HOW CAN A NORMAL SOCIETY TOLERATE SUCH BUFFOONERY? COMMENT UNE SOCIÉTÉ NORMALE PEUT ELLE TOLÉRER DE TELLES BOUFFONNERIES?
English version Certain actions currently taking place in Gabon drive you to exasperation. This is unfortunately the case with a bunch of clowns on social media, calling themselves the National Council of the Fang, who claimed to be meeting this Saturday with the mission of excommunicating a compatriot from this ethnic group for having made derogatory remarks about CBON. It is very clearly an announcement designed specifically to create controversy, stir up indignation, or draw laughs through absurdity. The poster reads "Conseils nation" (instead of Conseil national ) and "se réuni" (instead of se réunit ). These are the classic and almost systematic markers of amateur content hastily thrown together for social media. There is no recognized legal, customary, or republican body called the "National Council of the Fang Ethnic Group" that would have the power to banish a citizen from their ethnic affiliation. It is absolute nonsense that plays on the clich...
FROM KILIAN MBAPPÉ TO JASON ARDAY, THE DANGERS OF EXISTING AS BLACK IN THE PRESTIGIOUS WESTERN SPHERES! DE KILIAN MBAPPÉ À JASON ARDAY, LES PÉRILS D’EXISTER COMME NOIR DANS LES PRESTIGIEUSES SPHÈRES OCCIDENTALES!
English version The saga around the accusations against Jason Arday, that have now led to his death, captures a profound and often uncomfortable truth about the architecture of Western institutions. This blog would like to shift the focus away from the noise of what could be an individual scandal, and focus toward the structural mechanics of how race, knowledge, and belonging are policed in elite western spaces. Our reading of the Jason Arday case, and the broader experience of high-profile Black figures like Kylian Mbappé, highlights a critical asymmetry in how success and failure are assigned in the western world. Our reading of history teaches us that the European Enlightenment movement was never truly universal; it was historically and practically defined as white, male, and European. The creation of racial taxonomies was not merely an accidental byproduct of 18th-century science; it was the intellectual mechanism that allowed the era's thinkers to preach universal freedom and...
VERY SELECTIVE INDIGNATION! INDIGNATION TRÈS SÉLECTIVE!
English version The contrast is quite striking between the passivity observed yesterday—when a certain Bitome, an overzealous supporter of CBON, profusely insulted Albert Ondo-Ossa ( élang e ne w’ossi ) and his mother ( con de ta mère ), simply because the associate professor of economics had the audacity to criticize the frantic race into debt that CBON had embarked upon, and today's hyper-reactivity following remarks made by a Gabonese citizen from the diaspora against CBON. This perfectly illustrates how certain Gabonese react to criticism or invective. The sense of hypocrisy felt by this blog is all the more acute given that the public outcry we are witnessing this August 2026 is massive and institutionalized. Following the remarks made by this compatriot, the official reaction has been swift and severe: Government Intervention: The Minister of Communication, Germain Biahodjow, held a press briefing on August 12 to express the government's deep indignation over these ins...
