Not sure what the reputation of the source is like, but I found this article very interesting. If in doubt, follow the money...

From the article:

These men and others, including pharmaceutical companies and the U.S. government, are sending millions of dollars to LGBT causes. Overall reported global spending on LGBT is now estimated at $424 million. From 2003-2013, reported funding for transgender issues increased more than eightfold, growing at threefold the increase of LGBTQ funding overall, which quadrupled from 2003 to 2012. This huge spike in funding happened at the same time transgenderism began gaining traction in American culture.

$424 million is a lot of money. Is it enough to change laws, uproot language and force new speech on the public, to censor, to create an atmosphere of threat for those who do not comply with gender identity ideology?

And it definitely raises some questions in my mind about the push towards medicalising children, given how the desistance rate drops once they're on that path.

Just saw that on Twitter. I would like a bit more sourcing on some of the statements but I have been wondering who was funding this movement. It's a little too sudden and spread out to feel truly grass-roots to me.

I've been hearing mutterings for a while. It feels paranoid to think the big pharmaceutical companies are involved, but logically? They'd have a huge financial stakehold in this.

Particularly interested in Soros funding as he is a proven backer of a number of de-stabilizing organisations and groups.

This is really interesting. Would like to know what their end game is.
Here is one of the billionaire transgender funders:
