The number of cases of child gender dysphoria in the U.S. has now exploded well over 1,000 times above its historically tiny 0.01 percent of the population. This unnatural surge in popularity has all the symptoms of a fad, and most parents are concerned (except for the woke).  Stories of trans-regrets abound, but little is said in the leftist-controlled media to discourage young people from taking hormones or opting for irreversible life-altering surgery.  Transitioning is now called gender-affirming care and is encouraged with or without parental approval.  This is happening nationwide and suggests a well-coordinated plan exists.

There are at least four classifications of groups marketing the trans agenda. 

(1)  Government:  The Biden administration and virtually the entire Democrat Party (at both the federal and state level) believe that gender-affirming policy and using our tax dollars to sexually groom kids is a good thing.  According to the Federalist:

“Federal grants are funding the interest groups spearheading efforts to “queer” education around the country… These groups are hijacking laws with sensible-sounding aims and attempting to create revolutionary changes in sexuality… These nonprofits push the theory that sexual repression is to blame for sexually transmitted diseases and unintended pregnancy and they hold that greater and earlier openness about sexuality and more inclusivity will prevent all evils… Their curricula encourage sexualizing children as a preventive measure. They believe they occupy the moral high ground: opposing their sexualization of children means encouraging disease, suicide, and unwanted pregnancy.”

(2)  Educators: Our education system is on the front lines with many new woke teachers who will actively influence K-12 students to accept gender-affirming measures and are willing to keep it a secret from parents.  However, there are many more players than woke schoolteachers inside the educational system helping to hypersexualize our children.  This shocking video from the No Left Turn in Education organization describes the growing and extremely disturbing web of powerful organizations involved.  This is obviously a well-funded, multiheaded monster that will be difficult to defeat. 

(3)  Opportunists:  Follow the money.  Our ethically challenged healthcare and Big Pharma are actively promoting it despite knowing it is impossible to change a person’s true sex because it is determined at the cellular level.  They also actively suppress scientific evidence that transitioning underage children does more harm than good, particularly as involves suicide and gender-dysphoric children.  Vanderbilt is only the latest medical institution caught saying out loud that this trend is a huge opportunity to make money. 

(4)  Media:  Positive media coverage is known to increase referrals to gender clinics.  This type of marketing is supplied constantly by the compliant legacy media, the arts and entertainment industry, and social media.  Whereas it may be easier to control media propaganda in a totalitarian regime, a closed K-12 or college setting can be as effective.  All of these media influencers zealously suppress any negative information that questions the narrative.  Freedom of speech is their most feared enemy. 

Not all people exiting the education system and entering the real world have been brainwashed enough to go along with the woke narrative.  The people who most easily resist the manipulation are those holding sincere religious beliefs or otherwise capable of critical thinking.  These tend to be the students who remain silent and stay in the shadows until after graduation.  True believers are more visible.  They are the people who take their little kids to drag queen shows, gay pride parades, actively participate in pro-choice protests, and other leftist causes.  Others can be spotted still wearing their COVID mask outdoors while walking, jogging, or driving alone.  All true believers fear opposing facts or opinions and are prone to anger, sometimes justifying atrocities that protect their belief.  Debating these people is futile.

This tendency toward extreme intolerance suggests there is something stronger than mere groupthink at work.  An insightful article by Mattius Desmet, professor of psychology at Ghent University, provides a clue.  His insights draw from his book; The Psychology of Totalitarianism and highlight the role played by a type of extreme psychosis he called ‘mass formation’:

“It is a specific kind of group formation that makes people radically blind to everything that goes against what the group believes in. In this way, they take the most absurd beliefs for granted.
