Rama Yade's interview with
L'Express
caused a stir and it was the goal she was looking for after years in the media desert.
Her last-minute conversion to Wokism is a form of swan song from a spoiled child who saw herself as President of the Republic.
Let us not forget that this Senate official saw the so-called elites roll out the red carpet of the Republic for her more than once.
Today she does not hesitate, faithful to her behavior as a spoiled child of politics, to spit in the soup, because it is no longer good enough.
Would she be so bottle-fed with this woke sauce that she would forget her Republican fundamentals and a loyalty to the country that has given her so much?

Recall that she was a minister but also had the immense privilege of being appointed Ambassador of France to Unesco ... a position from which she will resign because of the duty of reserve that it imposed and the national destiny that she imagined. The fashion was then Barack Obama. How to respect the function and the reserve which falls to it when one thinks that the nation awaits you?
It is good to recall these elements of context to understand the ambition and today the frustration which lead Ms. Yade to spit on the Republic and France.
She thought she was the incarnation that the Nation needed and finally she landed in an American think tank by improvising a researcher in discrimination and wokism ... Would she be so bottle-fed with this woke sauce that she would forget her Republican fundamentals and a loyalty to the country that has given him so much?
To read also Céline Pina: "The course of Rama Yade proves that the" white privilege "does not exist in France"
If his words are the result of frustration, it should only provoke in us a benevolent compassion. But let us be careful, because on the bottom these declarations are dangerous and sow the seeds of division. Rama Yade, by taking up the theses of those who hate France to the point of wanting to “cancel” “suppress” or “rewrite” its history, blows on the embers of separatism, even of the emergence of a possible struggle of “races”. ".
We are well aware that all the apostles of Wokism play on the colonial guilt of Western civilization to promote positive discrimination by censoring anything that is not in their interests.
Guilt and repentance thus become levers of social mobility and revenge, against the backdrop of competition from ethnic minorities.
We are there, far, very far from the Republic and its universalism.
Is Rama Yade the spokesperson for an American soft power which continues to denigrate the Republic and in particular secularism?
Lydia Guirous
I am always surprised when the French praise the American model. Is Rama Yade the spokesperson for an American soft power which continues to denigrate the Republic and in particular secularism? A soft power that is also settling in the suburbs and supports indigenous and intersectional movements? What is the next step for Rama Yade who uses the expressions of "police violence" and "facial control"? A demonstration arm in arm with Assa Traoré?
In the end, Rama Yade's problem is not so much his last-minute convert woke, but rather the larger problem of a generation who thinks they can reach the highest positions without work and without methodical construction of a career, just on the basis of what they claim to be physically or socially.
Social networks unfortunately bring them a form of pathological intoxication of power.
How sad, deep down: there is so much to build through work in our country.
