Yeah... to add another angle to this...

I’m both American and another nationality, and I’ve lived in both the US and my other country in both my childhood and my adult life. In my other country (a very conservative Asian country), I’ve met Americans on State Department grants such as Fulbright and I think other grants too (I don’t remember the names of the other grants though other than Fulbright which is the biggest one) who engage in trans activism. They almost never speak the language well, and have little understanding of the local culture. They have absolutely no idea how to frame their activism in a way that people from my country would understand... for example met one activist who kept using the untranslated English word feminism and getting upset no one understood, but feminism isn’t really a word in my language. It’s pretty funny to watch because they all see themselves as martyrs spreading trans ideology in other countries but it completely backfires and no one but the most westernized English speaking America worshipping locals takes them seriously/my friends from here are nice to their faces but talk shit about them behind their back, but it’s also infuriating to know they’re basically engaging in imperialism with State Department $$$ and don’t see it. And there are literally SO MANY of them. I think Fulbright grants last for a year and every year there are new trans activists who barely speak the local language and don’t understand the local culture showing up in my country.
