performers. In April, Build-A-Bear released a “drag queen-inspired” teddy bear. The Chinese-owned social media network known as TikTok has become an especially acute problem. About 32 percent of the app’s US users are between the ages of 10 and 19 — some 30 million kids. The platform is a haven for left-wing activists looking to reach young children directly and
even irreversible sex change surgery for minors is creating an entire gener- ation of kids who have had their bodies and minds mutilated by the very people who are supposed to support and protect them. Conservative activists have exposed hospitals performing double mastec- tomies on girls as young as 12 and prescribing Lupron — the same drug used to chemically castrate sex
compared to 10.5 percent of millen- nials, 4.2 percent of Gen X, and 2.6 percent of Baby Boomers. Despite this clear evidence, the left still insists there is no element of social contagion driving the transgender movement. A Culture in Crisis Nearly everywhere you look in main- stream society today, cultural insti-
also encourages kids to perform dangerous and sometimes deadly stunts. The deaths of more than two dozen children have been directly linked to the “blackout challenge” that originated on TikTok. Yet still, far-left politi- cians like Democrat Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cor- tez have continued to defend TikTok amid efforts to ban the app in the US, no doubt recog- nizing its potential to influence kids.

Just as insidiously, advo- cates of so-called “gender affirming care” tell worried parents that their children might even commit suicide unless they sign off on these dangerous and unproven treatments. Yet despite living in a society where major cultural institutions universally celebrate and “affirm” transgender ideol- ogy, suicide rates, espe- cially among trans youth, are only increasing.

NEARLY EVERYWHERE YOU LOOK IN MAINSTREAM SOCIETY TODAY, CULTURAL INSTITUTIONS DOMINATED BY LEFTISTS ARE SEEMINGLY DETERMINED TO DESTROY THE INNOCENCE OF CHILDREN AND EXPOSE THEM TO MATURE AND INAPPROPRIATE CONTENT AT A YOUNG AGE.
Climate Alarmism
Leftist alarmism over climate change has convinced a large majority of kids that their very existence is harmful to the planet. According to a survey from Novem- ber of last year, nearly 60 percent of Americans between the ages of 16 and 25 said they were “very worried” or “extremely worried” about climate change. That figure was even higher among kids aged 7 to 12. Despite the left’s predictions of immi- nent climate catastrophe, however,
tutions dominated by leftists are seemingly determined to destroy the innocence of children and expose them to mature and inappropriate content at a young age. The clearest example of this is the rise of so-called “family-friendly drag shows,” which encourage parents to bring their children to watch scantily clad men perform sexually sugges- tive dances for money. There is even a growing market for child drag

According to the survey, the number of transgender-identifying people in Gen Z is more than double that of the Millennial generation, and more than six times that of Gen X and Baby Boomers. A separate Axios poll from February of last year also found that a full 21 percent of Gen Z identifies as LGBTQ,
