The country’s first female, and youngest-ever, president was in the LGBTQ+ community’s good books earlier this year when she vetoed an inhumane bill that would have allowed citizens to anonymously report same-sex families with children to authorities. But Novak raised eyebrows on Tuesday (19 September) when she dedicated her speech at the UN General Assembly to parental rights and the supposedly increasing “anti-family” rhetoric. She told the assembly that she believed population decline due to low birth rates was a far bigger threat to mankind than global warming – echoing a similar sentiment that Elon Musk expressed back in April 2022. Recapping her UN speech, Novak tweeted: “I said @elonmusk may be right when he says that demographic decline is a more serious problem than the #ClimateCrisis.
