BRUSSELS — "Dany, you have been so successful. But don't let yourself be manipulated by those far-left forces that would lead you to destroy everything that could arise from what you are creating."
Forty years later, those words on March 22, 1968, by Jean Baudrillard — then an assistant professor at Nanterre University — still sound right.
I may disappoint my supporters and those enticed by "The Revolution," but I'm not the leader of a revolution that allegedly occurred in 1968. Forget it: " '68" is over — buried under cobblestones, even if those cobblestones made history and triggered radical change in our societies! I was only the loudspeaker for a rebellion.
