“Greek soccer legend Vassilis Tsiartas has been given a 10-month suspended jail sentence after speaking out against child ‘gender reassignment’ surgeries.
“Tsiartas, who was a key part of the Greek national team’s underdog victory at the UEFA European Football Championship in 2004, was prosecuted under an “anti-racism” law {???}. The soccer star became the first person to be sentenced under law, which was amended in 2014. The Transgender Support Association had filed a lawsuit against him, throFreeugh its president, Marina Galanos.
“The “transphobic” posts that landed Tsiartas came in 2017, when Greece was passing a bill that, among other things, redefined {so-called} ‘gender identity’. In one post, the soccer star wrote that he wished wished
“the first gender changes will be made to the children of those who voted for this disgrace [bill]. Let’s see how prideful they feel when their kids are marching down the streets. P.S. Legalise pedophiles and complete the crimes”.
“He was ultimately sentenced to 10 months in prison and has been ordered to pay a fine of 5,000 euros. The conviction against Vassilis Tsiartas was to implement the anti-racist law 927/1979 for public incitement to violence or hatred due to gender identity, Greek outlet Prothema News reported {See below}.
“The Transgender Support Association enthusiastically endorsed the sentence, calling it “particularly important for the transgender community”,
Breitbart News reported. Tsiartas has vowed to file an appeal.
“Nicknamed “El Mago”, Tsiartas is considered one of the best Greek soccer players of all time. In addition to domestic and continental cup wins, he went his entire career without receiving a single red card.”

“Vassilis Tsiartas, the former player of AEK and the Greek national team, was sentenced by the Single-Member Misdemeanor Court of Athens to 10 months in prison and a 5,000 euro suspended fine for his ‘transphobic’ post on social media in 2017.
“Vassilis Tsiartas became the first person to be sentenced under the anti-racism law, as amended in 2014. The Transgender Support Association had filed a lawsuit against him, through its president, Marina Galanos…
“Tsiartas in 2017, shortly before the passing of the bill for the redefinition of ‘gender identity’, had proceeded to post a statement through which it was deemed by the court he incited readers to acts of hatred and discrimination.
“More specifically, he had posted on his Facebook account that he wished “the first gender changes will be made to the children of those who voted for this disgrace [bill]. Let’s see how prideful they feel when their kids are marching down the streets. P.S Legalise pedophiles and complete the crimes.” In the second post of his, a few hours later he commented “God created Adam and Eve”.
“The conviction against Vassilis Tsiartas, as the lawyer Vassilis Sotiropoulos states in his post on Facebook, is the first decision to implement the anti-racist law 927/1979 for public incitement to violence or hatred due to ‘gender identity’.”

“Even when following IOC hormone-reduction guidelines, genetically male athletes are, on average, 40% heavier, 15% faster, 30% more powerful and 25-50% stronger than female athletes. It should therefore come as no surprise that injury to female athletes increases by 30% when genetically male competitors enter the sport.”

‘The Pervert Who Invented ‘Gender’’ (John Money) {Jan.30, 2023}:
“Gender identity” is a hot-topic today and has become a focal point of not just social discourse, but legal policy and procedure. But few people know the concept’s disturbing origins. John Money was a pervert. He was a child abuser. He was a pedophile sympathizer, if not a pedophile himself. And if a movement finds its origins in a man like John Money, it is time for that movement to do some (gendered) soul searching.”
