Hungary is a safe haven for conservatives + UK healthcare providers banned from saying "alcoholic" + parents file complaint after teacher twerked on student + MORE!
MANDATORY GENDER TRAINING FOR DRIVERS LICENSES
Spain’s General Directorate of Traffic (DGT) wants to push a radical leftist agenda onto drivers.
According to reports, they are proposing mandatory gender classes for anyone seeking to obtain or renew their driver's license.
The Ministry of the Interior has been leading the charge on this so-called "Study of road safety from a gender perspective", which has suggested incorporating mandatory gender modules in the process of obtaining a drivers license.
It seems that the Ministry of the Interior is taking cues from the leftist government in Argentina which has a "a mandatory course to obtain the National Driver's License with a program on equality values and the delegitimization of violence against women in driving vehicles”.
The course’s curriculum includes lectures on “gender, roles and stereotypes”, “gender identity”, “masulinities: patriarchy and heteronormativity”, and “femicides, transvesticides and hate crimes.”
Spain’s DGT also wants to "organize gender awareness workshops aimed at professionals from driving schools or educational centers with different permits.”
HUNGARY IS A SAFE HAVEN FOR CONSERVATIVES
Balázs Orbán, the political director of the Hungarian prime minister, recently gave a speech at the Heritage Foundation conference in Washington where he said Hungary has successfully transformed into an important safe haven for conservatives.
The Heritage Foundation conference is a key conservative think-tank in the US.
“You have to think about politics as if it was a fight in a war. And in these situations where I’m doing this strategic thinking, Heritage is the leading institution,” said Orbán.
Orbán, who was the only foreign speaker invited to the conference, highlighted the success of family policies in Hungary sharing some incredible results that have come from their approach.
“The father is a man, and the mother a woman,” said Orbán. “At this point, the debate in Hungary is over.”
He reported that the number of marriages in the country have doubled and the number of divorces has been slashed in half. Hungary's pro-family policies have also resulted in a 50% reduction in the number of abortions without any changes in legislation
UK HEALTHCARE PROVIDERS BANNED FROM SAYING “ALCOHOLIC” OR “SMOKER”
The UK healthcare decision-makers have made yet another outrageous move in their never-ending quest for political correctness. They have now banned the use of the word "alcoholic", claiming that it is too offensive.
In a recent guide published by the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence.
In a blatant attempt at controlling language they have also banned the use of the words "smoker" and "homeless person", as well as "men" and "women".
“You can usually use gender-neutral language if the population is broad. This means using ‘people’, ‘they’ and ‘them’ instead of ‘women’, ‘men’ and ‘his’ or ‘her’,” advised the guide.
Instead of saying “alcoholic” or “smoker” healthcare providers are encouraged to say “person who abuses alcohol” or “people who smoke.”
In response to the guidelines, Tory MP Nigel Mills called it “woke nonsense.“
“This is just woke nonsense. They should stop being so politically correct and instead look to do something useful to help the country,” said Mills.
PARENTS FILE COMPLAINT AFTER TEACHER TWERKS ON STUDENT
The parents of a 16-year-old boy from Essone, France have filed a complaint concerning “sexual touching” of a minor after they claim that a teacher twerked on their son during a classroom demonstration.
They claim that the teacher pushed him against a wall in the classroom and performed the sexually suggestive dance as students watched on.
Versailles Academy has said that it was aware of the situation and that the family has met with the school’s principal.
In response, the teacher called the complaint slander and an attempt at revenge.
For the time being, the teacher continues to teach the class.
BEING SENSITIVE TO BODY ODOURS MEANS YOU’RE RACIST
A recent study is claiming that having an aversion to body odours and bad smells is linked to racism.
The Karolinska Institute in Stockholm, Sweden concluded after examining 7,000 subjects from nine different countries that being sensitive to smells means you’re likely xenophobic.
“Individuals more easily disgusted by body odours are also more prone to having negative attitudes towards refugees,” wrote researchers.
“As in previous work prior to the Covid-19 pandemic, this relationship was partially explained by the perceived dissimilarity of the outgroup in norms relating to basic practices, such as food preparation and hygiene.”
Scientists called on further studies into the “sensory components” of racism.
“Our findings were highly generalisable across countries. The potential sensory components of prejudice should be investigated in more detail to understand the underlying mechanisms, and olfaction seems to be an important factor in disgust-associated behaviours and attitudes,” wrote researchers.
