This is the latest find of the Macronists swept away last July by the NFP wave, and who are clinging to their rock of power at all costs. It didn’t take more than a video showing Marine Tondelier and Olivier Faure dancing a wild rock to a song by Céline Dion, Saturday evening at the Green Summer Days, to cry scandal. And trigger a new media storm.
That very morning, the anti-Semitic attack against the synagogue of La Grande-Motte took place. Do you see the syllogism coming? By daring to dance that evening, the two party leaders would therefore be complacent with anti-Semitism… In any case, that is what the Paris MP, Benjamin Haddad, insinuated on X (ex-Twitter): ” On the evening of an anti-Semitic attack, we laugh, we dance, we have fun with a character wearing the president’s mask. All is well at the NFP. »
The St. Vitus Dance of Right-Wing Columnists
Some (certainly aware of their superficial allegations) have tried to find the ultimate proof: the supposed hooked nose of the mask worn by the DJ imitating Macron. First of all, this feature is not so obvious, and if it were, it would simply be a representation of the Greek profile of Emmanuel Macron, which all cartoonists like to represent.
These so-called heralds of freedom of expression (when they please) are not unaware that the essence of caricature is the exaggeration of physical characteristics. Dances, like characters of the buffoon type, have also always been part of the repertoire of collective action.
The allegations even spilled over into some media outlets, jumping at the chance to flood their morning show. As in the RTL Grand Jury on Monday morning, where one of the journalists, like a prosecutor, asked the National Secretary of the Greens: ” Do you understand that some people might have been shocked to see you dancing like that with another politician? ».
But how can we attribute such ignominious intentions to politicians who have continued since October 7 to denounce any manifestation of anti-Semitism?
