Kari Jaquesson

From the 2010s Jaquesson has become known for promoting a number of conspiracy theories, including climate change denial, COVID-19 misinformation and Russian propaganda related to the Russian invasion of Ukraine.^[1]

Jaquesson has promoted Holocaust denial for years, and has claimed that "there was no one who tried to exterminate the Jews in Europe. If they did, they did a lousy job, since the Jewish population had not shrunk after the war."^[5]

In 2015 Jaquesson implied that Israel supported ISIS, and was criticized by the Norwegian Humanist Association and others, who accused her of promoting antisemitic conspiracy theories.^[9][10][11]

Jaquesson is a long-time supporter of Bashar al-Assad.^[12] John Færseth argued that Jaquesson painted a picture of "a grand, international conspiracy against a popular Assad regime."^[13]

Jaquesson has said that "a man cannot become a woman."^[14] She is active in the Women's Declaration International anti-transgender group. She has also been active in the radical feminist Feminist Group Ottar and has often caused controversy as a representative of that group; in 2016, she told a 17-year girl to "suck dick ten times a day". The controversy regarded the legalization of prostitution, and the sucking was proposed to picture the unpleasant daily life of a prostitute.^[15]

From 2020 Jaquesson has actively promoted COVID-19 misinformation. She claimed there was no pandemic and ridiculed the public health measures, such as the use of masks.^[16][17]

Jaquesson supports the Russian invasion of Ukraine. She is a contributor to and a co-owner of the website Steigan.no that promotes Russian propaganda.^[18]
