Who Actually Profits From the Gender War? | Cite Your Source

Who really profits from the GENDER WARS? On this episode of Cite Your Source, Angela Rye investigates whether gender is being politicized as a distraction, the real history of non-binary identities, and if traditional gender roles still exist. While data shows trans and non-binary people make up around 1.6% of the U.S. adult population, hundreds of millions of dollars are poured into culture-war messaging, political campaigns, and viral debates. With everyday issues like the economy, healthcare, and education topping national concerns, why has gender discourse taken center stage? Angela serves as resident fact-checker alongside an expert panel to separate manufactured outrage from reality, bringing the data, historical context, and receipts.
