    You can go way down the rabbit hole here, you can blame Christian European colonial powers, but you can blame the pre-christian Roman empire for opening that door for Christianity to spread into Europe in the first place, you can blame Jews for being the religion that Christianity spun off of, you can blame various other religions and cultures that eventually morphed into Judaism

    You can do that all the way back to the first organism that evolved that had a hint of sapience if you really want to

    But that would be ridiculous.

    That’s all in the past, and while it’s important to understand how we ended up here, we can’t do a damn thing to change any of that.

    However here and now, we have groups like family watch international actively fanning the flames and funding this crap.

    They’re not the only ones, they’re not all American, but you have your head in the fucking sand if you think America isn’t the biggest piece of this puzzle.
