There are obvious answers such as he's just trying to destabilize the country or is trying to distract everyone from something else.
However, I don't think those are the goals...or at least it's not the whole story.
This ordeal could cause a split between normal leftists/democrats and these marxists. The marxists are going to become the new "left" and the current left will be forced to move right. This results in the current right/republicans being easily shut out for being extremist right. Which means the battle moves from republicans vs democrats to democrats vs marxists. The arguments shift from "keeping guns vs banning guns" to "confiscating guns vs go to jail for thinking about guns".
There are still a few variables. How many current rightists will fight to stay right, how many democrats will stay left, and how many will transition to this new marxist party?
As a self aware conspiracy theorist...hopefully I'm over thinking things lol

Thanks!
It makes perfect sense to me, and it's obvious to anyone paying attention

It is a weird issue that doesn't even affect 1% of the population. It should never have gotten to where it has. Move the fuck on.

It's not hard to figure out, just follow the trend from the past.
Why did they want to give gay people the right to get married? Gays will vote for the party that granted them the rights.
Why did they want to have affirmative action? Those who benefit will vote for the party which granted them the rights.
Why did they want to give women the right to vote? Women will vote for the party that granted them the rights.
Why did they want to give blacks the right to vote? Blacks will vote for the party that granted them the rights.

It's simply the erosion of western culture, society and civilization.
Perpetrated to a large degree by the Jew, but really it's to any non-western advantage.

Whatever the end game I don't want to know what's next.
This whole bathroom thing should be ignored and why does the government even need to be involved? There's no more fighting to gain LGBT rights so now they're attacking bathrooms? The whole ploy is pathetic.

You are not overthinking.
This is to distract people from the much worse ordeals, riots, cities being burned to the ground, assassination attempt on Obama and the eventual global martial law that may be brought in after all the summer Olympians contract the Zika virus.

Bathroom ordeal?

The State of North Carolina passed a law requiring transgendered people use the bathroom correlating with their sex at birth. Huge backlash, musicians canceling concerts in protest, businesses threatening to disinvest and just a few days ago the Department of Justice said that federal funding could be at risk because it violates several anti-discrimination laws. It'll be overturned any day now.
In my opinion the whole thing is to distract from the bigger issues, its plain noise. Regardless of how you feel about trans people, the law is plainly discriminatory and totally unnecessary nanny-state bullshit. The second it passed, the countdown began for its reversal because it is plainly unconstitutional, so it was really a one-time story. Instead its been in heavy rotation on the newscycle for a couple weeks.

We have 3 bathrooms
Men's room
Woman's room
Family room ( kind of like a private changing room for kids or for handicapped that need assistance)
Now we have about a thousand different "genders"
People have been using whatever bathroom they felt they needed for years. If a woman identified as a man she used the men's room and vise versa, with no issue.
Now for whatever reason people are having mental fits about what bathroom people need to use and some are pushing for co ed bathrooms.

not only that. Imagine someone who is "whatever." They are going to want to do the most efficient thing to get in and out of the restroom as soon as possible. path of least resistance. I mean is a store's restroom the place to have a social platform?

I think it's a bunch of hand waving they are using as a distraction. For what, I don't know though, TPP maybe?
