Rather, he speaks out against an infinite lengthening of the life, after having exposed some thoughts on the interest of the leaders and the companies in that people live long, according to their state of health.
However, the economist does not plead for generalized euthanasia. They appear in a 1981 interview book, l’Avenir de la vie (Seghers editions) in which Jacques Attali is interviewed by journalist Michel Salomon. Only two sentences are authentic and indeed emanate from Jacques Attali: the one on the cost of the sixty-year-olds to the society cited above, and another according to which “it is much better that the human machine stops suddenly rather than deteriorating. This call for the reduction of the world population is apocryphal. In that case, the viral Facebook text included a few brief sentences from Attali’s interview, but the majority of the passage (including the parts about a pandemic) were fabricated. That fake quote supposedly came from an interview published by journalist Michel Salomon in his 1981 book “l’Avenir de La Vie” or “The Future of Life.” This is not the first time Attali has been accused of supporting euthanasia, and it is not the first time that a false, misleading, or misattributed quote has been offered as evidence for this accusation.ĬheckNews, the fact-checking arm of the French newspaper Liberation, wrote about a similar fake quote that was circulated in 2017. They will go to the slaughterhouse alone. The selection of idiots will therefore be done by itself. We will have taken care of having panned the treatment, a treatment that will be the solution. The stupid will believe in it and ask to be treated. We get rid of them by making them believe it is for their own good… we will find or cause something, a pandemic targeting certain people, a real economic crisis or not, a virus affecting the old or the elderly, it doesn’t matter, the weak and the fearful will succumb to it. The future will be about finding a way to reduce the population … of course, we will not be able to execute people or build camps. In fact, we found no mention of a pandemic in this book.
This quote (reproduced below) does not appear anywhere in Attali’s memoir “Verbatim,” which reproduces various conversations between Mitterrand and other world leaders. This quote, which seems to suggest that a human-made pandemic would kill old people while a nefarious vaccination would kill stupid people, was not written by Attali. In May 2021, many English-language social media users encountered a quote ostensibly written by Jacques Attali, a French economist who served as a counselor to President François Mitterrand from 1981 to 1991, in which he supported the mass killings of the “old” and “stupid” via a global pandemic:
