Alain Finkielkraut advocates “the virtue of fidelity”. “So I feel grateful for the benefits of modernity. Unlike progressives, however, I do not think that the beginning is necessarily barbarity, stupidity, harshness or obscurantism.he specifies in an interview given to MarianneTuesday December 31. But “How can man still be free, in a society cut off from all heritage, where indeterminacy reigns? »asks the philosopher.
“The two great figures of progressivism today are the migrant and the trans”then asserts Alain Finkielkraut. “The migrant affirms by his mere presence the equal dignity of people and denounces the injustice which consists of separating and preferring one another. It represents humanity against particularity”he explains. “With trans, the great movement of emancipation comes to an end. Thanks to him, freedom is no longer mortgaged by birth. This hypermodern hero realizes the fantasy of self-generation”deplores the intellectual.
