Netflix used to be about movies. Now it’s about indoctrination. Instead of entertaining families, the streaming giant is pumping out endless “woke” programming, much of it aimed directly at kids, designed to normalize gender confusion, erase traditional values, and introduce children to adult concepts they should never be burdened with.

Scroll through the kids’ section and you’ll see it: shows with non-binary cartoon animals, trans superheroes, and preschool characters lecturing about pronouns. In “Ridley Jones”, a Netflix Junior show for preschoolers, a bison character comes out as non-binary and sings a song about “they/them” pronouns.

They’re not even trying to hide it anymore. We went from “what we do in the bedroom is no one's business" to “let us teach your 3-year-old what we do in the bedroom, otherwise you are a bigot."

We all knew this was coming though, didn’t we? I miss when transformers turned from trucks into awesome robots, not from men into women.

This has been the agenda for quite some time now: capture the youngest audience possible. Disney has done it, Nickelodeon has done it, and now Netflix is going all in. They know if they can rewire how kids see family, gender, and identity, they can reshape the future. And they don’t care what it costs our children. 

And to nobody's surprise, it’s not just cartoons, either. Netflix’s teen and “young adult” lineup is riddled with forced gender ideology and sexual identity subplots.

In “Sex Education”—a show marketed to teenagers—nearly every season adds more trans or non-binary storylines, on top of PLENTY of heterosexual scenes. It’s not like we could expect differently with a show titled “Sex Education,” but every single episode is focused on one or multiple sexual escapades the characters embark on. And of course, in an effort to convince the viewers that what they're watching is harmless, they conveniently leave out the detrimental effects this WOULD have on the minds of the characters. This isn’t because the audience demanded it, but because the writers demanded you accept it. 

Another example of this is “Heartstopper,” a teen drama built almost entirely around LGBTQ+ identity struggles. It’s insane.

Parents see what’s happening. They see how this constant exposure destabilizes their kids’ sense of reality. Studies already show how social contagion plays a role in the explosion of gender dysphoria among young people. Netflix is feeding that contagion, glamorizing it, and making it seem like every classroom has a dozen non-binary students when the actual numbers are a fraction of that. It’s programming them, literally. 

If you criticize it, you’re called “hateful.” There is no winning with these people. They simply want your children indoctrinated, and for you to be complacent. Apparently, the only “unsafe” thing in 2025 is letting kids see a show where a family has a mom and dad and nothing more.

However, Netflix’s bottom line shows people are waking up. Subscription growth has slowed in the U.S., and families are increasingly turning to alternative streaming sites with parental controls. Parents are realizing they don’t have to hand their children over to corporations intent on raising them with radical ideology. 

Musk saw what Netflix was doing, and he called it grooming. As skeptical as I am about powerful people going online and claiming things, Musk is simply echoing the millions of concerned parents across the States. 

Kids deserve wonder, imagination, and adventure, not lectures on gender politics. They don’t need non-binary bison or trans-formers to enjoy a story. They need heroes, morals, and family values. And if Netflix won’t provide it, parents will look elsewhere.
