Even when I have disagreed with Macron, I have always respected Frances general belief in individual freedom. They helped America become what it was in your infancy, even sending you the Statue of Liberty (what an amazing structure really).
This opinion, is taken from various politicians in France and Macron himself is warning about importing American "social science theories".
'Out-of-control leftism' in US is a threat to FRANCE, politicians say
Politicians, prominent intellectuals, and academics in France have voiced concern that 'out-of-control leftism and cancel culture' from the United States is threatening French identity.
They are arguing that American ideas on race, gender, post-colonialism – especially those coming from U.S. universities – are undermining French society and are an attack on French heritage.
The collection of intellectuals arguing that France is being contaminated by the leftism of America was buoyed on last year after French President Emmanuel Macron appeared to side with them.
In a speech in October on the 'Fight against Separatism', Macron warned against leaving 'the intellectual debate to others' as he cautioned of the 'certain social science theories entirely imported from the United States'.
His education minister Jean-Michel Blanquer also warned in October that there is a 'battle to wage against an intellectual matrix from American universities'.
