The Molière Citations[1] initiative was created by a collaborative group of professionals from a variety of work and life experiences. The core group observes and comments on a wide variety of challenging organizational dynamics in many endeavors.
Molière Citations focus is on the unearned and unjustified citations and recognition of people who have either done nothing to deserve the kudos or have in actuality worked in opposition to the ideals which they purport to champion.
While the instant cases of citations and recognition thereof are based on genuine ridiculousness, stupidity, farcical behavior, prevarications, untruths, and outright lies, the commentary is in all cases satirical, albeit real. You might think of the Molière Citations as occupying the intersection of the popular "Darwin Awards" (for stupidity) and other online publications providing satirical commentary and political cartoons based on current events.
The Mission Statement of Molière Citations is set out in some detail on their website, and this is a perfect occasion to remind readers of this perspective.
Without limitation, a non-exclusive list of examples of the Mission of Molière Citations would include:
- Ridicule hypocrites
- Call out deliberate misnomers
- Draw invidious comparisons
- Disparage unworthy recipients of awards
- Deride public figures who are in need of a reality check
- Scoff
- Demand justice
- Invite Participation
Molière Celebrations[2] are awarded as a counterpoint to the ridicule for Citations. In reviewing news and related sites, they are often impressed by the positive actions undertaken by public figures. On reflection, and in the spirit of optimism, they are pleased to supplement satirical commentary with accolades for exemplary conduct.
