State Department Pushes US Social Agenda on Foreign Partners

From Liberty Nation.com (Jan. 27):

The Biden administration has failed to persuade America its social justice agenda has made the country better. Not to worry, the US State Department has other nations in its sights for sowing seeds of division. Throughout the US, citizens have taken great exception to the full court press the radical LGBTQI+ advocates have attempted to foist on the American public.

The social justice warriors have couched their message in benign, often appealing terms like “inclusion,” “diversity,” and “equity.” The US State Department has been particularly energetic in its propagandizing the social justice message. Liberty Nation described this campaign as divisive and deceptive in its report, “Diversity – A Smoke Screen for Race and Behavior Preference.” No group has been more strident and aggressive than the LGBTQI+ marketers in the State Department in pushing the latest progressive worldview.

State Department View of Human Rights

Proselytizing for other countries to be held accountable to American behavioral preferences has become an institutionalized practice at Foggy Bottom. The US State Department established the office of the Special Envoy to Advance Human Rights of Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer, and Intersex (LGBTQI+) Persons Bureau of Democracy, Human Rights, and Labor. This office is funded by the American taxpayer but, thankfully, not by the number of words in the job title. The position is currently held by Ms. Jessica Stern, whose duties include leading efforts “to protect LGBTQI+ persons globally from violence and discrimination.” On the surface, that may seem admirable. However, on closer examination, what is being promoted is that human rights and behavioral rights are equivalent. In many cultures, this notion could not be farther from the truth.

To support the US perspective on human behaviors that make up less than 10% of the global population, Special Envoy Sterns traveled to Brazil to deliver an address to the first National March for Trans Day of Visibility. “On January 29, SE [Special Envoy] Stern will give remarks at the government’s launch of a report on statistics of violence against transgender and nonbinary persons around the world. While in Brazil, SE Stern will also meet with activists, Brazilian government ministries, and parliamentarians,” a State Department press release announced. The impression one gets from reading about the remit of SE Stern is that people who identify as transgender are a significant community within the population.

If that’s what you believe, you would be wrong. Worldwide, the focus of SE Stern’s concern makes up roughly 3% of the global population and 2% of the United States, according to Statista. Switzerland is the most popular haven for those identifying as “transgender, gender fluid, non-binary, or other ways.” Statista leaves it to the reader’s imagination as to what “other ways” might mean. Furthermore, the LGBTQI+ narrative falls way short of being adopted in the US. Yet, this group has garnered significantly and disproportionately greater attention from the social justice community than it deserves based on its position worldwide. [read more]

Not a good idea. I don't think other nations appreciate the US pushing our DIE crap on them. Bad PR for America.
