Migrant youths filmed gang rape of Belgian teen and posted videos on Snapchat; second gang rape in same city now revealed

The first victim was reportedly lured to this forest near Kortrijk by her migrant boyfriend before being set upon and gang-raped by his friends.

The 10 migrant minors accused of gang-raping a 14-year-old Belgian schoolgirl in the Flemish city of Kortrijk reportedly filmed the sexual assault on their smartphones and shared the images on the messaging platform Snapchat.

News of the heinous attack, believed to have taken place during the Easter holidays, first emerged in the Belgian press on Wednesday, but further facts have now come to light.

The victim’s 16-year-old boyfriend is understood to have repeatedly lured her to a forest in the Belgian province of Flanders to have sex with her, but upon arriving a gang of his friends — all reported by Het Nieuwsblad to be of immigrant origin — ambushed the girl and took turns assaulting her while one acted as a lookout.

She is understood to have been sexually abused by several of the participants and raped at least twice. The alleged offenses took place over three separate incidents between April 2 and April 6.

“The girl was loaned out and raped several times and in different ways,” a source told the Belgian newspaper.

The West Flanders public prosecutor’s office has confirmed an investigation is ongoing into the involvement of each suspect in the offenses.

Ten migrant minors have been arrested by the authorities, aged between 11 and 16. Four have been committed to house arrest while six were detained in a young offenders’ institute, although three have since been released on conditional bail after an initial court hearing on Wednesday.

The victim’s boyfriend remains in custody, his lawyer confirmed on Thursday.

“He understands that he is now locked up, but this is also traumatizing for him. This is also very difficult for his parents, wealthy people who have tried to give their son a good upbringing,” they told Belgian media.

“The parents don’t understand how this could happen. It also strikes me that suspects of such crimes are becoming younger and younger. That is very disturbing,” the lawyer added.

Another lawyer defending one of the suspects believed to be of Somali origin, expressed her horror at the circumstances surrounding the offenses, revealing she has never had to deal with a crime of this nature before.

“These are horrible facts. The question is how it is possible that these children have lost all sense of norms. What should we do with this? How are we going to solve this? It is a question that should be asked not only to the juvenile judge but also to society as a whole. I have not yet experienced such facts in my 15-year career,” lawyer Kelly Decaluwé said.

Kortrijk mayor Vincent Van Quickenborne expressed his shock at the case.

“The public prosecutor’s office does not allow me to say anything about the facts themselves, but I had been aware of the investigation for some time. These are crappy acts for which there are no words. I say that not only as a politician but also as a father of three young children,” he said.

A second gang rape has now come to light

However, since this initial incident, a second gang rape of another Belgian teen from the same city has been revealed.

Belgian media reported that on Friday evening, a 17-year-old Belgian girl was walking through Astridpark in Kortrijk with her boyfriend when she was attacked by three young men who pulled her into the bushes and forced her to perform oral sex on them.

The victim’s boyfriend tried but failed to prevent the attack; however, he did call the police who responded immediately and arrested the three suspects, an 18-year-old and two 26-year-olds.

The suspects denied the attack, insisting the sexual acts were consensual.

They, too, have been remanded in custody and had their detention extended by a month after an initial court hearing.

Norwegian Gender Diversity Activist Who Streamed Genital Mutilation Pornography Sentenced To LIFE In Prison

The man behind a lucrative extreme body modification website dedicated to streaming “grisly and gruesome” footage of castrations and limb amputations has been jailed for life with a minimum of 22 years. Marius Gustavson’s Eunuch Maker site, which operated on a pay-per-view subscription basis, had amassed over 22,000 registered users and brought in nearly £300,000 before it was shut down.

Court proceedings revealed horrific details of the body modification ring, which profited from explicit videos of men undergoing “dangerous, unnecessary and life-changing surgeries,” including the removal of male genitals.

The ringleader, Gustavson, 46, was personally involved in at least 30 procedures between 2017 and 2021 before he was arrested, and had kept dismembered body parts as ‘trophies’ in a freezer at his home.

When handing down the sentence, Judge Mark Lucraft said Gustavson had been the mastermind of a “large-scale,” “gruesome and grisly”, and “extremely dangerous” enterprise, which the judge described as “human butchery.”

Judge Lucraft said he was “entirely satisfied” that the motivation “was a mix of sexual gratification as well as financial reward.”

Gustavson’s legal defense argued on his behalf that he was suffering from body integrity disorder (BID) and was merely attempting to “put a smile on people’s faces” by helping those similarly afflicted.

Rashvinderjeet Panesar, defending Gustavson, said: “He had a desire to be the architect of his own body. His modification led him to feelings of empowerment. It appears at face value to be something that’s become an addiction for him.”

One victim, who spoke with Reduxx under the condition of anonymity, told of the psychological manipulation employed by Gustavson’s website, which included a hierarchical rewards system that “made it feel like a game.”

Men who had undergone a verified genital mutilation – whether removal of testicles, penis, or both – or limb amputation were awarded a profile badge that increased their status within the online community.

The victim who came forward presented his impact statement to the Old Bailey, and explained in terrifying detail being strapped down and administered testosterone blockers by Gustavson, which he said had the effect of altering his brain chemistry in a manner which made him “more pliable to manipulation” in the period leading up to the surgical sexual abuse.

“When I hear that people consented to these procedures I wonder what definition of consent they are going with, because I sure as hell did not consent to what happened to me that drug-fuelled night,” the victim said. “I would never have volunteered for castration by burdizzo.”

Also mentioned in the victim impact statement is Gustavson’s connections to “cutters,” amateur surgeons who castrate men for sexual gratification, operating in Berlin. One German man associated with Gustavson claimed that he castrated, or partially amputated the genitals of, eight men between July 2018 and March 2020, while on trial in 2021 for murder after one of his victims died.

“I experienced absolute terror bringing this matter to the police and pressing on with the formal complaint, while knowing I was putting myself on a direct collision course with Mr. Gustavson, his circle of acolytes, and his website where he was undoubted and unquestioned leader of some 20,000 users, and that a single message to his mailing list naming me as the reason for the closure of their playground could have had serious implications,” the unnamed victim said.

“I felt sick knowing that the police were going to watch the video of my castration, imagining the laughter amongst the officers, but I knew it had to be done to stop anyone from being coerced into something that they would go onto regret,” he added.

The victim, whose testimony was crucial to the case, also noted that NHS Scotland had uploaded a draft version of a document produced by the World Professional Association for Transgender Health (WPATH) to their official website which acknowledged “eunuch” as a gender identity.

In videos uploaded for profit to the Eunuch Maker site, men in fetish gear could be seen performing horrifying genital surgeries.

The document was later pulled from the site and an official apology was issued. However, as previously reported exclusively by Reduxx, the guidance written by leading figures at WPATH had been created in collaboration with another group of men who operated in an online forum hosting sadomasochistic castration and child abuse content.

Last December, Gustavson appeared at the Old Bailey Criminal Court in London via video link from HMP Belmarsh, where he has been detained during court proceedings, and admitted to charges of causing grievous bodily harm with intent.

Six other men appeared in court and admitted their roles in the body modification fetish group. Among them were Peter Wates, a retired former member of the Royal Society of Chemists, and Janus Atkin, who was training to become a veterinarian.

Separately, Gustavson also pleaded guilty to making and distributing two indecent videos of a child between January 2017 and January 2020. The anonymous source involved in the court case recalled the “wave of revulsion” he felt after an officer told him that among the sadomasochistic pornography found on Gustavson’s devices, there were also depictions of child sexual abuse.

The streaming genital mutilation media was part of a larger endeavor undertaken by a network of men who aided Gustavson and performed fetishistic amputations and other procedures for sexual gratification. Former nurses Nathaniel Arnold, 46, Jacob Crimi-Appleby, 23, and Damien Brynes, 36, assisted Gustavson with removing some of his own body parts, and have since been convicted.

Crimi-Appleby used his access to medical supplies in order to freeze Gustavson’s leg causing it to require amputation. Brynes removed his penis and Arnold facilitated the partial removal of one of Gustavson’s nipples. Arnold also admitted stealing lidocaine while working as nurse at Chelsea and Westminster Hospital between January 2016 and January 2022, and possession of extreme pornographic images.

Brynes, Arnold, and Crimi-Appleby have all admitted causing grievous bodily harm with intent. Shockingly, a video presented in court showed Byrnes cutting off Gustavson’s penis with a kitchen knife, while joking, “Well, that’s one off the bucket list.”

Gustavson, who identifies as a “nullo,” had advertised on a gay hookup app seeking assistance in becoming a eunuch before offering Byrnes, an escort, £500 to carry out the procedure at his his Haringey flat on February 18, 2017.

Gustavson referred to Byrnes as a “sexy, kinky helper” and, in the days leading up to the surgery, claimed to have performed similar operations on over 26 individuals, removing both their penis and testicles. Byrnes admitted to performing the castration for financial gain, and the video was shared on Gustavson’s website, which charged fees on a pay-per-view model.

In addition to the nurses, 66-year-old surgeon Peter Wates, referred to as Gustavson’s “right-hand man,” was said to have played a role in nine out of the 29 known procedures. He also admitted to conspiracy to commit grievous bodily harm.

Prosecutor Caroline Carberry told the court that “the nature and scale” of the “lucrative business in the dangerous, unnecessary and life-changing surgeries carried out by non-medically qualified individuals… is without precedent.”

“All of these individuals were active in the extreme body modification or mutilation scene and the consensual or mutilation of male genitalia,” Carberry added. “It is a remarkable feature of this case that the website was operating in plain sight – not on the dark web – accessible to anyone who stumbled upon it and had the inclination and means to pay to view the gruesome footage.”

He also kept removed genitalia such as testicles as “trophies” in at his Harringay home and “sold” body parts to others. According to court records, body parts were put up for auction online via a “buy it now” button. The youngest victim identified was 16 years old.

Prosecutor Carberry KC said there was “clear evidence” of cannibalism and that Gustavson had apparently created an “artfully arranged salad platter” of cooked testicles. Carberry showed the court images of body parts stored in plastic bags contained in Gustavson’s freezer and noted that “it wasn’t unusual for the excised genitalia to be kept by some of these defendants.”

Following his 2021 arrest, officers had discovered Gustavson’s own penis tucked away in a drawer at his home, where he had been keeping his amputated member for four years. However, “Gustavson wasn’t the only defendant to keep trophies from his surgeries,” prosecutor Carberry explained.

She also described a video call Gustavson conducted with one site user in Sweden wherein he instructed the man to “maim himself” by slicing off his testicles with a knife. Just three days later, Gustavson would then urge the man to remove his penis, as well.

Gustavson was initially arrested along with six other men in February 2022. Shortly after his arrest, he told The Independent in an interview that he had undergone an amateur orchiectomy himself and carried the operation out on 58 other men. He stated that he had his own genitals surgically removed because he wanted to “look like a Ken doll with nothing down there.”

The practice of removing the testicles or amputating the penis is linked to a male body modification fetish subculture known as “nullification,” and participants identify themselves as “nullos” or “smoothies.” While advertising his Eunuch Maker site and services online, Gustavson called himself Theo and described himself as a “happy nullo.”

Gustavson ran several social media accounts, using the handles @nullotheo@ampunullotheo@chubtheo, and @theo-eunuchmaker. His accounts on X were followed by men who identified as transgender, as well as those involved in chastity fetishism, eunuchdom, and nullification. On one account, he displayed a stylized “non-binary” pride flag in his header.

A website owned by Gustavson, eunuchmaker.co.uk, sold graphic videos of castrations and amputations. Registered in 2016, it also offered the option of paid monthly memberships for streaming videos of penectomies. Premium subscriptions included the option of a “free castration performed by the EunuchMaker.”

A registration form on the site listed possible “gender identities” based on sadomasochistic criteria. Among them were eunuch, nullo (nullification), and cutter, a euphemism for a person who performs male genital modification surgeries.

A registration form on the Eunuch Maker website lists sadomasochistic fetishes as ‘gender identities’

Promotions on his primary platform direct visitors to another URL owned by Gustavson, Eunuchmaker.info. Archived versions of the page redirect to yet another online community, the-em.com, which is cited in criminal charges filed October 21, 2020, in the U.S. state of Oklahoma against two men who participated in fetishistic genital surgeries.

Bobby Lee Allen and his partner Thomas Evan Gates were charged with conspiracy to commit an unlicensed surgery, maiming, and failure to bury a dead human member, and assault and battery with a dangerous weapon.

The two men, self-described ‘cannibals’, removed the testicles of a 28-year-old Virginia resident as part of an illegally conducted gender reassignment surgery. Afterwards, according to court records, Allen laughed and told the victim he intended to consume his amputated members.

Allen had claimed to have had 15 years of experience and several other patients lined up for future procedures. The victim further alleged that Allen boasted of leaving a man “open” to die after an operation. Allen and Gates had lured the man to their cabin by way of Gustavson’s Eunuch Maker’s website and forum.

In another grisly case involving Gustavson’s forum, an elderly Florida man was sentenced to three years in prison following a bloody botched home castration he performed and recorded on camera, apparently intending to broadcast the footage through the Eunuch Maker site. Gary Van Ryswyk, 76, performed the genital surgery in August 2019 on a male victim, then aged 53.

Despite the international coverage of the disturbing genital mutilation ring, media failed to note that Gustavson had been a prominent member of the LGBT activist community.

According to Gustavon’s LinkedIn profile, he was a volunteer and Senior Steward for London’s Pride organization between 2016 to 2019. His first Eunuch Maker site was registered in 2016, and in 2018, he started a film production company called Nullset.

Prior to his relocation to London in 2012, Gustavson was Chairman of the Board for the Buskerud chapter of transactivist lobbying group The Norwegian Organization for Sexual and Gender Diversity, now known as FRI. Gustavson was involved in a leadership position at the organization from 2001 through 2007. During this time, FRI went by the name ‘The National Association for Lesbian and Gay Liberation,’ or LLH.

In 2018, The Norwegian Organization for Sexual and Gender Diversity (FRI) successfully lobbied the World Health Organization to officially depathologize fetishism, sadomasochism, and fetishistic transvestitism by removing them from the 11th revision of the International Classifications of Diseases and Related Health Problems (ICD-11).

The initiative by LLH / FRI was called “Revise F65,” in reference to the classification category designated by the WHO’s ICD guidelines. Listed under “F65” in version 10 of the manual were “disorders of sexual preference:” fetishism, transvestic fetishism, sadomasochism, voyeurism, and pedophilia.

At a 2004 LLH / FRI convention, the Revise F65 mandate was explicitly expressed in the organization’s political platform. It was during this time that Gustavson served in a leadership position for the activist group.

“In addition to national work,” the campaign’s website states, “Revise F65 also have an international mandate to motivate other countries to remove their national versions of the SM/fetish ICD diagnoses.”

Germany: ‘If Gaza burns, Berlin burns!’ — Town hall set on fire by anti-Israel vandals

Firefighters were tackling a blaze in the early hours of Thursday morning at the Berlin-Tiergarten town hall in the German capital, believed to have been started by anti-Israel vandals.

Emergency services responded to a call made at 1:45 a.m. by a witness who heard glass shatter before a room adjacent to Jonasstraße erupted in flames. Two suspected perpetrators were then seen jumping down from scaffolding attached to the building and fleeing the scene.

Around 30 firetrucks attended the scene and extinguished the blaze; no injuries were reported.

An initial investigation found the fire was likely started by a Molotov cocktail being thrown through the broken window, leaving extensive damage to the targeted room and the hallway of the building while parts of the affected exterior wall crumbled due to the heat.

According to Bild, Several threatening messages had been scrawled on the sides of the building that read, “If Gaza burns, Berlin burns.” Others read “Free Hamas” and “Warning Berlin, we’ll burn it down.”

A spokeswoman for the Berlin police office revealed the investigation had been taken over by state security services, who are investigating intentional arson.

Pro-Palestine protests by far-left and Muslim activists have erupted across Europe following Israel’s retaliation for Hamas’ terror attack on Israeli soil on Oct. 7 last year.

On Wednesday, troubling scenes were witnessed in the Netherlands after an activist mob stormed the University of Amsterdam and demanded it cut all ties with Israeli institutions.

Significant damage was done to the university, and footage showing activists attacking people with planks of wood went viral on social media, causing Dutch conservative politician Geert Wilders to ask, “When did the Dutch people vote to let all those Jew-haters with sticks and beards in? Which election manifesto was that in? Why do we let them destroy the Netherlands?”

The protest was eventually dispersed by Dutch riot police, but activists then congregated on Rembrandtplein in the Dutch capital before further clashes with the authorities.

Austrian Greens’ Top Candidate Accused of Being Compulsive Liar

Lena Schilling, Facebook

It’s safe to say that the gods of politics have not been favoring European green parties during this campaign period. Not only is the Greens group expected to lose the most seats in the European Parliament after the election, but member parties around Europe have been caught up in some of the most embarrassing scandals as well, from sexual harassment to Russian spying.

The latest episode is currently unfolding in Austria, where a comprehensive investigation undertaken by the local daily Der Standard shed light on the Greens’ number one EU candidate, Lena Schilling, and her problematic relationship with the truth. While the party tries to downplay the allegations to soften the blow of the growing scandal, the police and court documents, confidential chats, as well as dozens of interviews with the victims of Schilling’s intentionally harmful lies tell a different story.

One document to open the rabbit hole

Schilling, a 23-year-old climate activist with no political experience, surprised Austria when the Greens put her, a non-party member, in first place on their EU candidate list. Her name alone was enough, apparently, as she previously worked for several NGOs and advocacy groups, led some of the loudest climate protest movements, and has been described by media as “perhaps the most politically active young woman in the country”—Austria’s very own Greta Thunberg.

However, Schilling’s road to Brussels might not be as smooth as it was to Instagram stardom. The story begins with a court sentence, dated April 12th, 2024, less than two months before the coming EU elections. The document, obtained by Der Standard, shows that Schilling had been served with a cease-and-desist order and forced to pay compensation of €20,000.

To make the story more colorful, the lawsuit in question was brought against her by a former best friend after Schilling claimed that the other woman’s husband beat her up so badly that she suffered a miscarriage. It was nothing but a lie, apparently, yet the Greens’ official statement tried to salvage the situation by saying Schilling only acted “out of concern for a friend,” but is ready to pay the compensation out of her own pocket to show that “she regrets” the harm done by the unfounded allegations.

“Just the tip of the iceberg”

It would have been all over if it was a one-time hiccup, but as you can guess, it wasn’t. The media investigation prompted by the sentence exposed that the wild story is really “just the tip of the iceberg,” as unnamed Green members who’ve known Schilling for some time phrased it.

Weeks of research and over 50 interviews with former friends, colleagues, and victims of her frequent slanders revealed that there are a great deal of people who have been hurt one way or another by Schilling’s compulsive lies. As Der Standard put it:

People who do not know each other and whom Schilling has met in different contexts almost unanimously tell of similar incidents: Schilling has a problematic relationship with the truth, plays people off against each other and leaves scorched earth in her wake.

Invented love affairs and harassment allegations

For one, Schilling has upturned the lives of several journalists and politicians with completely out-of-the-blue allegations, who, at least now, can feel vindicated by her downfall. 

For instance, she accused one of the top journalists at an undisclosed private media organization, with whom she had regular professional cooperation, of sexual harassment. The case went up to HR which immediately started an internal investigation, threatening the job and livelihood of the journalist. Luckily, when he handed over all his chats and messages with Schilling to HR, the investigation quickly concluded that the man was innocent. Asked for a comment by Der Standard, the company only said: “We don’t want to talk about that.”

In another case, Schilling allegedly invented an affair between her and a well-known television reporter. Fearing for his reputation, the reporter considered suing Schilling but decided not to, lest he attract even more attention. 

Most people who knew Schilling during her activist years, as well as from the student council she once chaired, also recounted some bad memories. They describe how she often played people against each other to cement her position without caring one bit for what she left behind. They also say she took advantage of the trust of younger activists to carefully cultivate an army of followers mesmerized by her charisma.

MP’s mystery resignation

Considering everything that came to light, it’s not surprising that Schilling might have even had a hand in the Austrian Greens’ only scandal these past years that ended with a resignation. In October 2023, the party announced that MP Clemmens Stammler had harassed a young activist in Vienna’s Club U4 and then injured a journalist who tried to intervene on her behalf, prompting his resignation and complete withdrawal from public life.

At the time, the impression was that the victim had been a complete stranger, only for it to emerge that it was actually Lena Schilling, who was already considered to be a top contender for the EU candidate list at the time. Messages between the two also reveal that Schilling regularly contacted Stammler before the event, had a generally good relationship, and it was her who invited him that night to U4. Once in the club, however, she wanted to have nothing to do with him and spoke badly about him to others, the people who were present recalled.

Stammler might have still been guilty, but Schilling’s personality suggests that he might have been provoked all night just for a bit of drama to put her in the spotlight again.

“Not a moral assessment”

While some party members have decried that the scandal has no political dimensions and the opposition is only using Schilling’s private life to dirty the campaign, other Greens think differently.

As a person of public interest who strives to be the leader of the Austrian delegation in Brussels, Schilling is one of the most important representatives of the entire party which has the trust of about half a million voters in the country. Her behavior toward others is no longer a private issue, but a public one of the highest importance, and should be viewed accordingly.

“This is not a moral assessment of Lena’s behavior,” another EU candidate told the paper, but about how she deals with colleagues in a specific political and professional context. 

Day by day, the pressure on the party grows to replace Schilling on the candidate list, but playing defensive has so far remained the Greens’ official stance. Still, as a long-time acquaintance of Schilling’s told Der Standard, the stakes have never been higher. “If you don’t pull the emergency brake now, there will be enormous damage: for the Greens, for the climate movement—but especially for Schilling herself.”

Muslim migrants caught ‘red-handed’ burning down forests as an act of jihad

Image: Public domain.

By Olivia Murray

According to a RAIR report by Amy Mek out this past Saturday, Muslim migrants from the Indian state of Bihar were caught “red-handed” burning down large swathes of forestland in the state of Uttarakhand, all as an act of jihad. Mek also iterated that the damage done to the environment has been a “severe blow” to the region, “consuming thousands of trees” and causing the “destruction of over a thousands hectares of forest land” which is roughly equivalent to 2,800 acres.

Now Uttarakhand is very biodiverse, and is the home to many “rare or threatened” plant species and a number of “highly endangered” animal species (e.g. Asian elephant, snow leopard, tiger, King cobra, Himalayan monal, etc.), and one can only imagine how many different flora and fauna species perished in the flames and smoke.

Here’s a bit of the damage:

And here’s one of the suspected culprits, bragging about his handiwork:

(What is it with people recording themselves while in commission of a crime? First it was Hunter Biden, now it’s these dopes.)

Yet I haven’t heard a peep from the progressive left on these willful acts of destruction; why? 

Now to be fair, leftists themselves often resort to arson to make their point, and we see this all the time—they too light forests on fire, to “prove” that “climate change” is real. Perhaps the leftists saw this and thought it would fuel the hysteria and advance their agenda—but I don’t think so.

To me, it obviously comes down to this: when you’re embracing conflicting interests (“Queers for Palestine”), which basically sums up the collective left because they’re suffering from a superiority complex and they’re not thinking for themselves, the terrorist interest always triumphs.

They’re against the patriarchy…until a designated terrorist group launches an attack against civilians and raping all the way because, free Palestine or something.

They’re friends of the gays…until practitioners of Sharia law toss them from rooftops, or crucify them in the public square.

They love the environment…until Muslim arsonists burn down thousands of acres of forest, killing who knows how many endangered species in the process, because they’re virtuously “tolerant”and accepting.

They’re “for the children” (Nancy Pelosi’s go-to guilt trip line)…until cross-dressing pedophiles embed themselves in elementary schools and kid’s museums because, “visibility” and “acceptance.”

They champion the cause of the common man, being exploited by a powerful overlord…until that common man is an American citizen and that powerful overlord is a tyrannical and thieving federal government.

They’re against the death penalty…unless the person slated for execution is a baby in the womb.

They stand against the oil companies…by utterly destroying priceless works of art on display.

Because, when it really comes down to it, they’re not beholden to virtue, morality, or progressivism, but terrorism, wickedness, and death—plain and simple.

Transgender support is crumbling over controversies around men competing in women’s sports

Sadie Schreiner RIT

Female sporting events remain one of the key conflicts in the transgender culture war touching nearly every aspect of public life.

On May 4, a trans-identified male won two National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) events at the Liberty League track and field championships, the 400 meters in 55.07 seconds and the 200 meters in 24.14 seconds. Sadie Schreiner, a male who previously went by the name Camden, earlier in the season set the “women’s school record” in the 300 meters at Nazareth Alumni Opener Invitational with a time of 41.80 seconds.

Schreiner was representing the Rochester Institute of Technology. Both of his times would have put him dead last in the men’s events at the same meet but instead were women’s school records, with the 200 time becoming a Liberty League women’s record, exceeding only Schreiner’s previous time of 24.50 from this same season. Schreiner previously competed against fellow males.

Schreiner insists, however, that he has no advantage over female competitors, posting that “Out of all the hate that’s been shared of me ‘cheater’ is the most common word used… In my eyes, the discussion of trans inclusion in athletics shouldn’t even be a debate… As more research is done the more evident this becomes. There’s a reason I’m only as fast as I was in middle school, and the only variable that’s changed over my 9 years of running is my medication.”

“Even as Olympic studies prove the disadvantages of trans athletes, it’s not enough,” he continued. “Policies are being changed before research is done and the only way to stay educated in this process is to talk to the few trans athletes that are competing and hear their stories, bring them into the conversation. The only way to make an educated decision on a small handful of athletes is to hear their voice, not speak for them.”

Plenty of female athletes are making their voices heard, although Schreiner likely doesn’t care for their perspective on his participation. In West Virginia recently, five female students at a high school track meet declined to compete against a trans-identified male in Harrison Country’s middle school shot put event. Each girl stepped up to the circle and then refused to throw. All five girls have since been banned from future track meets.

Across the pond, 64-year-old British darts star Deta Hedman forfeited her opportunity to win the Denmark Open after refusing to play against a trans-identified male. Hedman, described by the Daily Mail as “one of the most well-known figures in the women’s darts scene,” has previously called on organizational governing bodies to restrict participation to women only. “I’m not playing against a man in a women’s event,” Hedman told the German newspaper Bild. The stand attracted praise from Lynne Pinches, who recently forfeited her winning spot during the pool competition Ladies Champions of Champions for also refusing to play a trans-identified male.

The latter events, of course, have less to do with the physical advantages that males have in competitions such as running and throwing and more to do with the principle of the thing. Increasingly, well-known female competitors are simply opting out of tournaments in which they are asked to compete against males. They want their own spaces; they are not using the language of “transgender women”; they are not debating testosterone levels or engaging in arguments about specific physiological points. They are just opting out entirely, and they are willing to sacrifice money, prizes, and prestige to do so.

This is precisely the sort of pushback that is necessary — and this is precisely the moment to do it. The consensus is crumbling.

Reducing Immigration Now More Important to Europeans Than Climate Change

Concern about immigration and terrorism is rising in Europe while “fighting climate change” as a priority is falling by the wayside among voters, research led by the former Secretary General of NATO has found.

A massive global survey of 63,000 people in 53 countries by the Alliance of Democracies Foundation (ADF) uncovers remarkable global trends including falling interest in the Ukraine war, concern about the damage to democracy done by “global corporations”, and growing belief governments only seek to serve a “small group of people”, not the majority. Among these findings is fresh data on the feeling of Europeans on the threats to their continent, and the priorities they have for their governments.

The ADF, founded by former NATO Secretary General and Danish Prime Minister Anders Fogh Rasmussen published its annual Democracy Perception Index this week and it reported “many European countries have seen a sharp rise in the share of people who say that ‘reducing immigration’ should be a top government priority”. At the same time, it said, interest in “fighting climate change” was falling.

While reducing immigration is a priority for just 16 per cent of people globally, it is trending towards 50 per cent in some European states. As a policy area, in Europe as a whole it overtook fighting climate change this year, and is on course to easily overtake promoting economic growth by 2025, leaving only ‘reduce poverty’ as a greater priority for European voters.

This is a remarkable turn of events, not least because many Western governments have said they are pushing for open borders and high immigration levels precisely to promote economic growth. While this is being ever more widely acknowledged as either a lie or at least misguided, the new report findings suggest even if mass migration was proven to boost Western economies, Europeans may still rather see arrivals cut than economic growth at any price.

While concern about immigration varies across Europe, the countries ahead of the continent-wide trend on calling it a top priority citizens think their government should address included Germany, Netherlands, France, and the United Kingdom. Tangentially, those interviewed in Germany, Ireland and France were at the forefront of people worldwide calling migration a top global — as opposed to just national — issue, while concern about terrorism is also rising in the continent, and particularly in France.

The study may make particularly uncomfortable reading for the Germany government — a left-wing coalition featuring both the establishment-left Social Democrats and the hard-left Green Party — where encouraging migration and radically changing the economy to suit the environmentalist agenda remains top priorities. This ideological drive has seen some remarkable decisions reached, including shutting down Germany’s remaining fleet of nuclear power stations during an energy crisis and a gas shortage.

Germany’s Green Party Federal Minister for Economic Affairs and Climate Protection Robert Habeck subsequently claimed nobody had warned him shutting down nuclear power during a power crisis was a bad idea. While this may seem obvious, further revelations have suggested the minister may even have been deliberately kept in the dark about such things, allegedly to force the policy through, leading into question both his judgement and the malign influence of his aides.

The disconnect between the German people — the most likely to say controlling immigration is a priority of any country in Europe, the Democracy Perception Index figures state — and the principles of the government is handily expressed in polling. While the Red-Green-Yellow coalition picked up 51.8 per cent of the popular vote in the 2021 Federal elections leading to the present coalition government, polling today puts those parties at just 34 per cent.

The ‘reds’ Social Democrats have even surrendered their position as the second-largest party in German politics in the past year, with the right-populist Alternative For Germany (AfD) now polling at 18 per cent.

The polling showing the new priorities for Europe also comes just weeks before nearly the whole continent is due to vote in June’s European Parliament elections. The populist-right is predicted to make a breakthrough, apparently sending the globalist-centrist Brussels establishment into a panic.

France: The patrons of a village café seize an illegal Gambian migrant who threatened them with a knife and shouted ‘Allah Akbar’

The afternoon of the 27th of April 2024 was somewhat chaotic in Bosc-Le-Hard. A man from Gambia, who was under an obligation issued by the prefect of the Eure department to leave French territory, got furious.

After an argument started in a bar, he allegedly pulled out a knife and shouted Allah Akbar.

He was completely confused and had apparently demanded drinks and food from the guests. He then became very angry and moved on with his knife.

The customers were able to subdue him, while the police took him into custody and brought him to court in Dieppe.

He appeared in court the next day but remained silent in front of his judges. Apparently, he did not want to comment on his situation, the reasons that had led him to Bosc-le-Hard or his behaviour.

The public prosecutor demanded a prison sentence of eight months without parole and a permanent ban from French territory.
The judges considered that the threats and theft of which the defendant was accused could not be sufficiently proven, but he was sentenced to two months’ imprisonment for carrying a weapon and not leaving French territory. He will therefore spend his last days on French territory behind bars.
