How did we get to this?

"Nearly a third, or 28%, of Gen Z adults in the United States identify as lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender or queer"

1.  Normalized mental illness
2.  Villainized being white and not mentally ill
3.  Convinced a generation they were the oppressors & the oppressed were cool
4.  Said you can "identify as" oppressed  
 5. nearly a century of coercing children to revere authority without question 
 Created a social norm whereby social ‘credit’ was heaped on LGBT. They became the elite- while more normal (as in biologically normal) were made the enemy.  Vilified.

This is an illness- a societal mental illness of luxuriance. Munchausen bi-proxy where these kids are ‘collected’ like tokens in video game. 
 5. All of the above as taught my our federalized schools and colleges. 
 Because most on both "sides " have engaged in authority worship...

Which is just another form of (drum roll) Idolatry... 
 It is not just the kids identifying, but the society that goes along with it. The full-grown adults that suddenly think this is o.k.

Demonic deception. 
 Fiat sexuality? 
 Not a bad assessment.  
 It's not really new though is it? Rather it's just that the level of disconnection from reality wasn't quite as attainable for previous empires, they were still far closer to the natural world so the feedback was more immediate... 
 More immediate but less dramatic than the correction when it goes on longer & further.
