Néanmoins, nous souhaitons attirer votre attention sur les faits qui suivent. Lors de la Conférence sur la Dimension Humaine, organisée par l’OSCE à Varsovie les 28 et 29 septembre, des ONGs invitées ont publiquement demandé à la France d’arrêter de financer la FECRIS (Fédération Européenne des Centres de Recherche et d’Information sur les Sectes), une organisation-cadre qui regroupe des organisations « antisectes » à travers l’Europe et qui est principalement financée par la France.

Freedom of Expression, Hate Speech, and Religious Freedom: A Human Rights Perspective.

Hate speech is an ongoing problem in all societies, both online and offline. As history has shown, atrocity crimes are sparked by hate speech. A growing trend of
hatred and intolerance toward people who are perceived as different increases the potential to incite violence and severe human rights violations. Ethnic and religious
minorities, migrants, refugees, and others who are perceived as unwelcome are often targets of hate speech and discrimination.

ABOUT AN ODOXA SURVEY ON SO-CALLED ‘SECTARIAN DRIFTS’

The survey report is entitled: The French and the sectarian phenomenon. It is a questionnaire-survey administered through internet to a representative sample of 1,006 French people, on December 21 and 22, 2021, published on January 17, 2022. We did not have access to the questionnaire, but we can guess which questions were asked by reading the subtitles on the survey report. We do not know if they were direct questions with “yes/no/don’t know” answers, which are tainted by the phenomenon of acquiescence bias (overestimation of ‘yes’ answers that distort the results). We also do not know how much the survey cost.
