'France robbed of choice and sovereignty'

RT talks to the French writer an activist Alain Soral who is considered a controversial figure in his home country because he holds views which more often than not challenge the status quo and raises topics considered taboo.
RT: What is it that you dislike so much about the status quo in France that you feel compelled to go against?
Alain Soral: First of all, today, we can no longer believe in the masquerade of a political left and right. For a long time here in France, unlike Anglo-Saxon countries -- even Germany and the United States -- there was a real alternative in French politics, meaning there was the Communist Party and there was the whole movement of economic liberalism. There was real political diversity in France. But gradually, the so-called "left" eventually gravitated towards economic liberalism -- the right. The only differences between the left and the right were small variations in their positions on ethics and society. The best example is, right now, we have Francois Hollande and Nicolas Sarkozy. There's no real opposition between left and right. It doesn't exist. They are all roughly economic liberals, libertarians.
For France, the first step of visible liberalism is the European Union. There are those who submit to the EU, which means the end of borders, free movement of goods and capital, ideology of right and left, the ideology of miscegenation. This is the dominant ideology in France shared by left and right. The difference is only aesthetic. And then there are those who oppose this dominant ideology, who fight for the restoration of borders, the restoration of the nation; those who criticize the ideology of miscegenation, meaning to defend cultural identities and so on. The battle today is to resist globalism on economic and cultural fronts, etc. We have to show that the fight between left and right no longer exists. Today the two battling sides are the globalists and those resisting globalism.

What!? Identity is not a choice, it is who you are. If the French identity fades away, and by such claimed identity reveals itself to have been merely a delusion. Either you take what is yours and stop talking about all these bad men who oppress the common man, or you accept the position you are dealt.

[bcimnotu]

The french identity is dying because of diversity. I think the french people have a right to choose for themselves what kind of identity they want.
