I see the public struggle sessions for holding to Christian beliefs have now reached Mexico.
A Mexican politician and Civil Society leader Rodrigo Iván Cortés was just handed a sentence that drastically curtails his free speech and dealt a blow to the global battle for free speech, as well as sanity.
Here is Cortés describing his case in Spanish with subtitles:
The former congressman got into trouble and was convicted of "gender-based violence" because he posted on Facebook and Twitter to criticize a fellow congressman. The "violence" was in the form of saying that his colleague is a "man who self-ascribes as a woman."
(Which is a lot nicer than how I would have worded it.)
Yes, Cortés was convicted for accurately describing reality in a way that contradicted the modern gender and sexual revolution.
On Wednesday 9 August, Mexico's highest court for electoral issues, the Superior Chamber of the Electoral Tribunal of the Federal Judicial Power, upheld the lower court's guilty verdict, convicting Cortés of (i) gender-based political violence, (ii) digital violence, (iii) symbolic violence, (iv) psychological violence, and (v) sexual violence for his social media expression.
The Superior Chamber imposed a fine of $19,244.00 MXN, in addition to directing him to publish the court ruling and an apology drafted by the court on Twitter and Facebook daily for 30 days. Cortés also must take a course on "gender-based political violence" and register on the National Registry of Persons Sanctioned in Political Matters against Women.
Mao would be proud.
His punishment for "violence" in the form of offensive words is that he has to:
- • Pay a hefty fine
- • Submit to re-education in the form of a course on "gender-based political violence"
- • Register as a political enemy of women (for calling a fake woman a man, remember)
- And, the most insulting an dehumanizing of all the punishments:
- •He has to post the same apology written by the court on his Facebook and Twitter every single day for the next 30 days.
The public humiliation and shaming is the point.
This man blasphemed the public religion. And even in Mexico he was not safe from this insane, woke HR government.
This is a punishment for Cortés and a warning for anyone else who dares speak their conservative and Christian convictions in public.
We're living in 1984.
