Here the crazies just go yelling that WEF is the source of all problems and in every conspiracy they can think of, from 9/11 to vaccines, they simply yell 'WEF!' a few times and that's their argument why WEF is bad :p

These Children that even when starving and evacuated and don't know if they live next day or not still care about their animals because it's a soul , These are Children that Sadist terrorists of Israel enjoy killing and they say this very loudly and proudly without 1% being regret

I think his speech got a lot of positive reviews:

 

 

Quite funny that he flew commercial, while all those people who desperately want to save the climate flew private, producing infinitely more CO2 ...

Attachment is the great fabricator of illusions; reality can be obtained only by someone who is detached.

The Biden administration’s climate-driven rethinking of U.S. natural gas exports is spooking Europe’s fragile energy industry.

I welcome the austerity but flying there to say nazism, communism and social democracy is all the same... you could hear the crickets in the auditorium at the end.

At least in my case: i dont like too much the  WEF but i dont criticize more than they deserve, i dont listen the anti-vaccines blame the WEF but coming from them, im not surprised, when i remember person like Louis Pasteur and allhis discovers and in the 21th century you have people who think all the conspiracys about the vaccines......its really sad.

The only thing of his speach i dont agree is when he said that Argentinas was "the first world power", thats absolutly false and is a tipical fallacy "ad nauseam", Argentina has the best PBI per capita for a few years in the end of the 19 century and nothing more.

The second thing you mention is one of the clasical hypocrisys of the environmentalists.

    • I’ve been busy actually watching it but I was just coming to post this tweet.

    • Congrats Diggins, well deserved! 👏   Too bad she fell on the last lap in the last race (as well as Karlsson also did x2).   For the future I would really like them to remove the bonus sprint points suring the race that almost makes more importance to the overall standings than the positions over the finish line. And get back to the same point system as the other FIS events. 30 gets points instead on 50, and 100-80-60... instead of this system. in this case Diggins deserves it and Sweden who of different reasons have missed pets of the season On purpose or not, does not deserve it. But it as it is now it may take 20 wins to catch up for one missed race (if the opponent is 2nd in each). Dahlqvist won the sprint cup without any individual wins (3rd overall) is one example of that.    There must be room to miss a race of any reason. If not, it Will not make people race more events, instead it might make skoters who already missed one weekend feel they are already too far behind so they light as well take less priority on the rest of the World cup season. Also skiiers who in Norway for example would be good enough for a top3 in the overall might not even be selected for many races due to the internal competition. Same for a skiier like Ebba Andersson who most likely would not qualify if she would be selected to go a sprint race. But she would still get a few points probably for rk 31-50, but because she would not make it in to the Swedish sprint team she Will lose a lot even compared to those who fail the sprint qualifications. Frida Karlsson another example, she would also probably have qualified most of the times but is most often not good enough to make the team. With more award to winning and making podiums and also less athletes scoring that would make it better I think. The scoring system in biathlon got some critics when they decided you have to count all races, but they at least increased the value of top positions meaning you could faster catch up a bad race/missed race, by a few podiums.
    • Great to see O’Connor on the podium again! Thats 4 major medals in the past 12 months (World Indoors x 2, Euro Indoors and World Championships).   Her strongest event is the javelin so she is going to continue to be a huge threat in the heptathlon this summer and she is still improving all the other events. Exciting times for her  
    • Congrats to Diggins winning the WC in her final season 
    • Call me mad, but it feels very strange to have made it all the way through a major championships without hearing how the results were going to lead to a slashing of funding for  sport.  
    • Only Fabbri from Italy has disappointed and that's a bit concerning... In 3 of the last 4 major events (OG and 2x Indoor World Champ), he's performed significantly worse than he did on the entire season – he took bronze at the 2025 World Championships, but his result was also nothing special. His performance today is completely incomprehensible  (
