Infantilization

Mathieu Laine

Collection : La Cité

Release date : 21/01/2021

In this short essay, like a cry for freedom, Mathieu Laine criticizes this other virus: the bureaucratic, technocratic and centralizing fever that merely reveals the unhealthy propensity of the State to infantilize the people of France.

In these times of epidemic, why is France the only major democracy in the world to have required that we tick a box for every “short trip”, or to be issued a ticket?

Infantilization is this other virus that has been threatening and paralyzing us for decades, and probably even more... In these times of epidemic, why is France the only major democracy in the world to have required that we tick a box for every “short trip”, or to be issued a ticket?

Infantilization is this other virus that has been threatening and paralyzing us for decades, and probably even more so. Nourished in the midst of mistrust, it has flared up in the midst of an outbreak. Travel certificates, concealing “non-essential” products, closing of bookshops, etc. There is no need to oppose the primacy of Life to denounce this series of centralized and technocratic actions, which ended up, “for our own good,” by awakening King Ubu. Next, we will have to tackle this evil that is consuming us. To really put an end to it. Because by treating us like children or incompetents, we unlearn freedom. And one digs, although with good intent, the grave of a future that we must reclaim. This short essay, like a cry for freedom, is an invitation to be released from prison. To breathe at last. To recover these powers that have been taken from us. Let’s truly choose Life: let’s bet on Freedom. Before it is too late.
