Honestly, those countries should just start reporting foreign TRAs and ban them from entering their countries, while internal TRAs should be arrested.

We have to be careful with enforcing thought crime. If a nation's government is allowed to ban TRAs, then they won't stop there and will start banning anything else they don't like, such as people who support gay rights.

It's an excellent idea to say we shouldn't allow such harmful ideas to spread, but there is no good way to enforce it without giving a lot of power to someone who will more than likely abuse it. Mob mentality usually ends poorly. Government control often ends poorly. There's no reliable way to stop TRAs without harming others except by educating the gender ideology away. By allowing free discussion so that the idea can be killed not by a group or government, but by logic and facts since they cannot continue to harm the innocent. Obviously TRAs are not open to discussion, but they already have silenced us in many places, so doing nothing will be better than our current trend of doing harm.

We should be allowed to ridicule them. They hate comedy. It should not be a "hate crime" to mock their ridiculousness.

That is the best way to go about it. What you're proposing is that enforcers STOP enforcing thought crime. Right now, we're the ones guilty of wrongthink, and the fact that thought crime is being enforced is the problem
