Then in America fajitas in a sealed bag if left out for 2 hours the frame says throw it away

Cooked food sitting at room temperature is in what the USDA calls the “Danger Zone,” which is between 40°F and 140°F. In this range of temperatures, bacteria grows rapidly and the food can become unsafe to eat, so it should only be left out no more than two hours.

Are we just giant pussys in America or what? I see meat not frozen or cold at room temperature outball day and people eat it?

You can try cooking and eating it. You might get sick. You might get nauseous or have the shits. You might be ok. If it's just you eating it go ahead and do an experiment and find out.

Think about it like this. If you are cooking it then you're killing all the bacteria. So you can't get a bacterial infection from the food. The only danger if the bacteria already present produced toxins, specifically ones not destroyed through cooking. Our body is good at detecting such toxins through smell and taste.
