French Senator Claude Malhuret:

"Washington has become Nero’s court, with an incendiary emperor, submissive courtiers and a jester high on ketamine... We were at war with a dictator, we are now at war with a dictator backed by a traitor."

Journaliste: J’essaye de comprendre comment vous arrivez à la conclusion que la [politique de] diversité a qqc à voir avec ce crash.

Trump: J’ai du bon sens, ok? Et malheureusement beaucoup n’en ont pas.

Pas d’accord (mais on peut discuter). Aberkane n’aurait jamais eu l’écho médiatique qu’il a eu si il n’avait pas pu se prévaloir de 3 phd. Ce n’est pas suffisant mais ça lui a considérablement facilité la vie.
Le problème de ces gens n’est pas leurs diplômes, mais leur discours. Enlever un PhD à Abzrkane, ça flatte l’ego en mode « kikalaplugrosse », mais ça ne le combat pas. Au contraire, ça le renforce dans sa posture de « persécuté du système ». Je dis ça depuis des années, bien avant ce harcèlement.
Bien d’accord mais JDM ou Aberkane se servent de diplômes bidons pour s’imposer dans le champ médiatique. Cela a donc de l’importance dans le narratif de ces gens (même si ce n’est pas un critère suffisant)
