Whoa, whoa, whoa. Its the other way around, they came from America first to Britain and were allied with the fascists from the beginning. Its all just trying to find the next wedge issue and minority to hate for political gain.

Also, Britains TERF problem is a fraction of Americas, with both more trans-friendly laws (eg the US only banned discrimination last year) and the public polling consistently in favour of trans rights across the political spectrum, unlike the US where its party lines. Furthermore theres a solid half of the US that is straight up pursuing eliminationist policies against trans people, which thankfully isnt on the agenda in any part of the UK yet.

Not to say that the UK doesnt have a TERF problem because it does. Its just worse in America. I think trans rights becoming a party issue in the US is why, though the downside in the UK where there is more cross-party consensus on the matter is that that means that there are so-called liberal or left TERFs also.
