If something is missing in our legislation, let’s get it there. If police capacity is insufficient, we can strengthen it. If it is necessary to train the police, even more, we can do it. No one has explained to me yet, what the added value of the Istanbul Convention is. To disagree with the Convention does not mean not protecting women and not fighting against violence against women, but disagreeing with a mad ideology that can easily be misused and is an integral part of the Convention. After all, the #MeToo campaign is a beautiful example of how far protection against sexual harassment can get.
This is not about gender equality, but about something that overcomes even the existing absurd attempts of positive discrimination. The Convention will, among other things, require “a change of attitudes, traditional gender roles, and stereotypes that make violence against women acceptable”. Finally, this is not about protecting women, but about ideology.
It will start with women´s and men’s quotas, through the implementation of various measures to promote new gender roles and the support of non-profit organizations that will carry these measures to the control and possible displacing of information supporting the original concept of the role of men and women in society. Here we are openly talking about censorship, and no one pretends we are not. Everything will be supervised by new experts, a new control body (GREVIO) with broad competencies and even wider immunity.
Social engineering is green with envy. Also, critics of the Istanbul Convention are being labeled with backward, anti-Western, ignorant, or even a chauvinistic attitude, because reportedly they do not care about violence against women.
