I'll just say one thing, Biden wants to push the gender ideology agenda to countries outside the states, fuck that guy. What will easily pass I think would be child transitions, because the american pharmaceutical industry is known to be money hungry, also the usa doesn't have nearly as much of an emphasis on protecting children and it's children in general. I mean just look at the chemicals they allow in the food.

The issue in this case isn't really so much that the U.S. doesn't care about its children; it's that it's mixed up about what "protecting children" entails. I think that plenty of adults caught up in TRA ideology (especially the ones who haven't bothered to look into it deeply) really think they're acting in the best interest of children when they advocate for childhood transition.

that's true. but what i mean is that the u.s allows parents more freedom to make that choice it seems where as in other countries it doesn't seem to be like that

Wait really? I had not heard that, is that like on his website or a bill he's said he supported or something? I'll take a look.

1000% agree and it makes me furious. There are certain brands and products I have to actively avoid at the grocery store because they have ingredients known to be a risk factor for cancer and those ingredients have been banned in other countries.

yes I don't have a link anymore but in black and white he wanted to "improve LGBT lives/rights in other countries". Now let's be honest the T is the flavour of the month, and this would mean bringing it to more western european countries, I doubt he'd be able to actually make a change for LGB in Russia or the middle east for example.
