Every day, a subject to castigate Muslims, present them as dangerous, separatist. »»

While Bourdin asks him: “Why suggest that all Muslims are Islamists?” », Aymeric Caron reacts laughing, before answering: “But it is you who will answer me. It’s certainly not me. It is certainly not my political training. »»

Bourdin accuses him of wrongly using the term Islamophobia: “You assimilate the extremists to the Muslims who calmly practice their religion”, said the journalist.

It was daring. »» An exchange during which the rebellious deputy has clearly highlighted what he considers a dangerous and dehumanizing media drift.
