At a time when submission is called “virtue” and fear “prudence,” Sydney Sweeney's simple frankness serves as an act of insurrection

 

Sydney Sweeney, Javier Milei, Charlie Kirk, Cristiano Ronaldo… Faced with wokism, they are no longer apologizing for being free.

In the magazine Causeur, Nicolas Conquer writes about celebrities' new-found courage, with the hope that it will spread to France. The ROF spokesman goes on to make several religious comparisons about the would-be atheists, echoing Kurt Schlichter's observation that "Leftists … are in the grips of a ridiculous pagan religion and all its tenets." (Merci pour le post Instapundit, Sarah.)

These idols are all guilty of the same crime: refusing to apologize for being free. At a time when submission is called “virtue” and fear “prudence,” their simple frankness serves as an act of insurrection. What if, in turn, we all stopped apologizing for being free? 

At first glance, everything seems to set them apart: a Hollywood actress, an eccentric Argentinian economist, a conservative American commentator, and a soccer legend… 

They share a common choice: honesty over submission. Freely and simply, they choose to say what they think and accept the consequences. … 

Showbiz is less entertainment than a pastoral drama. So, seeing idols rebel against the conformism of the masses is quite an event! … 

In French companies where “Diversity, Equity, Inclusion” training programs serve as a religious confession, in our schools where LGBT propaganda replaces knowledge, in our media where objectivity is reduced to reciting the progressive catechism. Courage isn't reserved for presidents or celebrities: it's measured by the ability to say “no” when everyone else is saying “Amen” in inclusive language! Today's world rewards emotion, not conviction. It admires those who give in, not those who stand firm.
