The Rainbow Privilege
By Rodrigo Ballester, European Conservative.
The curtain is closing, and although the Paris Olympics were memorable in sporting terms, they will also go down in history for an opening ceremony that was largely a woke coven with satanic overtones. For those seeking definitive proof of the West’s arrogant and grotesque decadence, the ideology-saturated Parisian elites managed the clumsy feat of both disparaging their own culture and offending many others—all in prime time.
But beyond the pathetic Pavlovian reflex of mocking and offending as if it were a universal hallmark of the génie français, what stands out from a distance is the insulting frivolity with which an exultant minority allowed itself to humiliate a resigned majority in front of billions of astonished viewers. The embarrassing mockery of the Last Supper is a direct consequence of the brutal secularization sweeping through Europe—but that’s not all. It also reflects the hegemony of ‘rainbow/queer/trans’ ideology, now an official cult that imposes itself with the arrogance of the chosen and the impunity of the untouchable. Behind the usual victimhood narrative lie privileges, favoritism, and an omnipresence that feels almost obligatory.
In Spain, companies with more than fifty employees are required to establish inclusion plans for ‘queer’ workers, while the public employment service gives them the same preference as abused women or people facing social exclusion. Additionally, the law reverses the burden of proof, forcing the accused to prove their innocence in cases of homophobic and transphobic accusations—a radical departure from the legal principles established by Roman law and a significant blow to the presumption of innocence. In Canada, a court sentenced a father to six months in jail for opposing the ‘transition’—including hormone injections, puberty blockers, and a double mastectomy—of his healthy daughter. In Switzerland, the state has withdrawn parental rights for the same reasons, while in France, conversion therapies are punishable by two years in prison, preventing psychologists from helping minors reconsider irreversible mutilations. Let us not forget that the EU, despite lacking any authority over education, has withheld billions of euros from Hungary for protecting minors from any sexual propaganda, especially gender ideology.
The anthropological dimension of this hegemony is also astonishing. In the name of this cult, even the most elementary biology is redefined, with absurd claims like sex being a cultural construct, and grammar being altered with nonsensical social rules. Basic education is also being changed: children are sexualized from an early age and taught to dance like ‘drag queens’ at summer camps, so that the innocence of children is sacrificed on the altar of ‘inclusion,’ according to the trans agenda! Women are another group that suffers as collateral victims of the rainbow cult. In the name of diversity, men are allowed to ‘compete’ in women’s tournaments (as happened in the infamous Olympic boxing match), and rapists end up in women’s prisons, while actual women are officially referred to as “menstruators.”
