While it may seem obvious to some that there are Europeans of European origin who constitute an indigenous population that has inhabited Europe for millennia, there are many on the left who want to deny that these groups even exist. In an appearance on French television, French MEP Marion Maréchal defended the view that there are not only French people of French origin, but that they also have a right to be defended.

“I don’t understand why anyone would feel embarrassed to say that there are also French people of French origin. This doesn’t mean that there aren’t French people of other origins,” she said during her appearance on a BFMTV panel.

Referencing her own family, she said: “I’m talking about my great-grandparents. These French people are the ones who built France, through pain, tears and hardship. I come from a family of fishermen, farmers and farm workers. These were people who had 11 to 14 children. I have two great-grandfathers who were at Verdun in World War I. They have the right to exist, we have the right to respect them, we have the right to talk about them.”

Notably, she said that while other French people of foreign origin have had their own accomplishments, ethnic French people have “the right not to be systematically reduced to a people — I’m sorry to put it so crudely — of bastards, colonists, collaborators and slavers, who are told all day long that it was immigration that brought them civilization, and who are told to accept that they will be outnumbered and that their culture will disappear.”

The debate centers around whether groups like Germans, French, English, and others constitute ethnic groups or whether this term is entirely determined by a passport. For some, the question is whether these native groups actually even exist, with some leftist revisionists and far-left activists claiming they do not.

An important element of many left-wing ideologies — the promotion and protection of indigenous ethnic groups — would falter if they acknowledged that European peoples can also be categorized as “indigenous.” For these critics, acknowledging that White people in Europe may fall into this category would open up all uncomfortable narratives that the left does not want to entertain regarding mass immigration.

Many on the left claim instead that anyone with a passport can declare that they are German, French, or English from one day to the next, and that the argument can go no further. There simply are no native ethnic groups within these European nations, only passport holders.

What Maréchal posits is that there is a middle ground of sorts. While someone can obtain French citizenship, this does not mean they are an ethnic French person. Saying otherwise is a direct assault on the fact that ethnic Europeans do exist, they embody a people and culture that has sometimes existed for well over a thousand years, and these people deserve recognition and political representation.

She also notes that people who are “French” in France are routinely demonized, and told by proponents of multiculturalism that even if they do exist, they possess no culture worth preserving or celebrating.

“Because with the promotion of multiculturalism all day long, we explain that these [French] people, who are the bearers of this reference culture to which the others are supposed to assimilate, ultimately their culture in the midst of all the others is worth no more. And I say, that’s what I’m trying to embody in this story,” said the French MEP.

French far-left leader Mélenchon openly calls for Great Replacement in shock speech

Maréchal is in particular concerned about France Unbowed, the party led by, Jean-Luc Mélenchon, who she said has “an unquenchable hatred of the native French.”

Mélenchon has notably openly promoted the Great Replacement, saying: ““In our country, one person in four has a foreign grandparent. 40% of the population speaks at least two languages. We are destined to be a Creole nation and so much the better! May the young generation be the great replacement for the old generation.”

Maréchal points out what the ideological elite of the West do not want to admit, that in each European nation there is an indigenous people, who built up their respective countries century after century. They fought and died for their countries, worked in dire conditions at sea, on farms, and in factories. They bled, they wept, and they saw disaster and triumph.

Of course, there were “great minds” and artists of European ancestry who created architectural marvels, painted masterpieces, invented groundbreaking medicines, wrote literature that will live through the ages, and dreamed up many of the technological innovations that power the modern world. It is also true, the vast majority never reached such lofty heights, but collectively, these different European peoples built the nations that migrants across the world now want to live in, even while many continue to harbor resentment against these White Europeans.

It is also notable that Europe remains a bastion of human rights, even if there are still shortcomings, while many areas of the world still feature rampant abuse against women and children, patriarchies, rampant violence and corruption, and even millions of modern-day slaves. At the same time, Europe and the United States continue to fuel much of the world’s innovation. That does not mean that continents like Africa, which still feature extremely high poverty and despair, should be denigrated. However, it also means that European peoples can be proud of their culture, achievements, and what many consider to be the best societies in the world to live in, just as other peoples across the world are proud of their own cultures and people.

To deny that there are French people of French origin should be treated as a vulgar lie, along with similar claims about the rest of Europe, but instead, this belief is exactly what the ruling ideology demands. If these “European people” are even acknowledged, it is only in the most negative terms: colonialists, slavers, privileged, etc. Meanwhile, people who came to Europe just in the last decades, or even in just the last year, are celebrated by the left for their cultures, many of which indeed feature centuries of slavery, a lack of human rights, a lack of democracy, and hardline, anti-progressive regimes.
