Unmournable Frenchies (reaction to Charlie Hebdo)

[Insula Dei]

Like John Dolan, dislike Teju Cole, agree about ridiculous Anglo-Saxon obsession with calling names and the unsavoury Frenchmen who do it, disagree that Menocchio was 'an obscure 16th-century Italian theologist' (unless you're quite liberal with your definition of 'obscure' and 'theologist').

I read the Cole article when it was published. This article flat-out lies about what Cole means by 'unmournable'. And about the tone and content of the Cole article in general, really.

Dolan doesn't really aim for factual accuracy or nuance, that's an essential part of his schtick.
