The objective is to confuse society and undermine national identity. By medicalizing childhood gender confusion, they create a new generation of lifelong patients \u2014 a new customer base for life. This ideology demands that society rewrite facts, morality, education, and family laws \u2014 to suit some newly created personal feelings and sexual preferences. Critics link this to a\u00a0global depopulation agenda, as seen in the dramatic collapse of marriages, pregnancies, and birth rates across Western countries. The goal now is to export the same trend to Asia and Africa.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Critics also question why this ideology is&nbsp;not being forced on Muslim-majority nations, while the UN system violates its own pro-life, pro-biological family, and child protection ratified mandates to push LGBTQIA+ legalization in countries like Sri Lanka through unratified bullying.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Most dangerously, it targets children through&nbsp;foreign aid, funding, and curriculum changes&nbsp;\u2014 to confuse them about their biological sex, normalize deviant behaviors as freedom,\u201d and suppress religion, patriotism, and morality. A new set of NGOs are already at work now that their terrorist project is over.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Unlike terrorism, it cannot be fought with weapons \u2014 because it transforms its victims into lifelong believers &amp; eventual sufferers.
