While LGBTQ+ and gender in essence have been emphatic points of discussion in the US for the last few years, Vivek is of the view that there are only two genders and is vocally against the ‘tyranny of the minority’ as in forcing children to acknowledge the gender variations that exist for adults.
As a part of his campaign, he also proposed to raise the voting age from 18 to 25. In July this year, he detailed his plans of abolishing the FBI, Department of Education and Nuclear Regulatory Commission all of which he believes have been corrupted and can not be reformed. and gender in essence have been emphatic points of discussion in the US for the last few years, Vivek is of the view that there are only two genders and is vocally against the ‘tyranny of the minority’ as in forcing children to acknowledge the gender variations that exist for adults.
