Quotes from Renaud Camus

Stone is replaced by concrete, literature is replaced by journalism, journalism is replaced by information, man is replaced by woman, man and woman are replaced by robots, robots are replaced by cyborgs, and maybe humanity is replaced by post-humanity or trans humanity, i do think replacement is central to the modern society.

I think replacement is an esential gesture, a change of charachter, an exchange of charachter essential to our civilization, and replacement is ofcourse also the introduction of falsity in objects and also in ideas of men, replacement is the introduction of falsity, of imitation, of copying, and the social expression of global replacism is mass negationism.

It is most significant i think, that the word discrimination which for ages has been the very name of excellence, is now a bad thing, discrimination which used to be the supreme virtue, has now become the supreme crime, one should not discriminate, ofcourse i personaly think with all the past centuries of western culture that on should always discriminate.

The very essence of modernity is the fact that everything—and really everything—can be replaced by something else, which is absolutely monstrous

The first form of Negationism about the second world war and the gas chambers concerns a very few people in caves, contrary to that, mass negationism is negationism which concerns absolutely everybody and everyone, all the political parties, all information, all the medias and all the people, what is happening obviously is denial and if you say that it happens, you are taken to court, fighting negationism today takes you to court.

The simultaneous collapse of the religious and literary conceptions of the world have left society under the wrong impression that science was the ultimate judge of truth, rather than truth being the ultimate judge of science.

Il n'est pas très courant de voir un peuple durement opprimé accourir, tout juste libéré, chez son oppresseur, pour demeurer sous son administration ; il faut croire que la France, en fait, n'avait pas laissé sur l'autre rive de la Méditerranée un trop mauvais souvenir pour que ses ex-assujettis n'aient rien eu de plus pressé, à peine sa tutelle écartée, que de se précipiter sur son sol. Ou bien venaient-ils en conquérants ?

Comme si pendant le temps de notre vie, et moins encore, la France était en train de changer de peuple : on en voit un, on fait la sieste, c'en est un autre, ou plusieurs autres, et qui paraissent appartenir à d'autres rivages, à d'autres ciels, d'autres architectures, d'autres mœurs — c'est ce qu'ils semblent penser eux aussi.
