I traced $2 billion in nonprofit grants and 45 states of lobbying records to figure out who's behind the age verification bills (www.reddit.com)

God, I hate posting a Reddit comment, but this is huge. Every claim is sourced (I have not verified personally).

Edit: Well, Reddit does what reddit does, it's been removed. Here is a github link: https://github.com/upper-up/meta-lobbying-and-other-findings

Can we trace who is behind anti trans lobbying in US and UK?

We already did. The epstein emails showed that they intentionally started an anti trans campaign via 4chan that spread so that they could undermine the safety of trans women and lock them into unregulated sex work. Also, jkr was one of their buddies.

But who is donating money right now? There is definitely still a lot of money pouring into this.

Probably whoever was paying him to begin with. The pedophile parties didnt stop when he got arrested. They just moved somewhere else.

My best guess is the heritage foundation and the like. Probably not one single person or group but a coalition of the worst and richest people on the planet
