Davos and the Global Movement
to Stop Gender Ideology
NEW YORK, January 31 (C-Fam) Argentinian President Javier Milei shocked global leaders at the World Economic Forum when he announced the downfall of the woke, gender-ideology, and abortion agendas. He announced new alliances, including with the Trump administration, that seek to “remove this abhorrent ideology from our culture, our institutions, and our laws.”
“What once seemed like the absolute global hegemony of the woke left in politics and educational institutions, in the media, in supranational organizations, or even in forums like Davos, has begun to crumble,” said Milei.
In his 30-minute speech, the Argentinian President denounced to the LGBT agenda and “the idea that women are men and men are women simply based on self-perception” and said that “in its most extreme forms, gender ideology is outright child abuse. They are pedophiles. “
Milei lamented the “scandalous experiments “of sex-change surgeries and cross-hormone therapies for minors flagging that “healthy children are being irreversibly harmed through hormone treatments and mutilation.”
Despite recognizing the pervasiveness of leftist agendas, Milei expressed great optimism for the future, saying that he has “found allies in this fight for the ideas of freedom in every corner of the world.”
Milei listed Italy’s Prime Minister Georgia Meloni, El Salvador President Nayib Bukele, Prime Minister of Hungary, Viktor Orbán, and U.S. President Donald Trump, among others, as allies in the fight against wokeism, “a great epidemic of our time that must be cured.”
“It is our moral duty and our historical responsibility to dismantle the ideological edifice of sickly wokeism,” said Milei.
In his virtual address to the World Economic Forum, Donald Trump, discussed his administration’s mandate to tear down DEI policies, which he called “absolute nonsense.” He also said that he has “made it an official policy of the United States that there are only two genders, male and female.”
Trump said transgender surgeries “will occur very rarely” and promised that biological men will be barred from competing in women’s sports. Trump mentioned his recent executive order stopping “all government censorship,” claiming that the US government will no longer “label the speech of our own citizens as misinformation or disinformation.”
At the United Nations, the US has rejoined the Geneva Consensus Declaration (GCD), a coalition of UN member states that oppose the imposition of gender ideology and the abortion agenda within the multilateral fora. GSD countries often face pressures from the EU, Canada, and Australia, among others, to liberalize their abortion laws and to embrace a progressive vision of human sexuality, even when such a vision conflicts with their culture and religion.
During the last session of the UN General Assembly, Western governments insisted that traditional countries welcome controversial gender and abortion-related terminologies in UN resolutions and, when traditional countries resisted, they labeled them “anti-rights.” In response, dozens of UN member states, including Egypt, Russia, Argentina, and Nigeria delivered statements refuting this imposition of progressive values and criticizing rich countries’ attempt to sidetrack pressing humanitarian resolutions in favor of the rights of “sexual minorities.”
The UN Secretariat and UN agencies, increasingly concerned about the resistance to progressive social values, called for a systematic increase in advocacy and gender mainstreaming to push back against the kind of “right-wing” movement promoted by Milei and Trump.
