Renaud Camus

Jean Renaud Gabriel Camus (; French:; born 10 August 1946) is a French author. Originally known in France as a gay writer, he later became the originator of the Great Replacement conspiracy theory circulated in the Western far-right which claims a global elite is colluding against the white population of Europe to replace them with non-European peoples.

Camus's writings on the "Great Replacement" have been translated on websites and used to promote the white genocide conspiracy theory. Camus has repeatedly condemned and publicly disavowed violent acts which have been perpetrated by terrorists inspired by his theories.
