It&#039;s the classic story of the straw and the beam, but elevated to nuclear power.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On one side, we have the US administration, which, in its latest national security document, worries about the &quot;end of European civilization.&quot; Coming from someone who, just a few years ago, inspired an assault on the heart of his own democracy on Capitol Hill, this sounds like an arsonist criticizing you for installing a fire suppression system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On the other hand, there&#039;s the &quot;Genuis&quot; of X. The man who transformed the global digital marketplace into a deregulated Wild West, where hate is engagement and the truth is optional. He calls the European Union\u2014born literally from the ashes of war to prevent new totalitarianisms\u2014the &quot;Fourth Reich.&quot;\u201c<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They call it psychological projection. I call it, technically, <strong>a giant asshole.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Death of Shame<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>What strikes me, as I toss and turn in bed trying to wake up fully, isn&#039;t so much the accusation itself. It&#039;s the complete lack of embarrassment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We live in the &quot;post-shame&quot; era. It doesn&#039;t matter if your pulpit is creaking or your social media has become an open-air cesspool: the important thing is to be the first to shout the most serious accusation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you accuse someone of being a dictator or a failure of civility, no one will have time to notice that you are dismantling civil rights or firing the moderators who are supposed to protect democracy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Waking up (for real!)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>I drew these cartoons half asleep, but perhaps it&#039;s precisely the slumber of reason that generates these monsters. Or perhaps the only way to stay sane is to laugh it off with a bitter smile, waiting for these (and many other...) human viruses to run their course.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The real challenge, however, isn&#039;t surviving their ravages. It&#039;s avoiding being infected by their hatred as we watch them. Because the greatest risk isn&#039;t the end of civilization. It&#039;s ending up resembling them... and becoming monsters ourselves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Between absurd dreams and delusional reality: two satirical cartoons on Trump, Musk, and the projection of guilt.
