WorldNetDaily: “Transgenders” have launched “a depraved campaign to indoctrinate, seduce, groom and flat-out recruit America’s children into transgenderism”

The not-so-good folks over at WND.com, the far-right Christian media outlet, are devoting the latest issue of their print magazine Whistleblower to the question “What’s REALLY behind today’s youth transgender craze?” Their answers are even worse than you might expect even from this organization, which the Southern Poverty Law Center describes as “devoted to manipulative fear-mongering and outright fabrications designed to further the paranoid, gay-hating, conspiratorial and apocalyptic visions” of the site’s founder Joseph Farah.

There’s a giant ad for the issue on the site disguised as an interminably long article that purports to show that, among other things, Drag Queen Reading Hours represent “‘[c]hild sexual abuse on a scale never seen, or even imagined, in America.”

Yeah, it’s that kind of article.

Now, I haven’t yet read the whole magazine — I bought my own digital copy for $3.95 but the download link didn’t arrive until I was almost finished with this post.

But I read the hell out of the advertorial and have some thoughts on the matter.. Just be warned: the things I quote from the piece probably deserve every trans-related content warning you can think of, and then some.

The piece begins by decrying “transgenderism” as a “vexing mental disorder,” but concedes it’s not illegal. (At least not yet.)

“America is a free country, ” the advertorial writers note,

and if an adult decides to change his or her name, amputate body parts and claim to be the opposite gender, or a brand-new gender that never existed until a few months ago, he or she is probably not breaking any laws.

But now, the advertorial warns, they’re COMING FOR YOUR KIDS.

[D]uring the Biden era of rapidly metastasizing madness in every area of life, what once was a realm wherein a relatively few troubled adults made sad and often catastrophically irreversible personal choices to medically “transition” to a different gender, has morphed into a depraved and shockingly widespread campaign to indoctrinate, seduce, groom and flat-out recruit America’s children into the world of transgenderism.

Oh dear. That bit about “recruiting” has an awfully familiar ring to it.

Incredibly, countless LGBT activists, including many public school teachers, have taken to proselytizing this new transgender salvation to America’s children, resulting in untold numbers of school kids being led into lives of not just unending conflict, confusion, suffering and disability, but far too often – as multiple studies prove – suicide.

Uh, trans teens aren’t depressed and sometimes suicidal because of “transgenderism.” They’re suicidal because of bigots like the staffers of WND writing this piece of crap article.

So why are teachers (allegedly) pushing “transgenderism” onto their charges? Because they’re sad and crazy.

In today’s increasingly godless, immoral and “postmodern” culture, there are simply lots of broken and deeply disturbed adults who are, right now, “teaching” America’s children. 

And then there are those who are making big bucks off of transgenderism, like

powerful LGBT nonprofits like the Human Rights Campaign, which raises tens of millions of dollars off promoting and championing the issue.

Do nonprofits have a profit motive? The money they raise goes into campaigns on behalf of trans people. They’re not simply rolling around in a giant pool of cash like Scrooge McDuck.

Speaking of Donald Duck’s filthy rich relative, Disney is apparently skimming some profit from transgenderism too.

Mega-corporations like Disney have profit motives intertwined with their radical support for the left’s entire “woke” agenda, however deranged.

And then their are the weak-kneed parents who actually let their children be exposed to … men who dress like women for comedic purposes?

Liberal suburban parents who fear being labeled bigots, homophobes and transphobes more than death itself are easy recruitment prey for attending – with their children in tow – all manner of “pride parades,” “drag-queen story hours,” “kid-friendly” drag shows in gay bars, and other events featuring transgender activists.

Oh no, not the drag queen story hours! Which are not actually a “transgender activist” recruitment thing so much as a gay male entertainment thing. Men dressed in drag aren’t women; they’re men dressed in drag. And men have been dressing in drag for countless centuries in basically all cultures.

But according to the advertorial writers, it’s all part of a secret WAR ON CHRISTMAS! Sorry, I meant WAR ON CHRISTIANS.

Furthermore – and critically – LGBT issues serve as the “sharp point of the spear” which the left uses to attack America’s foundational Judeo-Christian culture, which it loathes and fears.

Sorry, I meant to say it was a war on Judeo-Christians. Who don’t actually exist as a group — partly because the people who tend to talk the most about “Judeo-Christian values”” are conservative Christians who think (and don’t mind) that all Jews are going to h-e-double-hockey-sticks.

No other issue, not even abortion, serves so well as a direct attack on Christians and religious Jews as the LGBT agenda, which enthusiastically wars against the Bible’s clear moral standards.

Ah yes, I’m sure you all remember St. John’s Epistle to the Drag Queen Story Hour organizers.

No wonder the Biden administration, totally controlled by the radical left …

Just a second, I’ll let you go on with this, but could you please tell me what color the sky is on your planet?

… is so deeply invested in transgender grooming and recruitment of the nation’s youth, with Health and Human Services Secretary Xavier Becerra fully supporting taxpayer-funded amputations of healthy body parts of these vulnerable children. 

Oh but it gets even worse!

[T]here are still deeper, more profound and truly mind-blowing core reasons for this sudden preoccupation, this rabid insistence on grooming America’s children – its most precious resource, the only hope for the nation’s future – to enter the ultra-dark world of transgenderism.

Not just dark. Ultra dark. Dark turned up to eleven.

Why, after all, would children with absolutely typical youthful confusion and growing-up pains be deliberately channeled in such an utterly catastrophic direction?

It’s because THEY MEAN TO WIN WIMBLETON.

Sorry, Monty Python reference. Which I would explain but the more I thought about it I realized it wasn’t really that great of a a skit. I was just trying to lighten things up a little because, as I said, it’s about to get very ultra dark.

If you, dear reader, think that he’s about to smear trans people as a bunch of pedophiles, well, you’re almost right.

Also, you might want to sit down, because as bad as the rest of this advertorial is, this next shit is worse.

Here’s a hint: Why do you suppose pedophiles are obsessed with sex with pre-pubescent children? There’s absolutely nothing sexually attractive about little children – quite the contrary. But the pleasure derived from sexually violating little children is not so much sexual, as it is the relief and satisfaction derived from corrupting and destroying their innocence.

Dude, where exactly are you getting all this from? I’m no expert but he literal dictionary definition of pedodphile is “a person who is sexually attracted to children.”

The experience of “putting out the light” of innocence in a child is cathartic, fulfilling and psychically and spiritually relieving to the abuser, who has already lost his or her own innocence.

I don’t see any citations lying around this portion of the advertorial. I think teh writers are pulling these alleged from their collective ass just just so he can argue that even if “transgenders” aren’t recruiting because they’re pedophiles, they’re recruiting because they’re just like pedophiles. They get a sick thrill from destroying your child’s innocence. With drag queens.

Sometines the old gifs are the best.

In any case, I had no idea that drag queen story hour was so scary. I mean, clowns are scary. But drag queens?

It’s at this point the advertorial writers begin the sales pitch for the “special issue” in earnest — listing the articles in it and generally doing the old hard sell.

Though they do take a moment partway through to highlight Whistleblower Editor David Kupelian’s claim that taking toddlers to drag queen story hours is not just bad parenting, but sexually abusive. Which may be the worst and most dangerous claim in the whole shebang.

[E]ncouraging the castration of teenage boys in an impossible quest to turn them into females – is child sexual abuse. Same with compelling 2- and 3-year-old toddlers to sit at the feet of drag queens – many of whom, it turns out, have criminal records for pedophilia and child porn. This is child sexual abuse on a scale never seen, or even imagined, in the United States of America.”

I’m speechless, so let’s have Don Draper respond for me.

Anyway, this is just the advertorial for the special issue. The magazine itself is filled with an assortment of articles that promise to be as dishonest and wrong and possibly dangerous as their extended sales pitch has been. Since I spent my $3.95 on a copy of the wretched thing I will give it a read and report back with any especially startling or insidious claims I find in it. There’s an article about an evil cult at Google, so that sounds promising.

In the meantime, I will leave you alone to yell “what!?” at the phone or laptop you’re reading this on.
