Not a great mystery, they're playing the long-game. They justify it as 'wanting to help others' and 'wanting to make a difference'. They're slowly working their way up the ranks of various regulatory agencies and organizations, influenced early on by celebrities, instructors, friends and events during their impressionable formative years. Getting a seat at the table reinforces their legitimacy, either by promotion or, through political favoritism. Their allies and partners are also involved, either as their primary job or, on the side, promoting and encouraging specific language, eschewing previously acceptable social mores and supporting legislative/punitive moves for any contradictory action.

L Ron Hubbard actually wrote a sci-fi novel where that happened. In the book, WWII had gone on for like 100 years until everyone finally quit in exhaustion, then the Americans show up with vastly superior tech and weaponry and try to claim the UK as a colony.

The UK is just a little further down the liberal path than the US, but with the help of the government, Hollywierd and the billionaires we are fast catching up.

I can't wait to see the ads with men recommending tampons and pads.

And how was transgenderism and/or abortion on demand even after birth viewed not so long ago? I would put nothing past the human race given its decline in morality and sanity over the past 30 years.

And as for jolly ole England...

Yep
