💬 “We no longer have the right to ask questions today.”

To mark the release of issue #26 of the journal Front Populaire, Michel Onfray dissects conspiracy theories, which have become a veritable weapon of media and political warfare. From the bankruptcy of democratic debate to the psychology of belief, by way of the real influence of Masonic lodges, the excesses of the deep state, and the impact of artificial intelligence, he explains how methodical doubt has been hijacked in favor of conformity and why invective has now replaced rational argumentation.

On the agenda for this interview:

The weapon of disqualification: how the word "conspiracy theorist" has become the modern anathema used to silence all dissent
Psychology and neuroscience: why the brain prefers the comfort of a reassuring belief to the anxiety of doubt
Science and politics: the authoritarian drift of official discourse erected as absolute truth
Power networks and lodges: distinguishing the reality of influence groups from paranoid fantasies
The post-truth era: AI, deepfakes, and digital censorship: what future for critical thinking?
