Argentina’s president Javier Milei told the World Economic Forum’s Davos summit that socialists are promoting population control and ‘the bloody abortion agenda’ since, they believe, human beings ‘damage the planet’
Wed Jan 17, 2024 – DAVOS, Switzerland (LifeSiteNews) — Argentine President Javier Milei has called out population control and the “bloody abortion agenda” during his speech at the World Economic Forum (WEF).
During his special address, Milei said that “another conflict presented by socialists is that of humans against nature, claiming that we human beings damage the planet which should be protected at all cost even going as far as advocating for population control mechanism or the bloody abortion agenda.”
“Unfortunately, these harmful ideas have taken a stronghold in our society. Neo-Marxists have managed to co-opt the common sense of the Western world, and this they have achieved by appropriating the media, culture, universities, and also international organizations. The latter case is the most serious one probably because these are institutions that have an enormous influence on the political and economic decisions of the countries that make up the multilateral organizations.”
“Fortunately, there are more and more of us who are daring to make our voices heard because we are seeing that if we don’t truly and decisively fight against these ideas, the only possible fate for us is to have increasing levels of state regulations, socialism, poverty, and less freedom and therefore having worse standards of living,” the Argentine President stated.
In his speech, the libertarian President offered a general critique of socialism and “collectivist ideas” and promoted capitalism as the only viable system that leads to prosperity.
“Today I’m here to tell you that the Western World is in danger, and it is in danger because those who are supposed to defend the values of the West are co-opted by a vision of the world that…leads to socialism and thereby to poverty,” he stated at the beginning of his talk.
“Unfortunately, in recent decades, motivated by some well-meaning individuals willing to help others, and others motivated by the wish to belong to a privileged caste, the main leaders of the Western World have abandoned the model of freedom for different versions of what we call collectivism.”
Milei described how socialists turned away from class struggle and instead applied Marxist ideas to other areas of life.
“Given the dismal failure of collectivist models and the undeniable advances in the Free World, socialists were forced to change their agenda,” he said. “They left behind class struggle based on the economic system and replaced this with other supposed conflicts which are just as harmful to life as a community and to economic growth.”
“The first of these new battles was the ridiculous and unnatural fight between man and women,” he stated. “Libertarianism already provides for equality of the sexes. The cornerstone of a creed said that all humans are created equal, that we all have the same unalienable right granted by the creator, including life, freedom, and ownership [property].”
“All of this radical feminist agenda has led to greater state intervention, to hinder the economic process, giving a job to bureaucrats who have not contributed anything to society; examples are Ministry of Women or international organizations devoted to promoting this agenda.”
Milei furthermore said that “today states don’t need to control the means of production to control every aspect of the lives of individuals. With tools such as printing money, debt, subsidies, controlling the interest rate, price controls, and regulations to correct the so-called market failure, they can control the lives and fates of millions of individuals.”
