Is she against population control, liberalism, the ToE, science, or just whackjobs on the other side of the aisle? A lot of steam in this essay, but nothing that really cooks, if you get my meaning.
In my experience, things just happen given the right circumstances.
In Europe Communism and Fascism were a direct result of the failures of the old ruling classes. Coupled with a horrific war which devastated whole parts of Europe, killed millions, broke up old empires, and on top of that war we had a devastating depression.
There would of been no need for a civil rights movement in America if blacks did have equal rights, but they didn't so they had to fight for them.
Rather than conspiracy I believe in the rule of cause and effect.
Seen it in Africa, North Ireland and the Balkans.
Without this 'plague' who would be here to care?
She missed the whole Communist Humanist Secularist Evolutionist plot to fluoridate the water supply.

The woman is insecure and lashing out at all that keeps her awake at night.
The civil rights movement was an attack "against childhood and childhood innocence"? This is really poor writing.
This is the best overview of the negative direction(s) killing America that I have ever seen put together. And I really mean "together".
Just because she doesn't have a neat ribbon-with-bow or convenient handle sticking out doesn't mean that this isn't a coherent contribution to our understanding of what we are up against.
She is right; she is lucid; she is believable - she's onto something and it's sinister and palpable today.
All she left out was negativism's latest tool: the Islamic death religion.
BTTT
Bump!
Note well, leftists are decievers (of others certainly, but typically also of themselves) when they use the word "social." If you ask a leftist the difference between "society" and "government" they will not know. They think of them as synonyms - except that they think that "society" has a positive connotation, and they have historically gotten away with saying "soceity should" (e.g., feed all its children) when they mean nothing other than "government should."It is true that society should feed all its children - and society does. Society, in the form of parents, feed children. Government is part of society too - but it has the negative function of punishing parents who do not feed their children. And government does so, primarily, by removing from such parents the authority over their children which they abused by keeping them ill-fed.
The leftist actually (in his own mind) impeaches society wholesale, and advocates that the authority to (in the example) feed the children be taken from all parents on the grounds that some children are not well nourished. The problem being, that the government does things at best only middling well - and when the government does it, as Mark Steyn notes, no one else will do it.
Impeaching all (the rest of) society is heady stuff - just think how important you are if you are calling the whole of the rest of society to account! It must be addictive, or there wouldn't be nearly as much of it to be seen among otherwise sensible-seeming people.
Yea, so?
That was my first experience of American conspiracy theories.
I find America to be awash with conspiracy theories on the right as well as on the left, with people happy to believe in them as long as it fits in with there world view.
As in "social conservatives"
"for our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the powers, against the world forces of this darkness, against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places."
Ephesians 6:12
St. Justin Popovic observed that the roots of this problem are even deeper than the so-called 'Enlightenment'.
Nice job.
Only when you get all the pieces of the puzzle together can you see the "big picture", albeit some are blind regardless of how clear the vision is..
