In MyMemeCards, the meme card game, “Pas à gauche, pas à droite. Au dessus.” is a common card of the Memes FR pack, number 2671 of the collection, and the 753rd best-known meme of its 3493 cards. Here is what the meme means, where it comes from, and how to get its card.
What does the “Pas à gauche, pas à droite. Au dessus.” meme mean?
The slogan plays on the familiar framing of French politics, which places every candidate on the left or on the right. It claims a position “above” that divide, with an almost spiritual tone. Online, the line is used ironically for any stance that pretends to rise above all camps, or to remix the poster with other grand promises.
Where does the “Pas à gauche, pas à droite. Au dessus.” meme come from?
Sylvain Durif, born on 23 August 1969 in Nantua, is a French video creator known by the nickname “cosmic Christ”. He drew media attention in 2012 in Bugarach, during the period of the end of the Maya calendar, when about 250 journalists came to the village. He tried to run in the 2017 presidential election but did not gather the 500 required sponsorships. According to press reports from late August 2026, he announced a bid for the 2027 election, hence the poster carrying this slogan, which spread quickly online.
