The left did. Duh.
I do get a kick out of clowns like NJ who always try to futilely poke fun at conservatives for complaining about the nonsense that comes from the left while pretending that conservatives started it. It's infantile. lol...

Over the past few years, Western elites have attempted to present the culture war as the work of right-wing agitators. Establishment politicians, pundits and academics claim that it’s the socially conservative who are fuelling today’s cultural conflicts for their own political gain. As one New York Times columnist argued, the likes of Donald Trump have been attacking trans ideology or critical race theory in order to scare and mobilise their voters.
Richard Slotkin’s critically acclaimed A Great Disorder: National Myth and the Battle for America aims to go beyond this simplistic view. He tries to provide historical context and an explanation for the culture war now raging in the US. To this end, he attempts to root today’s cultural conflicts in competing national myths, each of which present a ‘different understanding of who counts as American, a different reading of American history and a different vision of what our future ought to be’.
