My brother is a cardiologist, making +300K euros/y in France.

That's why I skip companies asking for an unpaid take home assignment altogether. I have a job, responsibilities at my current job, it simply isn't worth my time.

The link you posted to support your claim demonstrates exactly the contrary: the person supporting that argument has been downvoted to oblivion until they saw fit to delete their account.

This is not the main thesis of the book though. I do not blame you because the article strawman hard on the book's opponents at the same time it does a poor job at extracting the actual thesis from the book.

No one says that French culture has been created at a discrete point in history, and since then never changed. This is the biggest strawman of this article. They wish their enemies were that stupid. In fact, it is known that France is a marvelous mix of celtic, latin and germanic influence. The criticism stems from the book's anachronisms and obvious Multikulti undertones. It defines France, not as an entity in itself, but as one that solely makes sense in its interaction with others. Nothing is French anymore, and the so-called french culture is just a collection of sophisticated anecdotes.

It's nothing more than a poor attempt at taking away whatever is left to the French: their sense of culture and history.

Yet another attempt at dismantling any sense of shared identity, and history of a European country. It has been the same strategies, used over and over since the 60s.

Zemmour is right, and what's more, him calling out that process has awakened a whole bunch of people (including myself) from the propaganda we have been subject to for decades in France. Giving the monster a name, and identifying his methods makes it so much easier to resist and fight back its attempts at dissolving our culture into the joyful globalism they so desperately want the french people to embrace.

In a couple years, the most eminent historians will tell you that there never was French people in France. In fact, there never was such a thing as France. The hexagon is just a geographical area in which different individual co-exist peacefully, and nothing more, not a culture, not a civilization, not a language. This sort of historical revisionism and the obvious agenda it serves will only further feed the identitarian right's narrative.

Deconstructionism has been deconstructed by Zemmour, Michéa and others. The pendulum has started swinging back, in the coming decades you will only see it accelerate.
