Italy honors parents over gender ideology
The Italian government is facing backlash for an order that recognizes only a child’s biological parents in same-sex surrogacies.
Italy stopped registering birth certificates with two mothers or two fathers earlier this year, but now in some cities even existing birth certificates are being invalidated, with parental rights being granted only to the biological parent.
In the northern Italian city of Padua, Prosecutor Valeria Sanzari has voided at least 33 birth certificates listing two mothers. The non-biological mothers’ names will be stricken from the documents and removed from the children’s last names when applicable.
The Daily Mail reported Saturday that in the city of Bergamo, a same-sex female couple was notified by the municipal government that the woman who did not give birth to the child was being “canceled” as a parent. Only the biological mother will retain parental rights such as they apply to schooling, healthcare and other areas.
Italy’s Democratic Party Secretary Elly Schlein slammed the order and bemoaned how “these families are tired of being discriminated against” though the female Bergamo couple told an opposite story.
“[The mayor] was very supportive,” said Michela, the non-biological parent. “We have never felt any pressure from society. Everyone around us, in our families, friends, fellow teachers, have completely accepted our sexual orientation.”
Non-biological parents are also being removed from birth certificates in Florence, Milan and Fiumicino.
Globalists are condemning the Meloni administration for the move. Giorgia Meloni, elected as Italy’s first female prime minister last year, campaigned strongly on family values.
“Yes to the natural family! No to the LGBT lobby!” she exclaimed at a rally in Spain last year.
“We want a nation in which – whatever each person's legitimate choices and free inclinations – it is no longer a scandal to say we are all born from a man and a woman,” Meloni said more recently.
In September, YouTube removed a Meloni speech that went viral for its passionate defense of “God, family and country” and attack on the globalist agenda. University of Nebraska’s sophomore starting punter Brian Buschini, who praised the video, was forced to apologize.
Meloni, who is scheduled to visit the White House at the end of the month, has been in office less than a year but has already angered globalist powers with her rejection of their ideologies.
In May, the Meloni administration recently backed a bill that aims to ban fake foods, including lab-grown meat, from the country. Violation of the bill carries a €60,000 ($67,263) fine.
The legislation follows another law passed by Meloni’s administration requiring that all food items which contain insects be labeled as such.
Globalist Western powers, along with the WEF, have been pushing public consumption of insects — again to battle “climate change — as a healthy source of protein.
But according to the Financial Times, Meloni expressed her disgust for insect consumption.
“Insect products are arriving on supermarket shelves! Flour, larvae — good, delicious,” she said sarcastically in a recent video. “But when a product contains insects . . . we tell citizens with a nice visible label so they can choose whether to eat insects or not.”
At the same time, Meloni also rebuffed another globalist darling — ChatGPT.
ChatGPT is an AI chatbot released in November and hailed by the World Economic Forum as “the start of the generative AI boom.” Users can chat with ChatGPT, which is programmed to generate automatic responses based on a machine-learning algorithm. The Microsoft-backed program has been confirmed to strongly promote globalist agendas, which includes creating a fake study to try to claim there are more than two genders.
The Meloni administration ordered in late March that both ChatGPT and its creator, San Francisco-based firm Open AI, be prohibited from processing data from users in Italy. The Guarantor for the Protection of Personal Data (GPDP) cited several concerns, including ChatGPT’s lack of age verification tools to block inappropriate answers for children and its use of user data to enhance its language model.
