Dans le manifeste "techno-optimiste" de Marc Andreessen, il y a une phrase qui m'a marqué :

"Our enemies are not bad people – but rather bad ideas."

Nos ennemis ne sont pas des mauvaises personnes. Ce sont des mauvaises idées.

Prenons Jancovici. L'homme est brillant, sincère, travailleur. Il ne se lève pas le matin en se disant qu'il va nuire à l'humanité. Mais l'idée qu'il porte la décroissance, le rationnement, la frugalité érigée en horizon civilisationnel est une idée profondément destructrice. Elle prend des esprits brillants et les transforme en commissaires politiques d'un futur appauvri.

Et le plus fascinant, c'est ce que cette idée fait aux gens qui l'adoptent.

Dans mon entourage, une grosse partie de mes amis est sur cette ligne décroissantiste, avec tout le package qui va avec. L'argent c'est mal mais ils en veulent. Il faut moins prendre l'avion mais ils rêvent de voyager partout. Il faut consommer moins mais ils ne renoncent à rien de ce qu'ils aiment vraiment.

Et tous ont un point commun : ils sont déprimés. L'un d'eux m'a même confié qu'il était sous antidépresseurs.

Ce n'est pas un hasard. C'est mécanique.

Quand tu crois que ton désir de vivre, de créer, de t'élever est moralement suspect tu te détruis de l'intérieur. Tu passes ta vie à t'excuser d'exister. Tu vis dans la dissonance permanente entre ce que ton corps veut (plus, mieux, plus loin) et ce que ton idéologie t'ordonne (moins, sobre, immobile).

D'où ma théorie :

Quand on pense quelque chose de fondamentalement faux décroissance, communisme, extrémisme religieux (de tout ordre) ce n'est qu'une question de temps avant que ça devienne vraiment destructeur.

D'abord pour soi. Puis pour les autres.

Les mauvaises idées tuent. Lentement chez ceux qui y croient, brutalement chez ceux qui les subissent.

C'est pour ça que la bataille des idées n'est pas un luxe d'intellectuel. C'est la bataille la plus importante de notre époque.

Seattle Mayor Regrets Starbucks Boycott says @WSJ @WSJopinion

"Pollster Scott Rasmussen’s Napolitan News Services reports on its new national polling:

Seattle Mayor Katie Wilson’s flippant remarks on the exodus of the wealthy from Seattle have recently been in the news.
Sixty-one percent of voters (61%) say it is bad for a state when wealthy individuals leave it to go to another state that has lower taxes."

[FBI Director Kash Patel @FBIDirectorKash]

🚨 This afternoon, a former managing assistant U.S. Attorney who supported Jack Smith’s politicized investigation of President Trump has been charged with stealing the confidential investigation documents.

Carmen Lineberger allegedly emailed the confidential material to her own personal email, disguising them as dessert recipes to conceal them from record searches.

Lineberger is charged with four felony counts in the indictment.

This FBI will not hesitate to bring to account those who violated the trust of the American public in an investigation that should’ve never been brought to begin with.

"If you’re going to do it, do it fully. Commit, finish, and find out who you really are."

– Matthew McConaughey

The Most Valuable 20 Minutes You'll Spend Today.

One conversation can change the direction of a man’s entire life.

Not because it motivates him for a day…

But because it forces him to see himself differently.

Matthew McConaughey speaks with the kind of wisdom every man eventually learns the hard way.

Peter Thiel reveals the uncomfortable rule behind why competition is for losers

"We think of capitalism and competition as synonyms. I believe they are antonyms."

"In business, all happy companies are different because they figured out something unique to do. And all unhappy companies are alike because they fail to escape the essential sameness that is competition."
