It is so significant that parables like the Pied Piper and the Emperor who is naked resonate so much with today's world and this social contagion with which society is going along. Clearly what is happening now has happened in various forms throughout history. It's a really good way to help people put their finger on something that isn't easy to name otherwise.

I totally agree. I just meant that ROGD is a made up term for our society steering our young people in that direction.

Gender ideology and critical race theory often involved ILLEGAL discrimination! Here are some recent victories I had against critical race theory in education and employment. The NYC film fund, a 7-million-dollar film fund which only helped upcoming artists if they wish to live as women, is now open to both sexes regardless of sexual orientation and gender identity because I complained to NYSDHR and they were found to have done illegal discrimination. I gathered evidence and filed complaints with NYSDHR and other FEPAs in other states, as well as OCR. Read my article to learn what my some of my victories are. https://open.substack.com/pub/justingaffneysamuels/p/using-factual-evidence-and-the-law?r=6512g&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web

Big Pharma is funding the piper. Getting people to buy drugs/meds for their entire lives is a great strategy for profit.

The Pied Piper implies an age-old pitfall on the way to adulthood that in this era is inarguably the most damaging in all of human history. It's a symbolic situation encountered in many tales that examine youth's advancement towards adulthood. In "The Adventures of Pinocchio" by Carlo Collodi, which I was teaching in a college-level literature course, there's a situation early in Pinocchio's journey when he encounters a RAINBOW tent, where those beneath it never grow up, don't work, and appear to be stunted in a perennial childhood, controlled by an evil puppet master. The parallels are obvious! Note that those who submit themselves to the trans cult indeed will not grow up -- they render themselves sterile and, as in the case of "trans men," speak in a voice that perennially cracks like that of an adolescent boy. Sterile, they won't rear their own children, which represents the hugest stepping stone to adulthood -- taking responsibility for someone else. And, in the moving climax to the novella, Pinocchio carries his father home, and saves his life. In other words, he realizes and reciprocates his father's protection and love. Yet the trans cult teaches against this spiritual advancement, instead embracing the stasis of self-love, ironically propelled by self-hatred.

That last paragraph. So sadly true.

You have hit upon a very good parallel from deep legend. Most chilling of all, as you say, is the way today's Piper also seduces the adults and authority figures. God help us . . .

This is so true and now almost every family I know including my own is dealing with some ROGD or what they call Rapid Onset Gender Dysphoria which does not exist. This is a cult and some states are making it illegal for doctors, hospitals and clinics to treat minors. Adults can be a stupid as they want but LEAVE THE CHILDREN ALONE!

Yes, but not all of us go along with this, I don't and never will, I will never be like Dwayne Wade or any parent being so negligent in such a catastrophic way! Never till my last breath! I would never affirm such nonsense. Stand for Truth! We are made Male or Female! No one was born in the wrong body!

At least he got rid of the rats first. The new one is completely useless.

Great article. Try as we might, folks keep turning their eyes away from the fact that the trans movement is a well financed cult pushed by a group of powerful people. I do hope the lawsuits that have started to occur will open the public's eyes to the evil that is occurring.

That's very clever! If a bit doom laden at the end :(

What a great piece of writing to describe the cultish atrocity that is occurring with our children.

whoa, Grandma, I'm afraid so much of what you've so instructively is true.

Hey you all out there, do you ever feel as if you're caught in some weird sci-fi film where you're the last person left who is able to see what's real?

Well, this ain't no film, and YOU ARE NOT ALONE.

Let's stick together and fight this, regardless of what other issues we may or may not be on the same page about.

THANK YOU, GRANDMA, FOR CONTINUING TO SPEAK UP.

I DO BELIEVE the TRUTH WILL OUT.
