A first-person spoken monologue (YouTube video) in which the speaker uses personal anecdotes—a painful dentist visit and a photography incident at a children-filled theatre—to introduce the idea of a collective imagination shaping behavior and fear. The speaker contrasts cultural attitudes toward medicine, law, and adults interacting with children across France, England, China and Maghreb societies, then criticizes institutional handling of pedophilia in the UK (citing historical cases and child-exploitation scandals) and links reluctance to investigate bystanders to fears of being labelled racist.
Hello, my friends. So there you have it. I'm still alive. I went to the dentist yesterday. I found a French dentist in London that saved me the plane ticket. In fact, at times like these, at times like these, when your health is at risk, for example, are times when you can't cheat. So at that time, for example, I looked for a French dentist.
Do you understand?
It's funny, uh, there are times like when faced with death, you can't cheat either. In France, for example, if there's a bus accident which happens, 90% of the passengers are buried in other countries, because at the moment of death, at the moment when they're dead, uh, humans, if you like, recognize their true. Their true homeland somewhere. So it's true that these are things where it's very difficult to cheat. I was also thinking about our president when he had a stroke, about his health. He went to France to get treatment in a military hospital. So it's true that beyond speeches, because a speech can always be cheated, you can always lie about a speech, it's very easy. But when it comes to a certain number of things, it's very difficult to lie. In fact, you know, when I was at the dentist, I said to myself, I said to myself, I was in the waiting room, it was the afternoon, it was 5pm and I hadn't eaten since the day before. I had survived on water, only water, and I was in terrible pain. And I said to myself, deep down, a voice was telling me, please don't do the thing about the North African who faints at the dentist. And in fact, because you have to know that there is a collective imagination, the collective imagination plays a very important role among people. Ah, the Maghrebian, for example, knows that he should not have anything to do with the law and that he should not have anything to do with medicine. Those are the two classics, those are the two breasts through which your life goes to hell. If you have anything to do with the law or medicine in the Maghreb in general, it means that you are on a slippery slope, as they say. So it's true that we are always afraid of that. And even when we leave our countries, this fear remains, because it is very difficult to fight against the collective imagination that is generally rooted for generations. So, for example, when I was a medical student in France, I was in a department of outpatient surgery. That means people who arrive on foot from minor surgeries and then leave, you know, general surgery and all that, but they leave the same day. And in fact, we always ask for an escort with the People, because you don't want to leave people who have general anesthesia to drive and all that. It's not possible. And so what happens is that I had tried to do a sort of cultural study. And by visiting the rooms, I noticed that, for example, the French come with one person. Sometimes he comes alone, and then he leaves by taxi. And lots of people come alone. And when you go into a room, there's a North African, there are usually 15 people. You know, it's because the whole clan feels this desire to be there, because it's very serious. They're dealing with medicine, so they're always afraid that something might go wrong. There's always this idea. This idea. He wasn't the only one, huh? The Indians, for example, or others, I think, had similar fears because it was obvious that they also came in large numbers sometimes. So at the dentist, I was telling you that he gave me a few injections of anesthesia. So, two, three, four. I think I stopped counting after five or six, huh? Uh, he injected a lot. And it didn't hurt, technically. Honestly, for those who are afraid of the dentist, it didn't hurt at all because it honestly hurts less than toothache. So at the beginning. And what happened is that after a while, he started working. I started to feel cold. Uh, my shirt was wet. It was sticking to me. And then I felt like I couldn't feel anything anymore. And what happened is that I was telling myself, this voice always says, please, please don't do the North African thing that faints at the doctor's office. Just not that. And what happened is that after a while, he asked me. He asked me if I was okay. And then I managed to say yes. I managed to get a yes in anyway, you know. But he wasn't very convinced to say yes. Ten seconds later, he asked the same question again. And then I think I was trying, you know, in my head, I said yes, but I didn't even come out. And what happened was I heard him say to his assistant, open the window. Open the window. Then he opened the window, he reclined the seat, put my head down and everything. The classics. And, well, after a minute or two, I started to reconnect a little. He gave me sugar water and everything. And then, uh. And there you go. I fried a little bit of. I fried a little bit of color, right? Understand? So that's, uh. There you go. So now I'm still alive, right? Uh, I'm still alive. And then, uh, I'm happy. I've had to deal with medicine, and I'm here. Uh, in fact, one thing I wanted to tell you. The collective imagination. The collective imagination is very. Sometimes creates some weird things that we have trouble understanding. For example, when I moved here to England, I was surprised. I was surprised by something. I was surprised by the unhealthy relationship between adults and children. So I'll give you an example. Ah. I had just arrived, I met a theater troupe. Theater troupe. And then the guys, they ask me if I could photograph them. I like photography and all that, and I never turn down an opportunity to practice. So the theater is really nice because it's dark and everything. It's harder to photograph. But I was really interested in the challenge. If you like, I go to photograph them. So I come back in the evening, I'm in the theater, I photograph everything. It goes really well. And then at the end of the play, the scene is sent by children because there were a lot of children who were there. Children, young, teenagers and everything. They invade the stage, they start talking to the actors and all that. And as a photographer, it's true that this kind of scene is extraordinary because there's something happening, a meeting between the audience and the actors and everything on stage. It's great. So for me, it was really a special moment. I took a 200mm long lens and started taking pictures. That's all I did. Imagine saying goodbye to everyone. I got to the car park and the theater manager came running up and called out to me. Some parents, some people who were there had told her that someone was taking pictures of the children. That's it. And you have to know that here in England, when you're an adult and you interact with a child, no matter what kind of interaction you have with them, you're presumed to be a pedophile. In fact, that's all there is to it. If you talk to a child, you're interacting with a child. There's no reason why you would do it other than you're a pedophile. He doesn't see anything else. It's a bit like the law in China. China is an extremely selfish society. I was talking about people who have lived in China. They told me it's terrible. For example, in France or England, it's not done to walk past people who are waiting in a queue, for example, in a waiting line. It's not done in China. It happens. People come in, they jostle, and then they go back in. And it's normal. These extremely selfish societies. Well, there are more than a billion people. Maybe the fact that they're all on top of each other generally encourages this kind of behavior. And what happens is that they created a law that says that if, for example, you pick someone up on the road, for example, someone gets injured, falls off a ladder, or gets run over by a vehicle or something, and you pick them up or you help them, or you take them to the hospital. Well, there have been legal cases that have set precedents where the judge told the person who helped the injured person to get to the hospital. She said to him, well, in the end, if you helped him because you felt guilty, then you are the one who is responsible for the accident and you are the one who must compensate him. And the result is that we see these famous videos that come from China. We see people dying on the sidewalk or run over on the road and no one helps them. We even saw a two year old cat where a child was actually run over and no one is going to help. Many vehicles drove over it. Because if you like, every society has a certain number of benchmarks. In China, it's like that. In China, it's so selfish that if you help someone, you feel guilty. There's no other reason. Here in England, there's a very unhealthy relationship towards children. So that day I can tell you that I deleted my photos. I deleted them all. And I felt sick. I was disgusted, you know, because this woman who was in the parking lot talking to me for 45 minutes, I can tell you I hesitated. I hesitated. I didn't know what to do. Because, you know, it's a very serious accusation. She didn't tell me you're a pedophile. But the way she approached me, yes, you know, you've photographed children. You, you understand, you say, should I punch her in the face, I'll sum her up and then I'll at least go to court for assault and battery, which is already better than going for something else.
Uh, did you understand?
I, you understand I was completely, I was completely destabilized. That kind of thing is completely destabilizing. And what happened is that she let go of me after a while. She probably left because she must have sensed that I was Arab. So maybe she didn't want to be seen as racially motivated.
Do you understand?
Because what's happening today is I see a child fall to the ground. I don't help him. I look at him, I look, I stop. Uh, if his life is clearly threatened, I'm going to help him. But really, if I feel like there's a threat to his life, if he's just on the ground, coughing up blood. But the amount isn't enough for him to empty himself. I'm not going to touch him. I'm going to call the authorities and let it be. Uh, the other day, I. I was on the sidewalk. There was a bus coming. There was a child who had put his foot on the ground. I calculated the bus, the child, the bus, the child. He's going to run over it. He's not going to run over it. At one point, there was a very clear solution to run him over. In fact, it was mathematical. I grabbed the little bastard and I pulled him. Then I moved away and I left. But in fact, the gesture I made was already off. I normally don't do that. And it touches me because I come from a society. I mean, in our country, if a child falls over, you pick him up, you give him a little slap to wipe away the dust or stones that get stuck in his skin. You. You help him. I mean, it's normal. I fell over on my bike one day. I don't know if I was 8 or something like that. Some soldiers who were passing by, they stopped me, they helped me and all that. I mean, we have a normal relationship. In France, too, there is a normal relationship with children. Here, we have a completely perverse relationship. So there's something really weird that I'm going to tell you about this whole story. It's really weird because pedophilia here at the institutional level is something. I mean, it's a commonplace. It's like croissants. In France, for example, you can Google the guy. Jeremy Seville. Jeremy Seville was a TV comedian, a TV host, a notorious pedophile. For 40 years, everyone knew that he raped children, that he groped little girls in the BBC studio. Everyone knew he even had access to children's hospitals. He even had the key. He knew the key. And to the point that some medical staff, when he knew he was coming, would hide some children. So to tell you how well known it was, it means he didn't do it for one year, two years, or three, 40 years. He and many people around him did it. They were never bothered by the police, never in their life. However, there are many, many, many victims. So as you can see, the professional pedophile died in his bed. And there are a lot of associations and others that bore his name after his death and everything. Then they had to close because then the scandal broke, and then it splashed a lot of people. So every day in the English newspapers today, you have this or that personality. People 60, 70 years old like that, who are brought back and then because they had touched children in the 70s, 80s and so on.
Do you understand?
Because what happened is that at the time. Look at Bendit, how on TV at the time, he admitted very, very lightly that he did things with children. Why? Because, in fact, at the time, the left thought of legalizing pedophilia. In fact, at the time, it was on the way to being legalized. So people were starting blogs. Even those who were pedophiles felt like they were going to be strict. Let's say they felt progressive. They felt like they were a little ahead of the law. They said, well, in a year or two, it's going to legalize you anyway. So honestly, do you understand what I mean? That's a little bit like that. And that's what makes this society very strange. On the one hand, it creates this relationship. It creates this very unhealthy relationship between adults and children. And at the same time, notorious pedophiles on the street. There you have it. It's a little bit worse than pedophilia and racism. So that's worse. I mean, that's why, for example, we had Pakistanis who exploited thousands of children, children who were practically all white and came from generally broken families, families who lived on what we call benefits here. So on social assistance. England was very quickly deindustrialized. So entire industrial areas, people found themselves completely unemployed. So they're white, they're native English people, if you like, and they live in poverty. I avoid being socially conscious sometimes for three generations. I say a generation is 14 years old. You see little girls pushing strollers with a baby in them and all that. Usually it's the parents who encourage them to have children. The first one came so they could get money or they themselves so they could separate from their family, get separate social assistance and all that. In the end, it's all a mess. And then these children who live in precarious conditions, abandoned, there is no family authority and all that stuff were exploited by gangs of sexually exploited Pakistanis. I mean, they sold them, they threatened them, they raped them, all that. They also made money with them. And in the end, no one here dared to touch them because the few who dared to talk about it were called racists. And you have to know that racist here in this society is worse than pedophile. So all in all, you'd rather turn a blind eye to a pedophile than be accused of racism, you know? Well, it's weird. I'll never understand this country, really. I never fully understand it, but, hey, that's not how it is.
