Now it is Klaus Schwab, of the World Economic Forum’s Turn! By Richard Miller (London)

In recent times, a number of powerful and publicly influential men, never women, have been accused, and some convicted, of sexual harassment. The Trump "rape" case is one in point, where the evidence and procedural fairness issues are open to question. In short, it seemed to be a set-up. Other cases seem genuine. There are two types of scenarios. Powerful men may feel that they can be free with their advances, and actually engage in sexual harassment. Or in the alternative, women may engage in sexual activity with such men for career advancement, then later down the track, feel guilty, or see an opportunity for "payback."

The latest me-too case involves allegations about Klaus Schwab, the founder of the globalist World Economic Forum (WEF), who has been accused of sexual harassment and discrimination. Schwab is accused of making sexually suggestive comments and engaging in inappropriate behavior. That may or may not be true; Schwab denies it.

And as well, the bar is very low for such complaints today. I know of one case here in London, where a young IT/AI guy, a recent graduate, was at a party hosted by the IT firm. A female employee, whom this young guy went to university with and was now working with him at the AI firm, was seated at his table. She did not drink alcohol, he did. He grabbed a glass next to them, which she claims to have been her water glass, which he says was an empty free glass, tipped wine into it and drank. This was observed by a roaming feminist HR person, who got a disciplinary charge going. The aim was to sack him, and maybe set up criminal charges re drink spiking; apparently some male victim was needed to be sacrificed to the dark god of woke, to make it look like HR did something. Fortunately, he got onto a good criminal lawyer and smashed it. Now he is looking for another job, are even though the claim was defeated, the black mark remains.

"Klaus Schwab, the founder of the globalist World Economic Forum (WEF), has been accused of sexual harassment and discrimination by several former employees.

The Wall Street Journal (WSJ) first broke the news, citing "dozens of current and former employees and other people familiar with the [WEF's] practices." Many of the staffers the outlet talked to have accused Schwab, 86, and other higher-ups at the organization of making sexually suggestive comments and engaging in inappropriate behavior.

One female staffer who worked at the WEF's Geneva headquarters in the 2000s recounted her story to the WSJ. She said Schwab posed in a sexually suggestive manner, "propping his leg up on her desk with his crotch in front of her face." The globalist even tried his hand with pick-up lines, telling the said staffer that he wished she was Hawaiian as he would like to see her in a Hawaiian costume.

"I need to find you a man, and if I were not married, I would put myself on the top of that list," Schwab reportedly told her more than once. The 86-year-old WEF founder married his former assistant Hilde, who serves as co-chair of the Schwab Foundation for Social Entrepreneurship, in 1971.

Another staffer, Myriam Boussina, recounted how Schwab complimented her attire, haircut and body in an inappropriate manner that caused her discomfort. She had worked at the WEF in the 1990s as Schwab's personal assistant and in a role handling partner companies, according to the WSJ.

"I knew he liked me and I knew he found me pretty," Boussina remarked. "Every man with a lot of power, they think they can get any woman and they are not ashamed."

A third female staffer who worked at the WEF in the 2010s said it was common for attendees of the organization's events to proposition young staffers. "There was a lot of pressure to be good-looking and wear tight dresses. Never in my career have I experienced looks being such an important topic as in the [WEF]."

Schwab also biased against pregnant employees

The WSJ piece also shared how Schwab's organization is purportedly biased against pregnant employees. This contrasts with the WEF's published articles and white papers about the importance of supporting new mothers in the workplace.

"After becoming pregnant or giving birth, several women saw their fortunes take a turn for the worse at the [WEF]. Some received sharp critiques about their performances or lost their roles right as they were coming back from maternity leave. At times, they were offered temporary jobs or roles that the mothers perceived as demotions."

Topaz Smith, who joined the WEF in 2022 and worked in its New York office, served as an example of the latter. She gave birth to twins last year but was told a week before returning from maternity leave in February that her role had been eliminated.

The WEF offered her a six-month temporary position, but a replacement was soon hired to fill a role with the same job title and duties she handled before her maternity leave. Smith was later dismissed from the WEF, leading her to slam it as a "psychologically violent institution."

In response, the WEF declined to make its founder available for an interview. WEF Head of Media Yann Zopf blasted the WSJ piece in a statement, alleging that its publication would "mischaracterize our organization, culture and colleagues, including our founder." (Related: Klaus Schwab STEPS DOWN as World Economic Forum executive chairman.)

A second WEF spokesman also denied the accusations against Schwab, maintaining that the WEF founder "does not and has never engaged in the vulgar behaviors" outlined in the piece. The organization likewise pushed back against the alleged discrimination against pregnant employees, insisting that it involved former staffers "dismissed for performance reasons or as part of restructurings."
