LOOKS FUN: The Theme Park at the Heart of France’s Culture War.

In a historical theme park set among the wheat fields of rural western France, Viking boats and pianos emerge from ponds, and knights ride on horseback. Now France’s most popular theme park after Disneyland’s sites near Paris, it has opened an outpost in Spain and aims to build one in England soon.

But many in France hate the park, called the Puy du Fou.

Critics have called it a peddler of “far-right propaganda,” an accusation that has gained in resonance as ultraconservatives edge closer to power for the first time since World War II. The critics accuse it of weaponizing history to popularize the values of its founder, Philippe de Villiers, a former lawmaker who supports far-right politicians and has long campaigned against the European Union, Islam, gay marriage and immigration.

He recently wrote that the park is part of a larger “cultural battle” for the country’s soul, and that “cultural victories precede political victories.” But his son Nicolas, who has run the park since 2012, said his only ambition is “to create shows that make people love France,” adding, “For me, that is my only cultural battle.”

Is all the fun stuff “right wing” now? Sure seems like it.

KRUISER’S MORNING BRIEFING: The Left’s Favorite Minority — Quiet and Compliant. “Democrats want power. They want to tell you how to live your life, and you better not go against ‘the rules.’ That was as evident on Friday as it was in the 19th century. The plantation may be metaphorical now, but it’s alive and well.”

Sarah Anderson is filling in for Kruiser this morning.

CLIMATE CHANGE:

JUST IN: For the first time since satellite records began in 1966, no Atlantic hurricane has formed by Sept. 12.

HMM: The ‘Anti-AI’ Panic Is Led by…AI Companies. “What we are seeing is a massive, pretty obviously coordinated campaign by AI researchers, companies, NGOs, and politicians to strangle competition in an industry and, as I will show, save the financial bacon of the top AI companies that are vastly overextended financially because they have made contractual commitments that they simply have no prospect of paying for.”

That sounds right.

GOOD LORD: My mum wasn’t terminally ill – she needed help… We had 48 hours to stop Canada’s assisted-dying system but failed and days later she was given a lethal injection.

TRUE:

This woman was, in reality, amazingly coddled and spoiled. She was an RN with an even higher-earning husband, who got her a nanny (!) and was down to run family errands. Quack doctor friends wrote her costly prescriptions for everything imaginable, including some pretty hard and… https://t.co/xwbaqiuWlU

MORE “COME SEE THE VIOLENCE INHERENT IN THE LEFTISM”:

They didn’t even hide it.

A year after they murdered Charlie Kirk, an account asks “Who should get Kirked next?” and puts JD Vance on the list, right next to Scott Presler and Nick Shirley.

That’s not a joke. That’s a hit list with a question mark.

HIGHER EDUCATION BUBBLE UPDATE:

Brilliant post by Prof. @timurkuran. Yes, the bigger problem CMU needs to face is how this woman got hired in the first place. If I were president of CMU, I'd do an in-depth look at the Dept. of Modern Languages.

JOSH HAMMER: America Has Not Learned the Right Lessons From Charlie Kirk’s Murder. “The assassination of Charlie Kirk — like the attempts on President Donald Trump’s life and the cold-blooded killing of UnitedHealth CEO Brian Thompson — was welcomed with glee by many on the far Left. It was a grisly reminder of the leftist violent streak that goes back as far as the guillotine of revolutionary France.”

And that's why I will Vote Red up and down the ballot in November

I want to position him for as much success as possible during his final two years

ROBERT SPENCER: What Happens When We Elect People Who Hate America to Congress? This. “Yeah, elections sure do have consequences. Given the moribund state of the Republican Party in New York City, two socialists, Darializa Avila-Chevalier and Claire Valdez, are virtually certain to enter the House of Representatives next January, and they’re already excitedly making plans for the damage they’re going to do to the nation’s largest city, and the nation as a whole, once they get there.”
