The perception of USA progressive ideology was cemented by France’s President Macron earlier this year. Macron lamented on how it spread out across the globe from the USA, and eventually made even the French general public more “racializing” of one another. This and more came out of the interview Macron gave to Elle magazine.

Now that sentiment is resurfacing, as Newsweek shares the cover of Le Spectacle Du Monde. Translated it says “The Suicide of America,” and it openly questions if America’s collapse was imminent based on the Biden administration’s recent gaffes in Afghanistan, the U.S. southern border, and elsewhere.

Panels throughout the days of the event hosted a wide variety of discussions. Members of France’s high society attended the event, including former Prime Minister Alain Juppé.

The big tech dynamic couldn’t be ignored by speakers. Pavel Fischer of the Czech Senate’s Foreign Affairs noted how troubling it was that Apple is willing to so easily capitulate to China’s censorship demands.
According to Newsweek, panels at the event raised concerns about social media platforms like Twitter and Facebook trending towards left-wing authoritarianism with their censorship guidelines.

“The two most toxic ideologies of the 20th century were Nazism and Marxism. In my opinion, Nazism was identity politics on steroids, and Marxism was an oppressor narrative on steroids.
