In the wake of the of the recent mass shooting at the Nashville based Covenant Christian School in which three children and three staff were murdered by a trans activist (a biological woman named Audrey Hale) one would think that questions of mental health would be at the forefront of the discussion on what exactly happened. However, not surprisingly, Hale is instead being treated as a “victim” herself among leftists – A victim of society and a victim of an insidious anti-trans “genocide” that activists assure us is happening everywhere in America even though we can’t seem to find any evidence of it.
The political left has gone into overdrive in order to do spin control on the shooting, with pro-trans propaganda being flooded into every information venue by multiple corporations and government agencies. They are seeking to bury the lead story, and, much like pride month, saturate the market with a narrative of grievances and victimhood.
Some on the political left have even applauded Hale as a kind of folk hero. Others in the trans community have warned that we “will respect them,” otherwise we might be responsible for even more trans people going insane and killing even more children. They have even turned Hale’s attack into an excuse for gun bans. The leftists created a monster, and now they are using the destruction wrought by that monster to their advantage.
I am not one to jump on political motives every time there is a shooting, but in the case of Audrey Hale I think it is clear that her ideology was the driver for the attack. There is a reason why her manifesto found at the scene has yet to be released by authorities.
White House Press Secretary, Karine Jean-Pierre defended the “courage” of trans activists rather than noting the courage of the victims at Covenant, including a little girl who was shot trying to warn the rest of the school about the impending slaughter. Pierre described the trans movement as “under attack” by Republicans. I believe this is a deliberate message to other trans lunatics that it’s open season on conservatives or anyone else that doesn’t agree with their delusions.
This has been the ongoing narrative for the past few years: “Trans people are under attack” and thus all of their behavior no matter how criminal is justifiable because they are “defending themselves.” But are they really under attack? What are they defending themselves from? Where is this “trans genocide” we keep hearing about? Surely, there must be numerous examples of trans people being beaten or murdered in the streets if there is a nationwide war on them?
The reality is that the grievance culture surrounding the trans movement is utter garbage – Their victimhood is a fantasy. There is no trans genocide. In fact, in every aspect of moral compass and conscience trans activists display a level of villainy not seen in America in many generations. Here are the reasons why the notion of trans people victimhood is a lie.
Americans Defending Themselves Against Leftist Deconstruction Is Not The Same As Americans Attacking Trans People
The political left in general is fond of bragging about their intention to “deconstruct” American society, history, heritage, principles, etc. This is no secret, they blather about it constantly in their own books, articles and social media.
The thing is, if you’re going to engage in the sabotage of a society built on hundreds of years of collected principles and moral foundations (western civilization), then the people that built it and who respect its founders are naturally going to take action to oppose you. The peaceful option would be to simply LEAVE. Go on your way and find or build a society that fits your demands somewhere else. The political left is not interested in peaceful solutions, though.
Trans extremists use a classic gas lighting technique common among Marxists/Communists, which is to incessantly nip and bite at the heels of the people they want to destroy, and when those people finally get fed up and defend themselves activists cry “The fascists are victimizing us!” and demand more power as social recompense. It’s called “provocateuring”, and this tactic ONLY works in nations where liberty is held up as a defining value. The idea is to use our own love of freedom against us.
If conservatives and western society were actually fascist as these people claim, there would be no debate about grievances, they would have been annihilated a long time ago.
In the case red states, the line in the sand was our children and our public schools. Trans activists continue to cross that line by targeting minors with sexualized books (some of them highly pornographic), sexualized lessons, and gender identity propaganda with no basis in scientific reality.
Then there is the effort to pressure children into gender-bending treatments and surgeries. Children do not have the intelligence or reasoning to consent to these procedures. The clinics which dole out the hormones and mutilations are the same people who undertake the psychological reviews. Each little kid is treated as a trans cash cow made dependent on years of therapies and future surgeries. This is not humanitarian, this is criminal.
Trans Activists: We would have left you alone if you had stayed away from the kids and let them be kids. But since you refuse to listen, we are going to have to bitch slap you with a reality check. This means more state legislation blocking drag shows for minors, blocking gender ideology in schools and blocking gender-based procedures for kids. Exposing children to mental illness and sexual fetishes is wrong. Kids cannot consent.
Trans Activism Is Not A Civil Rights Movement – It’s A Political Extremist Movement
It’s important for the trans movement to understand that they are only 0.4% of the overall population. The other 99.6% of the world is not here to adapt to them, they will have to adapt to us. In the case of the US, trans people and those that identify as LGBT have all the same legal rights as any other Americans. They have done very well for themselves here.
The reality is trans activists are rebels without a cause, unless you stop and consider that their cause is not about rights but special privileges and power. They are a mere extension of a wider political agenda. Their strategy is to make constant demands for reparations as victims, and when those demands are met they make more demands until there is nothing left to give them. And, if you criticize them for their gluttony and power mongering they use their minority status as a shield.
The Trans Movement Is Widely Supported By Money Elites And Government Officials
One irony that is never lost on me is the irony of supposed trans victimhood vs. trans favoritism. For a tiny group of persecuted people under threat of “genocide” it’s odd that they have so many global corporations, globalist think tanks and even the White House backing them. Many millions of dollars annually are sunk into LGBT and trans organizations by such companies, think-tanks and government programs.
In fact, I would dare say that the trans movement would not exist without the support of major conglomerates.
Aren’t these the same “capitalist” institutions that leftists claim they are opposed to? The truth is, leftists and trans activists are the happy little foot soldiers for the authoritarian establishment. Corporate elites give them money and spread their ideology through marketing, and in return trans activists act as a weaponized mob to attack the liberty minded. They ARE the bad guys they claim they are fighting against.
Trans Ideology Is Rooted In Narcissism
Despite the invasion of gender ideologues into scientific circles, you will still find some honest studies and analysis on the mental health of trans people. The rate of comorbidity disorders related to gender dysphoria are very high (between 70% or more according to some studies). That is to say, people who identify as trans often have at least one if not several other mental illnesses beyond gender dysphoria.
One of the most frequent mental disorders found among people with gender dysphoria is Narcissistic Personality Disorder (NPD). The movement itself is indelibly tied to narcissistic behavior.
Consider the very basis of most trans grievances: They say they are entitled to respect and acceptance, but what does this entail? They want people to self censor. They want to force others to use their preferred pronouns. They want gender ideology taught in schools. They want sexualized drag shows for minors. And, they want minors to be subjected to gender related medical procedures that could ruin their lives forever. I defy any trans activist to come up with a logical explanation as to how these requirements are reasonable.
Respect is not an entitlement, it is earned. And, acceptance is never owed to anyone, nor can it be forced. Their movement has not earned our respect, it has done the opposite. They believe that the force of the mob, the force of corporate power and the force of government can and should be used to threaten the public into submission. They think the population can be frightened into embracing and idolizing them. So much so that they are defending a mass shooter only because she was a trans activist. This is the epitome of narcissism.
To trans activists: This is why Americans can never except your movement. At its core it is fueled by emotional and mental instability. There will be endless pain and consequences for allowing patients like you to run the asylum. We just can’t allow you to have power, because if we do, only destruction will result.
What Do We Do About It?
The primary purpose of provocateuring is to elicit a violent response. If the political left and the establishment elites that back them continue on their current path, I’m hard pressed to think of a peaceful solution to the problem. I have for many years suggested that separation is the only answer that would satisfy a non-violent strategy. Some are calling this a “national divorce.”
They go their way in blue counties and we go our way in red counties and we’ll see who falls apart first. Given the fact that far left cities like Portland, Seattle, San Francisco, LA and New York are already in steep economic and social decline, I doubt that leftists would last long.
At the very least there are multiple state governments acting to protect minors from trans targeting, but this has made the political left furious. They want the kids and they want them bad, so much so that the targeting and sexualization of children is the hill the political left has chosen to die on.
Trans activists have indicated what they intend to do about state intervention, which is to become increasingly more violent. The key to the trans movement is that they believe that through a show of mob force they can intimidate various local and state organizations into backing away from their morals. They have done it before, so why wouldn’t they think they can keep doing it?
One option is to organize counter-activism. Whenever they hold a rally in large numbers somewhere, we hold our own rallies in greater numbers. If they want to become a political force and act like conquerors, then we will burn their flags in defiance. If they want to take over schools, then we take over the school boards and PTA, or we take our kids out of those schools en masse. If they want to march to take away our gun rights, then we have armed marches in kind. If they want to disrupt our speakers, then we disrupt their drag shows for kids. If they want to shoot up schools, then we offer training for school teachers so they can shoot the trans shooters.
What I see are millions of liberty oriented people simply waiting around for the worst case scenario – A civil war. But that’s not how this works. That is allowing the deconstructionists to run rampant until something finally snaps; we have to be proactive NOW, not sit on our hands.
Maybe a civil war is inevitable, but the culture war is still a part of the greater fight. We should not neglect it because it’s easier to wait around for a kinetic conflict to start. This battle is about determining whether or not our founding values survive. Not only that, it’s about the survival of logic and reason in society. Organization and “visibility” are important; the trans activists understand this, and we should too.

Bypass Big Tech Censors
Two Storms, One Harvest
Every food crisis in living memory has been a one-shock event. The 2008 price spike was a commodity bubble. The 2020 shortages were a logistics failure. The 2022 grain scare was a war on one exporter’s ports. Each time, the system bent, adjusted, and recovered, and each time the experts assured us afterward that global markets are simply too big and too diversified to fail.
What nobody in Washington seems eager to discuss is that 2026 is shaping up to be something the modern food system has never actually faced. Two independent shocks, one climatic and one geopolitical, are converging on the same harvest cycle at the same time. Not sequentially. Simultaneously.
Start with the weather. The Pacific Ocean is currently building toward what forecasters now openly call a record event. NOAA’s Climate Prediction Center puts the odds of at least a strong El Niño near 88 percent, with roughly two in three odds it reaches “very strong” status, the tier reserved for perhaps three or four events in the entire satellite era. Every major global model now projects a median peak in Super El Niño territory, and most of them project it exceeding the 2015-16 event, which until now held the modern record. Sea surface anomalies were already brushing the super threshold in mid-July, months before these events normally peak. The atmosphere has already shifted into El Niño mode, and the event is forecast to crest in late fall and early winter.
This is not about “climate change.” It’s about the standard cycles of weather, and the cycle we’re currently in is one that has likely devastated societies in the past. We’re better prepared as a society today, but not all Americans are equally prepared.
Serious households have started doing the quiet math on their own. Grocery bills tell part of the story, and the forecast maps tell the rest, which is why long-term food storage has moved from fringe hobby to mainstream line item in the family budget, with established suppliers like Heaven’s Harvest seeing demand from people who five years ago would have rolled their eyes at the idea. That instinct is not paranoia. It is pattern recognition, and the pattern is worth walking through carefully.
Editor’s Note: Heaven’s Harvest IS a sponsor, but the warnings of this article are real and would be written even if we didn’t have a survival food sponsor. With that said, those who take advantage of what they offer can use promo code “Patriot” for 15% off.
The Fertilizer Clock Is Already Running
While the Pacific warms, the second shock has been unfolding in the Strait of Hormuz. The conflict with Iran turned the world’s most important energy chokepoint into a contested waterway, and the consequences reach far beyond the gas pump. Roughly a third of global fertilizer trade moves through Hormuz, and the disruption sent urea prices up 86 percent year over year by March, with a 53 percent jump in a single month.
The World Bank projects energy prices rising about 24 percent in 2026 and fertilizer about 31 percent. By its own accounting, fertilizer prices ran 35 percent higher in the first five months of this year than the same period last year.
Here is the mechanism the nightly news will not explain. Fertilizer is not a grocery item. It is a time-delayed input. The nitrogen a farmer in Iowa or Punjab could not afford to apply this spring does not show up as a problem this spring. It shows up as a thinner harvest six to twelve months later.
The World Bank’s own food security brief concedes that the effects of reduced applications earlier this season “are likely to become visible only later in harvest outcomes.” Translate that from institutional language into plain English and it means this. The damage is already done, it is already in the ground, and we are simply waiting for it to arrive on the shelf.
Now check the calendar. Six to twelve months from the spring planting season lands us squarely in late 2026 and early 2027. Which is precisely when the strongest El Niño in the instrumental record is forecast to peak, bringing its signature droughts to Southeast Asia, Australia, southern Africa, northern Brazil, and South Asia, the very regions that grow the world’s rice, sugar, and oilseeds.
The World Bank warns openly that a strong El Niño “could disrupt multiple crop belts simultaneously” on top of the conflict-driven input costs. Their baseline projection assumes the Middle East disruptions ease by autumn. What in the last two years of Middle East history suggests that assumption is safe?
The System Has No Slack Left
The comfortable answer is that global markets always adjust. But adjustment requires slack, and the slack is gone. Global cereal production is expected to decline from last year’s records even before El Niño does its work. The UN World Food Programme, hardly a den of right-wing preppers, is calling this the most significant disruption to its supply chains since Covid and the invasion of Ukraine, and its supply chain director put the stakes bluntly.
Today’s supply chain challenges are tomorrow’s hunger crisis.
There is also a political dimension that markets cannot price. When food gets scarce, governments do not behave like economists. They behave like politicians. Export bans, hoarding mandates, and panic buying at the national level turned the modest rice shortfall of 2008 into a global crisis, and analysts are already warning that import-dependent nations are the first dominoes.
The 2015-16 Super El Niño, a far weaker event than what is now forecast, threw tens of millions into food stress across Africa and Asia. This one is projected to be stronger, and it arrives with fertilizer already rationed by price and shipping lanes already contested by missiles.
What Joseph Knew
Scripture does not treat preparation for lean years as faithlessness. It treats it as wisdom delivered in advance to those willing to act on it.
Behold, there come seven years of great plenty throughout all the land of Egypt: And there shall arise after them seven years of famine; and all the plenty shall be forgotten in the land of Egypt.
Joseph did not respond to that warning with a hashtag or a committee. He stored grain during the years of abundance, and when the famine came, Egypt stood while its neighbors begged. The lesson is not that famine is certain. It is that the time to prepare is precisely when preparation still looks optional.
Nobody who filled a pantry in a year of plenty has ever regretted it, and nobody standing in an empty aisle has ever been glad he waited for certainty.
None of this calls for panic, and panic is the enemy of sound judgment anyway. It calls for the same unglamorous prudence our grandparents considered ordinary. Keep some cash margin, know your local growers, and put real food in deep storage while it is cheap and available, because the entire arc of this story is that cheap and available is a closing window.
Families looking for a straightforward place to start can visit Heaven’s Harvest and use promo code Patriot for 15 percent off long-term storable food. The forecasts may yet soften, the strait may yet reopen, and we should pray they do. But hope is a fine thing to hold and a foolish thing to eat.
