There's an article from the New York Times in which trans activists are interviewed and talk openly about how they targeted the gay rights movement for infiltration and takeover. This was because gays (and by "gay" I mean gays and lesbians) had built the infrastructure and donors already. The T very deliberately Trojan Horsed the gays.

I don't think it was the beginning, but the meeting of human rights and LGBT activists in Yogyakarta, Indonesia in 2006 that led to the Yogyakarta Principles was a definite milestone.

This is worth reading if you're wondering how gender ideology achieved a global stranglehold:

Yeah, I've seen that. And so strange that they would meet in Indonesia!

It reads like some extremists got together, made a list of demands, and somehow got various others to adopt parts of it. These people only represented themselves. "An international meeting of human rights groups" -- self-appointed. It's like if the SPLC, ACLU, HRW, etc. got together and wrote a manifesto. These are private groups that don't legally represent anyone.

It reminds me of the way some Islamic States try to force blasphemy laws through the UN. They want to make criticism of Islam an international crime. No. Bad enough their own people aren't allowed to reject Islam.

The United Nations doesn't rule the world. We don't have One World Government.

This seems directly at odds with puberty blockers, unless they say children can give consent:

Principle 32 recognizes a right to bodily and mental integrity, autonomy and self-determination, including a freedom from torture and ill-treatment. It calls for no-one to be subjected to invasive or irreversible medical procedures to modify sex characteristics without their consent unless necessary to prevent urgent and serious harm.
