THE PROFESSIONALIZATION OF KOUNABELISM HARMS THE STATE! LA PROFESSIONNALISATION DU KOUNABELISME NUIT À L’ETAT!

Image
English version A state, a head of state, a governance surrounded by systematic applauders and courtisans often condemns itself to stagnation, even blindness. This is why the rejection of these professional applauders who pile around CBON is vital for the viability and development of Gabon. Flatterers create an echo chamber disconnected from reality. When a regime hears only praise, it becomes unable to perceive the real social emergencies, emerging crises or the flaws of its own system. Innovation and the improvement of public policies are born of questioning. If every decision is applauded in principle, the state loses its ability to correct itself and adapt. The unanimity of facade often masks intellectual paralysis. To truly move forward, a nation must rely on critical minds, strong counter-powers and an independent press. True loyalty to the state does not consist in flattering it, but in telling it the truth, even and especially when it disturbs. Historically, regimes that demand...

A COUNTRY THAT PROMOTES PURITY THROUGH PEDIGREE IS DOOMED TO FAILURE ! UN PAYS QUI PROMEUT LA PURETÉ PAR LE PEDIGRÉ EST VOUÉ À L’ÉCHEC !

Image
English version When a nation organizes itself around ethnic purity rather than shared values, merit, or collective progress, it creates systemic vulnerabilities that inevitably lead to its decline. A country that wants to truly advance fundamentally needs the contributions of its greatest minds; its innovators, artists, and intellectuals. When a state adopts exclusionary policies, such as restrictive nationality codes based on bloodline rather than contribution, it immediately alienates a massive portion of its population. This triggers a brain drain. The brightest individuals, finding themselves marginalized or legally diminished because of their background, will simply leave for societies that judge them by their capabilities rather than their pedigree. Innovation is not born in a vacuum; it requires the friction and collision of different perspectives, experiences, and ideas.   Homogeneous societies often struggle with groupthink. Without diverse viewpoints, problem-solving bec...

DO YOU KNOW WHAT PETRODOLLAR IS? SAVEZ VOUS CE QU’EST LE PÉTRODOLLAR ?

Image
English version The petrodollar system is an unofficial financial agreement that requires almost all countries in the world to use the US dollar to buy and sell oil, whether they like it or not. This system was born after the 1973 oil crash. The United States has made a historic agreement with Saudi Arabia: the Saudi kingdom agreed to sell its oil only in US dollars, and in exchange, the United States pledged to provide them with military protection and weapons. Since oil is essential to every country’s economy, everyone must source U.S. dollars to be able to buy it. Countries like Japan, for example, sell their products to the United States or buy U.S. debt to get dollars. They use these dollars to buy oil from countries like Saudi Arabia. Oil-producing countries end up with more dollars than they can spend locally. They therefore reinvest this surplus directly in the American economy by buying Treasury bonds, stocks, real estate or weapons. This is called the recycling of petrodollar...

A COUNTRY THAT WANTS TO MOVE FORWARD NEEDS ITS INTELLECTUALS! UN PAYS QUI VEUT AVANCER A BESOIN DE SES INTELLECTUELS!

Image
English version The politician manages the present and often thinks according to the preservation of their power. The intellectual, on the other hand, thinks in generations. Their role is not to please, but to analyze, criticize and deconstruct official narratives. When a government proposes a law (such as the one on the nationality we were talking about), the intellectual is the one who reads between the lines, anticipates the long-term consequences and alerts the people to potential excesses. Without them, a society is blind and easily seduces itself by demagogy or populism. Moving forward, yes, but to which destination? A country is not only built with roads, bridges or hospitals. It is first built on a vision: what kind of society do we want? What justice? What educational system? Sociologists, philosophers, economists, writers and jurists are the ones who conceptualize this vision. They provide the ideological and moral software that the state needs to function soundly. In our soc...
