Post Voir de nouveaux posts Conversation Europe 1 @Europe1 Nicolas Sarkozy en prison "C'est un choc pour des gens comme nous ! Nous ne sommes pas faits pour la prison, nous ne sommes pas des animaux, c'est terrible" réagit @JC_Darmon , ami de Nicolas Sarkozy, dans #PascalPraudEtVous @pascalpraud sur #Europe1 4:18 PM · 21 oct. 2025 · 27,2 k vues
Ce type de réaction dit absolument tout.
- « Nous », les puissants, ne pouvons tolérer d'aller en prison (& d'être soumis à la loi commune)
- Et donc il y a « eux », les « animaux », qui peuvent y aller.
Ce n'est pas anecdotique : C'est la clef des politiques pénales de ces dernières décennies.
Opinion: More than any other western European country, France is dominated by powerful billionaires paying relatively low taxes. Most voters agree that France should cut its deficit, and the majority says: the super-rich first. on.ft.com/4hedHHZ

Un peu perplexe de la façon dont les médias traitent l’info Sarko.
On parle de la condamnation, de la peine, du verdict, mais alors pour rappeler les faits qui lui sont reprochés y a plus personne.
Le sujet c’est pas “il va faire de la taule”, c’est “POURQUOI il va faire de la taule”

22.09.2025 23:04 — 👍 37 🔁 12 💬 2 📌 0Call for Papers: Special Issue of Feminist Legal Studies Feminist Responses to the Regression of Trans Rights: Strategies, Alliances, Hope Amidst continuing backlash against trans rights, recognition and inclusion, two recent decisions from the UK have substantially impacted not only trans people’s legal status but also legal and social narratives of sex, gender and identity. The narrative that trans inclusion has a chilling effect on the rights of others, particularly women, has been adopted uncritically by both the UK Supreme Court in For Women Scotland and the Office for Students in its finding that the University of Sussex’s trans-inclusion policy had a chilling effect on free speech. These cases highlight a backlash that has been ongoing for some time, and sparks debates and fear of what may lie in the near future for trans people and kin, as well as other gender-variant persons, not only in the UK, but across jurisdictions and in a global perspective. The discourse of the ‘gender critical’ movement is splintering both the feminist and LGBT+ movements globally, with some aligning politically with the Far- and Christian Right against trans rights, adopting their terminology of ‘gender ideology’ and potentially posing a wider threat to sexual and reproductive rights. While this a difficult situation for trans people, kin and allies, this special issue seeks to emphasise that legal battles – including battles (temporarily) lost – are also an opportunity to seek to reinforce old alliances and to form new ones, to find new legal frontiers and imaginaries, to reinforce the theoretical and methodological underpinnings of legal arguments as well as intergenerational memory of what feminist legal work is, has been and should be about. How, we ask, do these decisions (and those like them globally) reflect and reproduce structures of coloniality, heteronormativity and cisnormativity? What do these decisions add to critiques of legal feminism? What would be construct…
📣🏳️⚧️ Call for Papers
We are inviting papers for our special issue, “Feminist Responses to the Regression of Trans Rights: Strategies, Alliances, Hope.” The issue will be dedicated to trans-inclusive feminist legal analysis that addresses attacks on trans rights & lives.
