Maybe I’m misunderstanding something, but the idea of the UK as ‘TERF Island’ is because many of the big names of that specific brand of feminist aesthetic transphobia are from here, and have captured left-leaning media personalities in a way that hasn’t happened to the same extent in the US

It feels like a lot of people, particularly left-leaning Americans, have decided based on this that the UK is the epicentre of transphobia as a whole and I mean, not to get too petty about it, but there are few countries I’m less willing to accept that line of thinking from than the US
