Zemmour

What Dominique Pagani says

Dominique Pagani mentions Éric Zemmour as a figure in contemporary political debate, without ever reading his work. He first links him to the theme of the "great replacement," which he presents as a reactionary category that leads towards neo-fascism1. He also points out that Zemmour uses Clouscard according to a binary logic: since Clouscard criticises the leftists, he would supposedly be on Zemmour's side2. In his analyses of "left-washing," he observes that Zemmour, like those who answer him, deals only with societal questions and never with class struggle3. He adds that some of the people misled by the false left turn to him. He makes him the symbol of a withdrawal into oneself, opposed to Atlanticist globalisation4. He also criticises his indifference to the Muslim victims of Islamism, and notes that those who listen to him confuse Islam with the Arab world5. Finally, he names him alongside Le Pen.
