Is it true that the World Economic Forum was called to allow animal marriages?

The news was widely dispersed on the Internet that the WEF was in support of the legalization of marriages between people and animals in order to encourage “diversity and inclusiveness”. We checked the reliability of such publications.

Dozens posts With shocking news appeared In social networks "VKontakte" And Twitter. Not bypassed it and Users Blog-platform "Zen". The widespread news diverged into Telegram: for example, a TV presenter wrote about it in his channel Ruslan Ostashko (153,000 views at the time of writing analysis), as well as channels "Ukraine.ru"(97,000 views),"The new world order is resistance"(41,000 views),"Russia today Putin"(20,000 views) and others. 

For the first time, a message that the WEF made the initiative to legalize sex and marriages with animals, as they will contribute to inclusiveness, appeared on March 1, 2023 on the English -language news portal NewspunchMoreover, with the Fact Checked dick (that is, “verified”). It was the screenshots of the page of this portal that dispersed through the Russian -language segment of social networks. The text of the news clarifies that the WEF "ordered" the governments of different countries "to take immediate steps in the direction of this controversial initiative." No other details are given - neither the name of the person who voiced this proposal (as if its author was the whole forum entirely), nor an accurate quote. The news cover posts a photo of Klaus Schwaba, the President of the World Economic Forum and Hero Popular conspiracy theories, therefore, it may seem that it was he who proposed legalizing marriages with animals. However, in the article his name is never mentioned. 

NEWSPUNCH Changed The name of the portal Your News Wire, which in 2017 Recognized One of the most popular sources of fake news on Facebook. “Checked” more than once denied fakes posted on this site. So, for example, the news was not confirmed that the first lady of Ukraine Elena Zelenskaya spent 40,000 euros on shopping during an official visit to Paris that Mel Gibson He called the entire Hollywood elite pedophiles or that in the Philippines Bill Gates They want to arrest for the murder. By data The Pointer Institute, by mid -2018, about 80 reports by YOUR News Wire were refuted by independent facts.

Our colleagues-factory from Snopes Turned The VEF for comment on the news of calling for legalization of marriages with animals. They answered the official representative of the organization Yann TsPF: “This is a fake story aimed at discrediting the important work that the World Economic Forum conducts on serious global problems. The WEF never made such statements and has neither authority nor intentions to give orders to governments, other organizations or private individuals. ” 

As an example of one of the countries that has already supported the WEF initiative, the author of the material in Newspunch cites Spain, where it is supposedly now legally to have sex with animals, if they do not get serious injuries. "Checked" earlier Disassembled This news found out that it was not at all about the legalization of zoophilia, but only about the replacement of obsolete formulations in the law and, in fact, about the more strict regulation of such crimes in this European country. 

The authors of Newspunch also claim that the WEF is going to spread the zoophilia around the world through the influence of the media. In confirmation, they cite tweet American publicist James Lindsay, which contains a screenshot of an article by a certain publication called POX with the heading “explains why the recent legalization of sex with animals in Spain is the triumph of inclusiveness and diversity.” However, there is no POX publication, it is only a parody of the portal Vox. Similar collages are contained in other tweets of Lindsay, for example, with odious headlines in the spirit of “When Women+ (Women wearing size there are more than 16 clothes according to the American dimensional system, that is, more than 54 in Russian- approx. “Verified”) They say that other women should stand aside, be silent and know their place ”or“Plane crash Due to the variety, this is a probable effect of variety in aviation, and that's why it is worth it. ” That is, the argument of the authors of the Newspunch article about the normalization of zoofilia through the media is reduced to the obviously comic screenshot of the Twitter user.

Thus, the source of the news about the calls of the WEF to legalize marriages with animals is a message on a site that has previously been “caught” on the spread of fakes. The authors of the note do not give any details about who and under what circumstances proposed a similar initiative, and do not give references to the public statements of the VEF or the message of insiders. Representatives of the organization deny involvement in such calls and the very opportunity to “order” the governments of the countries. There are no reliable evidence that the WEF plans to legalize the zoophilia at the world level.
