The anti-woke speech that rocked Davos: Argentina's President Milei slams 'deeply wrong' gender and migration ideology - and says UK 'imprisons citizens for revealing crimes committed by Muslim migrants'
Argentina's president Javier Milei has used his speech to the World Economic Forum to slam 'woke ideology' and condemn Western governments and institutions as being 'colonized' by it.
The Argentine premier took aim at the WEF as he denounced it for promoting 'deeply wrong' ideas around gender ideology, feminism, climate change, mass migration and left-leaning politics in general.
He also singled out the United Kingdom in his wide-ranging speech, implying that it is 'imprisoning citizens for revealing aberrant, truly appalling crimes committed by Muslim migrants that the government wants to hide'.
The rambling speech went on for half an hour and covered topics from the role of the European Union to terror attacks and abortion - but had one recurring theme throughout - the eradication of so-called 'wokeism'.
The 54-year-old argued that what he called the 'woke mind virus' - a term he did not define - is an 'epidemic that must be cured and the cancer that must be eradicated.'
The libertarian leader praised other leaders he sees as likeminded, such as Donald Trump, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni, Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban and El Salvador's Nayib Bukele.
Turning his sights on the Davos conference which he was addressing, Milei said: 'I must say, forums like this one have been protagonists and promoters of the sinister agenda of 'wokeism' that is doing so much harm to the West.'
