The COVID-19 crisis led to the emergence of new social norms, creating tensions among citizens who did not adopt the same stances of compliance with health measures. A group of individuals contesting the measures taken during the health crisis developed within a polarized context. Based on interviews with leaders and active members of the movements opposing COVID measures, we analyzed their ideological discourse and behaviors. The participants in this study appear as committed individuals with a strong sense of injustice, adhering to various conspiracy theories. They evoke civil disobedience as an ideological framework and a mode of action, regardless of their initial political orientation. This polarized stance marks the early stages of the radicalization process.
This forty-third episode features an interview with Julie Tihon and Fabienne Glowacz.
