What are we to think as we try to make sense of these crazy times? Now that the latest Thing is transgender “activists” staging armed insurrections in state legislatures.

‘); googletag.cmd.push(function () { googletag.display(‘div-gpt-ad-1609268089992-0’); }); document.write(”); googletag.cmd.push(function() { googletag.pubads().addEventListener(‘slotRenderEnded’, function(event) { if (event.slot.getSlotElementId() == “div-hre-Americanthinker—New-3028”) { googletag.display(“div-hre-Americanthinker—New-3028”); } }); }); }

If a bunch of Proud Boys making silly comments on social media amounts to “seditious conspiracy” then what do you call two state representatives armed with a bullhorn — both suspiciously named “Justin” — staging a mostly peaceful protest on the floor of the Tennessee State House?

Then I was reading a piece that stated:

The transgender movement’s deepest intention is the death of the family.

‘); googletag.cmd.push(function () { googletag.display(‘div-gpt-ad-1609270365559-0’); }); document.write(”); googletag.cmd.push(function() { googletag.pubads().addEventListener(‘slotRenderEnded’, function(event) { if (event.slot.getSlotElementId() == “div-hre-Americanthinker—New-3035”) { googletag.display(“div-hre-Americanthinker—New-3035”); } }); }); }

Really? I doubt it. The transgender movement is just about making war on transphobes and staging mostly peaceful protests to show the transphobes up for the haters they are. Death of the family? Merely collateral damage.

But why? Isn’t it obvious? Our lefty activist groups are like street gangs. Nothing they like more than an excuse to beat somebody up.

It’s not just the transgender gang. Our present ruling class will go to war with anyone, foreign or domestic, just to teach them a lesson. Right, President Putin?

Think that’s crazy? Bear with me; I have a Narrative to tell.

On the international stage, the educated ruling class likes nothing better than a nice world war, starting right after the French Revolution.

Yes, I know, the Napoleonic Wars weren’t exactly a world war. But, apart from the usual world war invasion of Germany, the Napoleonic Wars also included a tidy little campaign in the Middle East, that featured Napoleon battling in Egypt, Jaffa, and Acre.
