity. It assigns the masculine gender, the man, to a position of potential executioner or in the making. It assigns the other half of humanity, women, to a position of victim or becoming victim. These assignments are dangerous because under the guise of the fight for gender equality, a sexual separatism is taking place.
The elected EELV is in this in the right line of ecological thought, which deals with everything except ecology.
They have become monomaniacs on societal issues.
They use the methods of whatever they wish to fight.
To fight against racism, they make themselves racist by classifying people according to their melanin level and forbidding "white people" from meetings.
To fight against sexism, they classify according to gender and prohibit "men" from meetings.
I prefer a society where women emerge through their talents and their courage, than a society where they are alibis, quotas.
Lydia Guirous
Sorting, separating, forbidding, such is the deleterious triptych of neofeminism. Everyone at home, everyone in their own hut. It is not a society of emancipation that the elected EELV and neofeminists seek to build, it is a society of determinism, of identity confinement.
Their approach is accountable, cold, without humanity.
The proposal to condition public subsidies to theaters whose programming respects a principle of parity, is a proposal to control artistic creation.
A form of censorship of artistic genius, of creation.
Actresses, women directors or authors, will ultimately be considered as alibis for subsidies.
I prefer a society where women emerge through their talents and their courage, than a society where they are alibis, quotas.
Let's stop making feminism a fight for little accountants.
Women and men are made to live together, in equality.
Lydia Guirous
This shopkeeper feminism is a dangerous sexual separatism for our society. Women and men are made to live together, in equality. There is no need to criminalize some and victimize others to build a more just society. The quest for gender equality is a quest for equal rights, not the search for doctrinal egalitarianism imposed by guilt and threat. In this, the Coffin method is a backward method, outdated by its radicalism and counterproductive.
I would like so much that Alice Coffin uses her talent and her energy to fight against the real misogynists, the real homophobes, the real sexists who want to see women disappear from the public space: Islamisms. Those who ruined the life of Mila, a young bisexual girl, a prisoner in her own country. Mila is still waiting for the support of feminists and LGBT activists, since she was 16, she has suffered from their silence. Ostrich feminism has a bright future ahead of it. Feminism commits suicide by allowing itself to be infiltrated by this intellectual mush that is intersectionality. The struggle of the races and the struggle of the sexes are two dead ends towards which a part of the left can be carried. Women will be the big losers.
