I have to admit, 10 years ago when the LGBTQ community was struggling I was a strong supporter. After all the cancellations I really want nothing to do with organized LGBTQ. I don't know if they realize they are affecting people this way. It's probably all a numbers game to them.

I can’t speak for other contexts, but the organized lobby representing Asian Americans has very little relationship with Asian Americans themselves: https://www.slowboring.com/p/yang-gang

I don’t know how these organizations became so politically powerful. When organizations purport to be speaking for and making demands on behalf of “AAPPIs” like me and my family, you’d think maybe I’d at least heard of them at some point. :-/

Next look up what autistic people think of most of the Autism organizations out there.

You should continue to support the LGBTQ community and ignore "organized LGBTQ"!

Vote out folks engaged in this absurd "grooming" moral panic but don't pay any attention to people that want to cancel your grandma for not articulating the perfect version of inclusion!
