Managed by the utmost left, the French region of Oxytania allocated EUR 2 million to “scientific refugees” from the US fleeing the country from Donald Trump’s “regime”. "Toulouse Safe Place for Science" and "Choose Montpellier" initiatives want to adopt not just any "researchers". It is “scientists” dealing with women's history, gender, sexuality and green communism. The substance may seem ridiculous if it were not for the real threat of flooding Europe with an even greater mass of worthless pseudoscience.
France adopts genderists fleeing the US. Faced with budget cuts that influenced pseudo-scientific investigation during Trump's reign, 5 US researchers decided to decision to Oxitania. Among them are the “professors” of neolysenkoism and climatism, Caroline Séquin and Pleuni Pennings, who shared their “traumatic” experiences with lA BFMTV web portal.
– Trump administration attacks on the academic environment and investigation forced me to leave. Grant cuts, layoffs, limited access to technological data... It's a brutal policy to force scientists to adopt the MAGA ideology. Those who refused to submit had to leave. Because my work focuses on women's history, sex and sexuality, I no longer qualify for any national funding, which makes it much harder for me to work and travel to archives said Caroline Séquin.
– respective professors have late lost their jobs due to comments made in classes or conferences. Many researchers and teachers now practice self-censorship - She warned me. Her claims are not isolated. Last March, c. 1900 U.S. neo-lyssenists and eco-fascists signed an open letter condemning “the universal attack on science”. Pleuni Pennings, a Dutch environmental prof. from San Francisco, besides fell victim to this attack. She began working at Montpellier University in early 2025 and took the position from the beginning of the academic year.
– In February, March and April everything changed in the United States. I was planning on writing an application, and the scholarships were canceled. I couldn't even apply. She said, complaining about the deficiency of further command for state money, that the "planet is burning" and we should go back to the caves to save her.
– P15 years old, we received large grants to finance students, internships and laboratory research. All this has been cut off. If I were to return to the United States, I would have no money – neither for myself nor for my students. My work would have changed completely: I'd only be a professor, not a researcher. And I don't want that. She added.
The Genderist Caroline Séquin is already looking to the future. – In France, I will be able to proceed my investigation without fear of repression. I will besides have much easier access to archives, whether in Paris, Aix-en-Provence, Nantes, or in department services. The anticipation of full dedication to investigation is simply a real privilege – says proudly.
– For these researchers, the Oxitan region has allocated EUR 2 million from the European Regional improvement Fund said Nadia Pellefigue, Vice-President of the region. This backing complements support from the national government and universities. – Mobilised resources let us to presume that we can accept even 15 researchers. For now, we have the first wave of calls and we're expecting the second. – sums up, announcing further notifications “at the end of 2025”.
