Why would anyone listen to fools such as these? To grab their loyalty, and those of their students, would be my guess. Get their loyalty, get their votes.
For the students, I should think that listening to mythology is much easier, and more entertaining than learning physics.
It is so weird, when I was a kid the creationist goobers all had bibles. Now they have "genders," and as far as I can tell, said "genders" consist of what we used to call "sexist sterotypes" about haircuts, clothing, and behaviors. those choices of hair and clothes and hobbies being what we referred to as "having a personality" back in the olden days before TikTok.
You're not wrong to call it a religious cult, either. "Gender" has filled several gaps where religion used to inhabit American liberalism. A "gender identity" is a kind of soul, nonbelievers are shunned and punished like the Amish, people who leave the cult are treated as paraiahs like Scientology, and a whole new special priest class is elevated above the rest of us mortals, protected by the new blasphemy rules.
TBC I did prefer the old creationists. I disagreed with them vehemently, but then they still knew *what a woman is* and none of them were trying to sterilize my kids. Thanksgiving tables were possible then. Not anymore. I can't share a table with people who think Australopithecus had fifty sexes and drag queen story hours in 2 million BC, and for some reason this makes it acceptable for mediocre male athletes to cheat at sports. I just cannot.
"..the embedded commissars.." The Gramscian march through our institutions is complete.
Just wrote an essay on this very subject a couple days ago:
"When Demons and Raptors rule the world"

But they personally are nothing
And we need to stop holding them up

This is not going to turn out well.

Well the good news is Christianity and the 'Goobers' are dead.
The bad news is their replacements want you dead, your children raped, and they think it's funny.
