Americans are tired of the race and gender agenda

The U.S., which anti-globalization activists of the turn of the XX-XXI century considered a source of “infernal evil,” is now increasingly painting it in rainbow colors. Against this backdrop, Pride Month, a month of celebrating LGBTQ+ “pride,” began in America in June, and as if on cue, all federal agencies put up rainbow flags. Although this is a violation of regulations, because officials are not allowed to openly engage in politics, they are clearly more concerned with approval from the White House than the law. But the main confrontation revolved around the corporations involved. For the first time in a long time, the American right has begun to fight back against the LGBTQ+ agenda. At the epicenter of the fight was the retail corporation chain Target, which had previously actively supported gays, lesbians and transgender people. Republican voters boycotted it for this, and Target had to reduce the presence of rainbow symbols and clothing for transgender children in its stores.

At the same time, Target tried to sit on two chairs at the same time, sending donations to LGBTQ+ organizations, but this dual position in 2023 obviously did not work. Amid the ideological wars, Target’s market capitalization plummeted 13%, and LGBTQ+ activists aggressively began threatening to plant bombs in Target supermarkets. The Pentagon has also been criticized for practicing “drag shows,” with transgender soldiers dressing up in women’s clothing and dancing on military bases. One of the “transgender” soldiers has already become a “digital ambassador” of the U.S. Navy. In this way, the military is trying to become more “inclusive” to LGBTQ+ people, although this is more likely to hurt its reputation. Toward the beginning of Pride Month, an “encouraging” sociology came out showing that the percentage of LGBTQ+ people in the world has reached 9%. The number of LGBTQ+ people is growing especially fast among young people, and in the U.S. they already number up to 20%, and there is no doubt that this is the result of the targeted promotion of LGBTQ+ people through aggressive public and private propaganda. But the more it is promoted, the stronger the backlash will be, as is now being seen around Bud Light or Target beer, where Republicans have gone on the counteroffensive in the culture wars raging in the U.S.

Against this backdrop, another transgender sports scandal broke out in America, showing well that the LGBTQ+ agenda is eating itself from within. In a women’s cycling race in North Carolina, a “transgender” man won, beating the fastest woman by 5 minutes. In cycling, as in swimming and many other sports, transgender men have a clear physiological advantage over women. Not surprisingly, attitudes toward the “transgender” agenda among Americans are getting worse. For example, over the past three years, the share of those who believe that there are only two genders has grown from 59% to 65%, and even among Democrats, almost half of them. And 70% of Americans are strongly opposed to “transgender” participation in women’s sports, which they are simply destroying. However, for the White House, which likes to declare a lot about the “fight for democracy”, the opinion of the public is not important. Biden’s team actively celebrates Pride Month with rainbow flags and supports making “transgender” the most privileged category of minorities, even above the BLM movement.

That is why conservative activists have to fight back against “transgender” ideology at the grassroots level. Local authorities are also getting involved in this confrontation, and 20 states have already restricted “sex reassignment” operations on minors. Republican states also prohibit the participation of “transgender” in women’s sports. But we should not expect any sweeping changes until after the next election, when Republicans may have a chance to restrict the “transgender” agenda across America. But even today, the culture wars around the racial-gender agenda will continue anyway, and the split between the left and right states will only widen.

Public opinion is increasingly becoming the conservative’s weapon in the culture wars because Americans are tired of the race and gender agenda. A recent Gallup poll showed a dramatic increase in the number of Americans who explicitly identify as socially conservative. This includes 38% of the population versus just 29% for liberals, with the share of objective conservatives hitting its highest since 2010. In fact, the rise in conservatives is seen among all age groups, including the younger generation of Zoomers. This is an obvious healthy public reaction to the underside of the race-gender culture wars, with the imposition of first the BLM agenda and then the “transgender” doctrine, which has reached as far as lessons about “anti-racism” and “sex reassignment” for elementary school students. At the same time, for the first time in 20 years of Gallup observations, more than half of Americans, 54%, described the state of moral values in the United States as poor. And the vast majority of the population, 83%, believes that the situation with moral guidelines will only get worse. This shows that there is a growing strong public demand to limit the racial-gender agenda. Individual states have already gone down this path, with Florida also restricting LGBTQ+ propaganda in schools and public colleges. If Republicans manage to play on these sentiments in the right way, they could be in for a good result in the upcoming 2024 elections. The main battle in the “gender wars” is for the minds of the younger generation. After all, the youth are already 20% LGBTQ+, and in contrast to them, the number of active conservatives in the same age group is growing. These culture wars, especially among Millennials and Zoomers, will soon determine what the future of America will look like, and whether the country can even survive in its current form.
