China slams NATO's strategic blueprint and blames the United States for Russia's invasion of Ukraine

China's Foreign Ministry spokesperson has blasted NATO for its strategic blueprint claiming it wants to start a "new Cold War" as he blamed the United States for Russia's invasion of Ukraine.

China has called for NATO members to drop their “Cold War mentality” after the intergovernmental military alliance declared Beijing was a “challenge” to its interests and security.

NATO’s new 10-year strategic policy called China out for its “malicious” cyber operations, strategic partnership with Russia, attempts to dominate supply chains and expansion of its nuclear arsenal.

Foreign Ministry spokesperson Zhao Lijian on Wednesday took aim at the intergovernmental organisation and accused member nations of repeated "forays into the Asia-Pacific region".

“NATO should stop drawing ideological lines, stoking political confrontation, or seeking to start a new Cold War,” Mr Zhao said.

“It should discard the Cold War mentality and zero-sum game mindset and stop making enemies. NATO has already disrupted Europe. It should not seek to destabilize Asia and the world.”

Mr Zhao then turned to the nations imposing sanctions on Russia and supplying weapons to Ukraine before accusing the United States of benefiting from the conflict.

“The ongoing Russia-Ukraine conflict has taken a heavy toll on Europe politically, economically and socially, while the US benefits from it, with arms dealers popping champagne and American grain and energy industries making exorbitant profits,” the Foreign Ministry spokesperson said.

“As the one who started the Ukraine crisis and the biggest factor fuelling it, the US needs to reflect on its disreputable role it has played in the Ukraine crisis and stop smearing China.”

NATO’s recently released strategic blueprint did not hold back in its overview of China’s activities, accusing it of “confrontation rhetoric” and distributing disinformation to target allies with the aim of harming alliance security.

A Dutch Pro-Pedophilia Activist Has Been Charged With Sexually Abusing ‘Dozens’ of Minors

Marthijn Uittenbogaard and his husband were arrested in Ecuador

Marthijn Uittenbogaard, a Dutch national who has called for pedophilia to be “de-stigmatized,” has been arrested in Ecuador on charges of sexually abusing “dozens” of children within the country. According to Reduxx, the 50-year-old was arrested outside of the town of Canoa after a brief manhunt.

The Transnational Crime Investigation Unitof the National Police of Ecuador arrested Uittenbogaard after receiving multiple reports.

Uittenbogaard allegedly lured several minors to his residence, many of whom would stay for extended periods of time. They were allegedly lured into the home under promises of playing video games, where they were then coerced into sex acts with promises of money and sweets.

The Dutch national is also accused of luring several minors to parties at his pool, where they were then groped and sexually assaulted.

Authorities recovered numerous devices that contained evidence of the abuse upon his arrest, authorities said.

“The pedophile’s capture is said to have been a direct result of the arrest of one of his colleagues in Mexico earlier this month,” Reduxx reported.

Nelson Maatman, a friend of Uittenbogaard who also wants to “de-stigmatize” pedophilia, was arrested in Mexico City earlier this month. An anonymous tip was handed to the Mexican prosecutor’s office indicating that he intended to purchase an adolescent and sell child sexual exploitation material, which led to his arrest on June 5.

Maatman was in possession of four terabytes of child sexual abuse material across a number of external storage devices, Reduxx reported. Maatman was also in possession of photos of children, a weapon, and drugs when he was apprehended.

Uittenbogaard was arrested along with his husband, Lesley, who previously had been imprisoned in their home country for creating child sexual abuse material. The pair were among a number of pro-pedophilia Dutch nationals who fled the Netherlands earlier this year.

False QAnon Conspiracies in Politics: What to Watch Out for Ahead of the Midterms

The QAnon conspiracy theory, which first surfaced in October 2017, falsely purports that former President Donald Trump was fighting a hidden war against a cabal of Satanist pedophiles in Hollywood and the Democratic Party. Believers in the conspiracy theory's outlandish claims continue to be part of the political landscape, which could have serious ramifications as the midterm elections draw closer.

The nonpartisan Public Religion Research Institute a nonprofit that researches the intersection of religion, culture and public policy released a study in February showing that nearly 16% of Americans believe the core QAnon conspiracy.

"QAnon has evolved from a movement centered around Trump leading a secret military intelligence operation to save the world, into a movement that not only doesn't need Trump but doesn't even need the iconography it developed over the past four years," said Mike Rothschild, conspiracy researcher and author of The Storm Is Upon Us, which provides a history of the QAnon conspiracy theory.

Conspiracy theories can be dangerous and even deadly as seen during the COVID-19 pandemic, with vaccine misinformation playing a role in some people succumbing to the virus. Despite being repeatedly debunked, belief in the QAnon conspiracy continues to infect areas of politics beyond Trump. So far this year, aspects of the conspiracy have seeped into protests, a Supreme Court hearing and legislation.

"Its mythology of secret pedophile rings suppressed cures and technology, massive corruption and fraud propelling a [purportedly] decrepit Joe Biden into office, and COVID being a hoax, have infected every aspect of mainstream conservative politics and culture," Rothschild added.

It doesn't help that the mysterious figure Q broke their 18 months of silence on June 24. With the midterm elections coming up, the conspiracy is likely to continue popping up in campaigns and on social media feeds. Being able to recognize its influence may make it easier to spot, and avoid, in the future.

Here are some of the current events that the QAnon conspiracy has latched onto, some obvious and others less so.
