    1. René Girard - Forum‏ @GirardForum May 7

      For some sharks at least, and that's even too much. I consider mimetic theory as a science but girardism as a snobbery : books, books, books, while poor people are suffering and environment is being rapidly destroyed. A new kind of subtile hypocrisy and vainglory, sometimes.

      In my own family, an entrepreneur. He has always been interested in neurosciences, then in mimetic theory, but to sell stuff and to manipulate people, not to be a better person !!!

      Many entrepreneurs and investors come to Mimetic Theory through Thiel. Are you anti-capitalist? Are entrepreneurs (capitalists) evil? Anti-technology? Girard himself talks of how entrepreneurs are often scapegoats of society, evil men who only care about the $$$

      Replying to @Ahimsa_Satya_

      I'm not interested in capitalism but in its (many and actual) crisis. I think that economic crisis are mimetic crisis : financial ones, industrial ones, inequality growth. desire => rivalry => crisis => scapegoats becoming greed and ads => hyper concurrence => crisis => exclusion

      Yes, hyper-consumption, negative externalities, etc. but nevertheless scapegoating capitalism for all perceived economic ills may lead to a situation where a breakdown in supply chains causes famines, horrifying accidents, etc. Will the cute be worse than the disease or not?

      I think we are (and capitalism is) in a kind of Titanic : I don't dream to drown the boat but to make it change its way :-)))

      By disseminating knowledge of the mimetic mechanism, we hope to transmit Girard's thought. But there are two risks: — being the scapegoat for those who refuse reality — giving sharks one more tool to devour others.

      That is a good way of putting it. It is like a tool, a technology.

      And just like technology, it is a tool that can serve good as well as evil.

      Replying to @BrunoPerennou @Ahimsa_Satya_ @GirardForum

      Therefore, @GirardForum raises a fundamental question: is it "safe" to disseminate such a powerful tool to an audience of intellectuals, some of whom could use it for their own selfish purposes – just like @peterthiel ? What other ways would there be?

      I don’t know that I have many problems with @peterthiel although he may appear vindictive. I know he is not popular with the press. I don’t want to demonize anyone in particular although it is perfectly clear to me in advertising Girard is being read.

          I don't care about the press - in France they don't talk about Thiel. I am opposed to his vision of the future. And above all, I don't understand how he can claim to be a Christian. @peterthiel advertises Girard from a business and narcissistic perspective. Period.

          I don't know his thought at all, sorry.
