The Beginning of the End of the Dangerous ‘Trans’ Ideology

Analysis: Conservative Caucus
The Decade of Destruction
For approximately a decade, radical teachers, the media, and psychologists convinced several million schoolchildren and young adults to undergo sterilizing drugs and mutilating surgery that permanently destroyed their bodies in a quest to ‘become’ the opposite sex.
Many later regretted the decisions they were enticed to make as minors. Many more will be afraid to admit they destroyed their body and ability to find a normal life.
Minors are unable to make responsible decisions about their lives for anything else, including drinking alcohol or getting medical treatments without parental permission. But the rules and laws were suspended for minors destroying their bodies and future. They will forever be unable to have a child of their own, and will be permanent outcasts in society.
What the teachers, psychologists and even popular culture won’t inform those being groomed into undergoing the drugs and surgery is an epidemic-level rate of depression—over 50% of that population, mental illness and even a 9-times higher lifetime suicide attempt risk vs. the general population.
There’s even a rise in mass shootings by ‘trans’ individuals. The assassin of Charlie Kirk had a trans boyfriend.
The Targeted Vulnerable
“Trans” ideology was pushed especially to the shy and unpopular. Radical teachers made heroes of those who succumbed to the propaganda and the carefully-painted dream. The medical industry got rich mutilating healthy boys and girls. Big pharma made billions selling the drugs that chemically castrated boys and made girls unable to ever get pregnant.
The decent were punished for objecting. For warning their kids. For not using the ‘pronouns’ that the propagandists invented. Schools would turn in parents to the police, resulting in kids being taken from their parents into government ‘care’ where their false fantasies would be nurtured.
Insanity is contagious.
The insanity came from radical Democrat teachers, feminist parents who wanted a child of the opposite sex or thought it would be fun bragging rights at parties.
The Culture of Enforcement
Teachers and social media lauded those who succumbed to the propaganda. Boys were invited into girls’ bathrooms and locker rooms. Boys stole girls’ sports awards. Rapes and assaults were covered up. Schoolkids got in trouble—including suspension—for objecting to boys in girls’ bathrooms and changing rooms.
The Dramatic Reversal
What happened to cause the sudden decline?
Kids and young adults are now rejecting the lure to permanently mutilate their bodies and prevent them from ever having children. Thank God.
What was behind it? Divide and conquer. The war on Americans by Democrat leaders has many facets. The more they can divide Americans by race, income, religion, party and sex, the more they can take power. The more they can cripple Americans with drugs, trans drugs and mutilation, they then become dependent on government to get their drugs, to demand their ‘rights,’ free legal assistance, and when they can’t find jobs, to get welfare.
Thankfully, 26 states have now instituted bans for minors getting the mutilating surgeries and drugs.
The Origin: Following the Money
How did ‘trans’ become a national epidemic?
It’s not a surprise that the ‘trans’ fad started to be pushed date-coincident with the 2015 Obergefell v. Hodges Supreme Court ruling that homosexual marriage is a constitutional right under the 14th Amendment. Why is that notable?
Suddenly all the grifting organizations that pushed for homosexual marriage and their related ideologies had no purpose to exist anymore. They won. Who would donate money? How would they get government grants with nothing left to fight for?
Since the 1990s, such organizations received between $15-25 billion in taxpayer funds. The answer to keep the gravy train going was to make “trans” ideology their new issue to push.
Then the bucks rolled in again. And the teachers, media, courts, politicians and Hollywood rapidly adopted the ideology as the most important thing to push. Insurance companies raised your premiums to cover the costs of offering ‘free’ mutilating surgeries and sterilizing drugs.
Starting with Obama, the military offered free surgeries and drugs. While Trump ended the practice, a Democrat judge ordered reinstating the surgeries and drugs.
Radical Democrat teachers told their students not to tell their parents. Kids were taken away from their parents if they objected to the “transing” of their children.
Why the Drop?
Perhaps kids are seeing the pain and agony of those who succumbed to the social pressure and lies—and they don’t want to destroy their own lives. Perhaps kids are noticing that an increasing number of “trans” people are committing mass murders. Or seeing how “trans” people become psychologically unstable. In states that banned the drugs and surgeries, the radical teachers and parents were unable to start children on the route to personal destruction.
And with the reduction of people watching the big liberal media, maybe more kids read about the dark side of the drugs, surgery and the intense depression that results when they wake up to having destroyed their bodies for life.
Polls also show rising numbers of students don’t believe their radical leftist teachers and professors anymore—but pretend to and give ‘liberal answers’ in order to get better grades.
Regardless, this is a positive trend for America’s youth and young adults.
May the epidemic end quickly to save more kids.
