Kid Rock has Bill Maher’s audience hanging on every word as he delivers a surprisingly thorough takedown of Abdul El-Sayed. Bill Maher tried to interject. Kid Rock didn’t let him. KID ROCK: “Can I tell you about Abdul El-Sayed? ... He wrote an op-ed in college supporting the Egyptian president, who was absolutely with the Muslim Brotherhood, and even called on him to purge the police and the media.” “If that’s not enough for you, in the last debate in Michigan with his candidate, Mike Rogers, they were asked point blank: ‘Who is a bigger threat to America, Iran or Israel?’ Mike Rogers: Iran. Abdul — asked him twice, couldn’t answer the question.” “If that’s not enough for you, throw a big helping of socialism on top. And people talk about assimilation too all the time, right? This man very much is assimilated. Good education, well-spoken, even a good-looking guy.” “You know who else assimilated very well? ... The Fort Hood shooter... So it scares the hell out of me, this Islamic extremism. Is he a wolf in sheep’s clothing, or is he just a wolf in wolf’s clothing?” CONTEXT: Kid Rock grew up picking apples on his family’s orchard in Romeo, Michigan, and got his start DJing house parties around Detroit, where people said the white kid “rocked” the turntables. That’s how he got his name. His Michigan roots run deep. He even teased a Senate run in 2017, and it’s clear he has no intention of letting someone like El-Sayed take over his home state without a fight.

I am speechless. Thomas Aquinas College just dropped a study on the rigor of the new SAT. It compares the 1980/87 test with 2026. The findings should terrify every parent and teacher... Vocabulary has collapsed. Old SAT: 70.6% of questions tested vocab. New SAT: 15%. The old test forced students to know a wide range of words through analogies, antonyms, and sentence completions. The new test abandoned that. Most vocab questions now just ask students to fill in one blank from context. Reading passages also got radically shorter (average ~97 words vs 300–340). The new test uses short expository passages and hands you the necessary background knowledge inside the text. The older tests leaned much more heavily on argumentative and persuasive writing, assumed far more historical, scientific, and cultural knowledge, and penalized students who lacked it. This is a redefinition of what "college readiness" means. If you believe that kids should develop rigorous vocabulary, be capable of sustained reading, and possess background knowledge, I have bad news for you. The SAT no longer measures these. If you want a future where children can actually read difficult texts and construct complex arguments, the SAT must be replaced now. This cannot go on.
We were concerned that the SAT has become a less reliable measure of student preparedness for a rigorous college curriculum. So, we commissioned a study from Johns Hopkins University. What does this study tell us about the state of higher education? The results are shocking. thaq.co/4iLThZ0

Joe Rogan is horrified as Steve Hilton reveals where the 330,000 migrant kids Biden lost actually ended up. ROGAN: “Holy f*ck!” HILTON: “The way Bobby puts it is that Becerra turned HHS into the largest child trafficking operation in history.” A caseworker told Hilton they were ordered to ignore obviously fake IDs and get the kids out the door as fast as possible. Their directive was “Speed over safety.” If something happens to the kids, so be it. One girl was put on a plane, handed off to three strange men, and forced to work 20 hours a day. ROGAN: “Oh my God, it’s shocking. That’s so evil.” The kids were given a hotline to call if they were in danger. The problem was getting anyone to answer. HILTON: “There were 65,000 unanswered calls to the hotline.” And the people who flagged it? “FIRED.” ROGAN: “It doesn’t even seem like it could be real.” When Bobby Kennedy Jr. previously described what happened to these kids, he called it a “huge, huge tragedy.” KENNEDY: “One guy pretended to be the parent of 42 children. We have no idea what happened to those kids.” “There was about 60 kids who were sent to one address. When we looked at that address, it was a container, a steel container in the middle of a parking lot.” “A lot of them were sent to work at slaughterhouses and picking fruits in the fields. They were slaves.” “It’s a huge, huge tragedy. My agency [under Biden] was the single biggest child trafficker in the world.” And now Xavier Becerra, the man who presided over all of it, wants to be governor of California. Steve Hilton is running against him.

Two days ago I wrote about why I bought $SPCX and why I think it could be a $3–4 TRILLION company by 2030–2031. Then two filings dropped in 48 hours and I had to redo my math. Now try to follow along and I’ll explain what changes (I think my SUPER INTELLIGENCE target might be too LOW). Most people think SpaceX's AI business is Grok and a lot of hype. But the real business right now is renting computing power to the biggest AI labs in the world. But let’s look at the numbers; > $ANT IPO filing: up to $120.5B of SpaceX compute through 2029 > That's $3.1B PER MONTH once all capacity is delivered, expected by year-end > SpaceX's original disclosure was $1.25B per month. That's roughly 2.5x bigger > $GOOG: $920M per month through June 2029, for ~110,000 $NVDA GPUs > Apollo: a $40B GPU lease, the largest committed GPU financing ever What's interesting to me is the size. Why? At full speed, Anthropic alone would pay SpaceX $9.3B per quarter. The ENTIRE Super Intelligence segment did $7.56B in Q3. That's ONE customer bigger than the whole segment was three months ago. And it adds up. Anthropic + Google alone annualize to $48B. That's roughly 27%–32% of my 2030–2031 target, from just TWO contracts. Here's the catch: those contracts are NOT locked in forever. Anthropic can walk away on 90 days' notice once the initial periods end in early 2027. Google can do the same after December 31st. And one unnamed customer was already 34.5% of SpaceX's Q3 revenue. Okay so let's talk about my SUPER INTELLIGENCE target again. My target was $150B–$180B ANNUAL REVENUE by 2030–2031. From a Q3 run rate of $30B (Q3 × 4), that's roughly 38%–43% growth a year over five years. But SpaceX guided Q1 2027 revenue at $33B–$37B. Starlink and launch did $7B in Q3. Even if they grow to $8B, my rough math says the AI side would be doing $25B–$30B per quarter. That's approximately $100B–$120B annualized, ONE quarter from now. So you're telling me AI could be at a $100B+ run rate by early 2027 and I need four more years to get to $150B? I'm starting to think I was too conservative. Now you might be asking: HOW do you even pay for something this BIG!? Here’s how; @elonmusk said the 200+ neoclouds are going to see "guppy-level death and consolidation". Harsh, but look at the contrast. SpaceX just got $40B led by Apollo and $GS, with BlackRock and KKR-advised accounts anchoring it, to lease Nvidia's next-gen Vera Rubin chips. Fitch said its BBB+ rating doesn't change. And the CFO says they're seeing less than one-year payback on this infrastructure. This is the moat: STARLINK PAYS FOR THE BUILD AND WALL STREET LENDS AGAINST IT. But I want you guys reading this to be clear about one thing, my thesis here is ASSUMING: > Anthropic actually reaches the full $3.1B per month by year-end > Neither Anthropic nor Google walks away when the exit windows open in 2027 > SpaceX keeps building on time: 1.7 GW at the end of September, 2.5–3 GW expected by December And here's what could completely destroy my thesis; > CONCENTRATION: At full speed, Anthropic alone could be 25%–28% of the Q1 2027 revenue guide. If they leave, roughly $37B of annual revenue walks out the door. Even Evercore is asking how dependent SpaceX is on a single tenant. > DURATION MISMATCH: The Apollo lease runs 5 years. The customer contracts can be cancelled on 90 days' notice from 2027. Fixed costs, flexible revenue. > CASH BURN: In nine months SpaceX generated $13.1B of operating cash and spent $48.1B on capex. Q4 capex alone is guided at $35B–$40B. If AI demand cools, that's a very expensive building with nobody inside. At $145, $SPCX trades 8% above its $135 IPO price and 35% below its high. I personally don't think the market is pricing this yet. My investment horizon doesn't change: 3–5 years MINIMUM. What I'm watching next is simple: does Anthropic hit the full run rate in December, and does SpaceX deliver its $33B–$37B Q1 guide? I'm going to end it off with this A BIG CUSTOMER IS A GIFT AND A RISK AT THE SAME TIME.

Dr. Jack Wolfson, Cardiologist: "The higher your Cholesterol, the longer you live... if you have low Cholesterol, be very afraid." "The worry over total Cholesterol & heart attack risk is a fallacy from the 60s & 70s." "Do not fear total Cholesterol, in fact for people older than 60, the higher the total Cholesterol, the longer they live." The Research Is Clear. The Higher Your LDL, The Longer You Live. LDL serves an important & vital purpose for vibrant health. LDL contains the antioxidants Vitamin E, CoQ10 & Carotenoids that kill off free radicals. This reduces inflammation & oxidative damage, which are the true causes of cardiovascular disease. LDL is a transport carrier molecule, is preventive of disease & crucial for our immune system. It is the carrier for all fat soluble vitamins A, D, E & K. Healthy Cholesterol Is Needed For A Thriving Life: Prevents dementia & cognitive decline. Protects against all cause mortality. Production of all steroid hormones. Necessary for muscles & bone density. Protective against stroke & heart disease. Important for lungs & airways. Building block of all cells & mitochondria. Absorption of Vitamins A, D, E & K. Critical for digestion & bile acids. Immune system protection against infections. Lowers risk of cancer & death. Lowers depression & suicide. Lowers stress, cortisol & anxiety. Protects against chemicals, toxins & heavy metals. A low carbohydrate diet prioritizing nutrient dense animal foods, eliminating harmful seed oils, sugar & processed foods provides the best healthy cholesterol profile. This approach keeps Triglycerides low & HDL high, which is one of the best Biomarkers for Cardiac health. TG/HDL ratio optimally should be less than 1.5

Scientists found a way to flush Alzheimer’s plaque out of the brain in minutes. Without any surgery and drugs. Your brain has a waste-clearance network called the glymphatic system. It flushes out toxic proteins and dead cells. But it only really activates during deep, slow-wave sleep. If you don't sleep, the trash piles up. Over time, that buildup leads to cognitive decline and Alzheimer's. Until today. Researchers just published a paper proving they can manually trigger this cleaning cycle. Without you ever going to sleep. They used 40.68 MHz ultrashort waves (USW) beamed non-invasively into the brain. Within 10 minutes, the brain's fluid flow rapidly accelerated. The waves artificially synchronized the neurons into a Delta state, the exact frequency of deep sleep. This forced the brain's water channels to open and start flushing out the system. They tested it on mice with traumatic brain injuries and Alzheimer's pathology. The brain swelling dropped. The toxic proteins were cleared out. Cognitive deficits actually improved. No surgery. No massive chemical interventions. Just a frequency.

One other thing about the American Color Revolution. I'm hearing a lot of very sober conservatives saying that there is no there there in the various videos from the @DataRepublican drops, and that these people are LARPers fantasizing about events that can never, ever happen in the USA. I have two rebuttals to that sentiment: 1. These are serious people. Ex-USAID employees. Admirals and generals. Ex-State Department. Ex-CIA. Big donors. While some of them may look like goofy LARPers on Zoom, IRL they are serious, highly credentialed leftists with skills, education and experience that should not be taken lightly. 2. Underestimate these people at your own peril. "They could never pull this off in the USA!" Oh really? Exhibit A that they absolutely could pull something this extreme off is how they crippled the Trump 45 Presidency with a totally fake, totally fabricated "Trump/Russia Collusion" hoax, a hoax that started at the Oval Office of Mr. Community Organizer himself, Barack Obama. Do not underestimate these plotters, please.

🚹🚹THE DEMOCRACY FILES, PART 1: THE PLAN 🚹 I am working on gathering all the documents. Now, here's something to understand about the "democracy" and protest ecosystem: almost nobody knows the 'grand plan' so to speak. They simply agree to play a role. For example, 99% of people breaking stuff on the streets believe they're doing it out of an organic uprising. They don't see that the police have been ordered to stand down. They don't see that legal services have already been arranged for them. They don't see that foundations are paying for their bonds. Similarly here, governors aren't participating in a pact to destroy the Constitution. Governors simply have agreed to push back on the Insurrection Act. The effect is the same: the governors end up playing a role in a grander plan. I call this "shared epistemology" in my book Unelected. Motivations differ, people rarely agree to the big evil supervillain framing, but incentives all converge in the same end goal. No Kings might not agree to explicitly tear down the Constitution, but they nonetheless work with DSA and will turn out millions of people if the right phone call is put in. Here is one articulation of the plan - and crucially, since then, they have put many NGOs in their places to execute their proper role at all levels when the time is right. Many more coming.

I’m French. I want to talk to Americans who are about to vote Democrat. Not to insult you. To warn you. I come from your future. In France we did everything your progressive politicians promise. Free healthcare, free college, generous welfare, strong unions, heavy regulation, high taxes on the rich, a state that takes care of everything. Public spending close to 57% of GDP, one of the highest on the planet. On paper, it’s the dream. Here’s what it looks like from the inside. France hasn’t passed a balanced budget since 1974. Our debt is above 3,300 billion euros. Interest on that debt is becoming one of the biggest items in the national budget. Our hospitals are collapsing despite record funding. Our schools rank lower every year. Young people with degrees can’t afford an apartment in the city they were born in. Our best engineers leave for London, Zurich and San Francisco. And the rich you wanted to tax? They left too, and took the jobs with them. The promise was protection. The result is stagnation. The worst part is that nobody in France voted for decline. Every single step sounded generous, compassionate, reasonable. One more program. One more regulation. One more tax to fund it. Each step alone makes sense. Fifty years of them, and you wake up in a country that can no longer build a nuclear plant on time or keep its streets safe. I love America because it’s the one place on earth where people still believe they can build something from nothing. I came to Silicon Valley as a self-taught kid and it changed my life. That spirit is the most precious thing your country has. Before you vote, ask yourself one question: is the program you’re voting for making America more like America, or more like France? Trust me. You don’t want to be France.
Je n'ai jamais Ă©tĂ© aussi optimiste. Pas malgrĂ© le chaos actuel, mais grĂące Ă  lui. Je vais vous expliquer pourquoi l'empire du mensonge construit par la gauche depuis cinquante ans va s'effondrer, et pourquoi ce n'est pas une opinion mais une question de physique. Tout commence avec un mouvement nĂ© sur X il y a quelques annĂ©es : l'effective accelerationism, ou e/acc. Au dĂ©part, c'est une idĂ©e presque thermodynamique. L'univers a une tendance de fond : la matiĂšre s'organise pour capter et dissiper l'Ă©nergie de plus en plus efficacement. Une cellule fait ça. Une forĂȘt fait ça. Une civilisation fait ça. Le marchĂ©, la technologie et le capital sont les formes les plus avancĂ©es de ce processus. Ce sont des machines Ă  transformer l'Ă©nergie en intelligence, en abondance, en complexitĂ©. La thĂšse e/acc est simple : il ne faut pas freiner cette dynamique, il faut l'embrasser. Plus d'Ă©nergie, plus de calcul, plus d'innovation, plus de croissance. Monter sur l'Ă©chelle de Kardashev au lieu de s'excuser d'exister. En face, il y a les « dĂ©cels » : ceux qui veulent ralentir, rĂ©guler, taxer, interdire, culpabiliser. Ceux qui voient le progrĂšs comme une menace Ă  contenir plutĂŽt qu'une force Ă  libĂ©rer. Mais il y a une dimension de l'accĂ©lĂ©ration dont presque personne ne parle. L'accĂ©lĂ©ration n'est pas seulement un moteur. C'est un filtre. Pensez Ă  n'importe quel organisme. Un corps humain en bonne santĂ© peut courir. Il accĂ©lĂšre, son cƓur pompe plus fort, ses muscles consomment plus d'oxygĂšne, et tout fonctionne parce que le systĂšme est bien conçu. Maintenant, prenez un corps malade. Des artĂšres bouchĂ©es, un cƓur fragile, des organes qui ne communiquent plus entre eux. Faites-le courir. Il ne va pas plus vite vers la santĂ©. Il va plus vite vers l'infarctus. L'accĂ©lĂ©ration ne corrige pas les dĂ©fauts d'un systĂšme. Elle les amplifie. Un systĂšme sain qui accĂ©lĂšre devient plus fort. Un systĂšme dysfonctionnel qui accĂ©lĂšre meurt plus vite. Et c'est exactement ce qui est en train d'arriver au projet que je vais appeler par son nom : le projet globalo-socialiste. Celui portĂ© par les dĂ©mocrates amĂ©ricains, par la technostructure de Bruxelles, par les entitĂ©s supranationales qui n'ont de comptes Ă  rendre Ă  personne, par un rĂ©seau d'ONG financĂ©es par l'argent public pour dicter la morale aux peuples qui les financent. Regardez ce que ce projet a produit. Des États obĂšses qui prĂ©lĂšvent plus de la moitiĂ© de la richesse produite et qui dĂ©livrent des services publics de plus en plus dĂ©gradĂ©s. Des Ă©coles qui n'apprennent plus Ă  lire mais qui apprennent Ă  culpabiliser. Des hĂŽpitaux Ă  bout de souffle malgrĂ© des budgets records. Une immigration massive sans aucune exigence d'assimilation, prĂ©sentĂ©e comme une chance par ceux qui n'en subissent jamais les consĂ©quences. Une dĂ©sindustrialisation organisĂ©e au nom d'une Ă©cologie punitive qui dĂ©localise la pollution en Chine et l'emploi avec. Des normes, des normes, et encore des normes, jusqu'Ă  ce qu'il devienne plus simple de crĂ©er une entreprise Ă  Austin qu'Ă  Lyon. Une justice qui excuse le coupable et soupçonne la victime. Une censure qui avance masquĂ©e sous le nom de « lutte contre la dĂ©sinformation ». Et une jeunesse Ă  qui l'on a expliquĂ© que son pays, son histoire et sa civilisation Ă©taient des crimes Ă  expier. Ce n'est pas un ensemble de bugs. C'est la conception elle-mĂȘme. Maintenant, changeons d'image. Voyez ce systĂšme comme un moteur. Un bon moteur, c'est de la prĂ©cision. Des piĂšces qui s'emboĂźtent, un minimum de frottements, une Ă©nergie qui se transforme en mouvement. Le marchĂ© libre, la propriĂ©tĂ©, la responsabilitĂ© individuelle, la monnaie saine : c'est ça, un moteur bien conçu. L'information circule par les prix, chaque erreur est sanctionnĂ©e, chaque bonne idĂ©e est rĂ©compensĂ©e. Le moteur socialiste, lui, est mal conçu dĂšs le dĂ©part. Il ne tourne pas sur la crĂ©ation de valeur mais sur sa redistribution. Il ne rĂ©compense pas la performance, il la taxe. Il ne laisse pas les erreurs mourir, il les subventionne. RĂ©sultat : ça frotte partout. Ça chauffe. Ça grince. Chaque piĂšce use la piĂšce d'Ă  cĂŽtĂ©. Et que font ceux qui pilotent ce moteur ? Au lieu de le reconcevoir, ils changent les piĂšces. En permanence. Une piĂšce cĂšde, on en remet une neuve. Encore une. Encore une. Ces piĂšces de rechange, vous les connaissez. Elles s'appellent la dette publique et la planche Ă  billets. La France a dĂ©passĂ© les 3 300 milliards d'euros de dette et n'a pas votĂ© un budget Ă  l'Ă©quilibre depuis le milieu des annĂ©es 70. Les États-Unis ont franchi les 37 000 milliards de dollars. Les banques centrales ont maintenu des taux Ă  zĂ©ro pendant des annĂ©es, imprimĂ© des montants que plus personne ne sait se reprĂ©senter, et quand l'inflation est arrivĂ©e, elles ont fait semblant d'ĂȘtre surprises. Milton Friedman l'avait pourtant dit il y a cinquante ans : l'inflation est toujours et partout un phĂ©nomĂšne monĂ©taire. Chaque crise, on rachĂšte du temps avec de l'argent qui n'existe pas. Chaque problĂšme structurel, on l'arrose de liquiditĂ©s pour masquer le bruit du moteur. Mais les frottements sont toujours lĂ . Ils s'accumulent. Et la facture des piĂšces de rechange finit par coĂ»ter plus cher que le moteur lui-mĂȘme : la charge de la dette devient l'un des premiers postes de dĂ©pense de l'État français. Pendant des dĂ©cennies, ce moteur mal conçu a pu tourner Ă  3 000 tours par minute. Lentement. Bruyamment. Mais il tournait. Le monde allait assez doucement pour que le bricolage permanent suffise Ă  masquer l'absurditĂ© de la conception. Et puis l'IA est arrivĂ©e. L'intelligence artificielle, c'est l'accĂ©lĂ©ration la plus brutale de l'histoire humaine. Ce qui prenait des annĂ©es prend des mois. Ce qui prenait des mois prend des jours. Des entreprises de dix personnes font ce que faisaient des entreprises de mille. Le capital, les talents et les idĂ©es se dĂ©placent Ă  la vitesse de la lumiĂšre vers les endroits oĂč ils sont bien traitĂ©s. L'IA vient de faire passer le moteur de 3 000 Ă  20 000 tours par minute. Posez-vous la question qu'un ingĂ©nieur se poserait. Que se passe-t-il quand on fait monter Ă  20 000 tours un moteur mal conçu, rafistolĂ© de partout, qui frotte Ă  chaque rotation ? Il explose. Pas parce que quelqu'un l'a sabotĂ©. Parce que la physique ne nĂ©gocie pas. Et c'est exactement ce que nous voyons en ce moment, sous nos yeux. L'insĂ©curitĂ© qui gagne des villes entiĂšres qui Ă©taient paisibles il y a vingt ans. Le conflit de Gaza importĂ© dans nos rues et instrumentalisĂ© par une gauche qui a troquĂ© l'ouvrier contre le clientĂ©lisme communautaire. La misĂšre qui revient dans un pays qui a pourtant un des taux de dĂ©pense publique les plus Ă©levĂ©s au monde. Des classes moyennes qui travaillent et n'arrivent plus Ă  se loger. Une France fracturĂ©e, oĂč l'on parle dĂ©sormais Ă  voix haute de risque de guerre civile. Ce ne sont pas des accidents. Ce ne sont pas des « crises » successives sans lien entre elles. Ce sont les piĂšces du moteur qui commencent Ă  voler. C'est la consĂ©quence logique de cinquante ans de socialisme international : un systĂšme qui a dĂ©truit la responsabilitĂ©, la frontiĂšre, la monnaie, l'Ă©cole et la fiertĂ©, et qui dĂ©couvre qu'Ă  haute vitesse, tout ce qui a Ă©tĂ© dĂ©truit ne peut plus ĂȘtre compensĂ© par une ligne de dette supplĂ©mentaire. Et c'est lĂ  que je deviens profondĂ©ment optimiste. Parce qu'une fois qu'on a compris ça, on comprend aussi que leur projet a une date de fin. Pas une date politique. Une date physique. Un systĂšme qui consomme plus qu'il ne produit, qui punit ceux qui crĂ©ent et rĂ©compense ceux qui dĂ©truisent, qui finance son prĂ©sent en hypothĂ©quant l'avenir de ses enfants, ne peut pas durer indĂ©finiment. Il n'est pas soutenable par construction. L'IA ne fait qu'avancer l'Ă©chĂ©ance. Le mensonge a besoin de lenteur pour survivre. Il a besoin que les consĂ©quences arrivent assez tard pour qu'on puisse accuser quelqu'un d'autre. Dans un monde Ă  20 000 tours, les consĂ©quences arrivent immĂ©diatement. Le mensonge n'a plus le temps de se cacher. Alors, que faire quand le moteur explose ? On en construit un nouveau. Et cette fois, on le conçoit correctement. Écoutez Elon Musk. Un homme qui a reconstruit l'industrie spatiale, la voiture Ă©lectrique et l'infrastructure satellite en partant d'un principe simple : revenir aux premiers principes. Ne pas demander « comment on a toujours fait », mais « qu'est-ce qui est physiquement vrai ». C'est exactement ce dont nos États ont besoin : arrĂȘter de rafistoler et repartir de la base. Écoutez Javier Milei. Un homme dont tout le monde se moquait, arrivĂ© Ă  la tĂȘte d'un pays ravagĂ© par un siĂšcle de pĂ©ronisme, et qui a pris la tronçonneuse au sens propre. MinistĂšres supprimĂ©s, dĂ©penses coupĂ©es, inflation Ă©crasĂ©e, excĂ©dent budgĂ©taire retrouvĂ©. Il a prouvĂ© une chose que la gauche jurait impossible : on peut dĂ©monter le moteur socialiste et le peuple peut le soutenir. Écoutez Milton Friedman. Relisez-le. Tout Ă©tait dĂ©jĂ  lĂ . La monnaie, la libertĂ© de choisir, la responsabilitĂ©, les effets pervers de l'intervention publique. Il disait que si l'on confiait le Sahara au gouvernement fĂ©dĂ©ral, il y aurait pĂ©nurie de sable en cinq ans. On a ri. On a confiĂ© le sable. On a eu la pĂ©nurie. Revenez Ă  une hiĂ©rarchie et au respect du beau. Une civilisation ne tient pas que sur des chiffres. Elle tient sur l'idĂ©e qu'il existe des choses supĂ©rieures Ă  d'autres. Que l'excellence vaut mieux que la mĂ©diocritĂ©. Que le mĂ©rite compte. Qu'une cathĂ©drale est plus belle qu'un parking. Que transmettre est un devoir et pas une oppression. Le relativisme a Ă©tĂ© l'arme culturelle de ce projet. Le retour du beau, du vrai et de l'exigence en sera l'antidote. Et enfin, faites le Nuremberg du communisme. Le nazisme a Ă©tĂ© jugĂ©, documentĂ©, enseignĂ©, et il est devenu moralement indĂ©fendable. Le communisme, avec ses dizaines de millions de morts, ses goulags, ses famines organisĂ©es et ses peuples rĂ©duits en esclavage, n'a jamais eu ce procĂšs. On peut encore porter un t-shirt du Che dans une universitĂ© sans que personne ne cille. Tant que ce procĂšs historique et moral n'aura pas eu lieu, l'idĂ©ologie continuera de muter et de revenir sous de nouveaux noms. Il faut nommer les crimes, les enseigner, honorer les victimes, et rendre cette idĂ©ologie aussi infrĂ©quentable que celle qu'elle prĂ©tendait combattre. Le monde qui vient sera plus rapide, plus exigeant et plus impitoyable avec les systĂšmes mal conçus. C'est une terrible nouvelle pour ceux qui ont vĂ©cu du mensonge. Et c'est la meilleure nouvelle de notre gĂ©nĂ©ration pour tous ceux qui veulent construire. Le moteur va exploser. À nous de dessiner le suivant.
