A Shocked Davos Crowd Hears the Truth

 Yesterday, we learned from a post by Monica Showalter at the American Thinker that Argentina's Milei rips into the 'bloody abortion agenda' to shocked crowd at Davos. I have been reluctant to comment on the ascendency of Milei because I simply don't believe in politicians. Every now and then, one comes along to surprise me. Milei is starting to be one of those. As a libertarian, one would think he would have a laissez faire attitude on abortion. But no, he actually called it murder! He defended it on libertarian grounds too!  And of course he is absolutely right. It is murder. Moreover, the Most High God ordered a number of cities destroyed, men, women, children and animals, because of the practice of sacrificing children to the fires of Molech. Abortion is no different.

It probably wasn't a surprise to the pampered swells and princelings of the World Economic Forum at Davos that Argentina's libertarian president, Javier Milei, would defend free markets and condemn socialism. He did it in spades, with his battle cry, "Long Live F***** Freedom."
What wasn't on their bingo cards, however, was that he also blasted abortion and population control, with a passion not seen since ... well, ever.
According to LifeSiteNews:
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.”

Milei's been passionate in the past about the right to life -- and on explicitly libertarian grounds -- that a woman has a right to control her own body all right -- and so does a genetically unique and separate baby, even at the earliest stages of life. He told that to Tucker Carlson a few months ago, calling abortion 'murder.'
I hope Milei can do what he has campaigned on, for Argentina needs him. We need more like him. I have never understood what is the appeal of Marxism or any other of the collectivist array: Socialism, Fascism, Communism, Progressivism, Fabianism - like the Devil himself these people change their names to suit. Their leaders always turn out to be men of small accomplishments unless one counts ruthlessness and brutality as "accomplishments." Please go read Showalter's post.
