Men.

It's a consortium. But the best funded part of it is Pfizer promoting off-label uses of its failed HRT drugs.

Can anyone recommend any articles or resources on this aspect? This is something that I haven’t read much about in this process to educate myself in the past few weeks.

This Medium post goes into a lot of detail about funding of the trans lobby. In my opinion the author might have organized it a little better, but she's done a ton of research.

Second this! Super informative article, but it does wander a little.

Ok, regarding this article and OPs original post: I've been seeing a shit ton of stuff posted on Facebook by a previous coworker who is a TRA. They're bringing up the same shit that's been talked about for years with these huge companies acting as a front for child/human trafficking. Wayfair and Amazon included. If all of these trans lobbies and astroturfing are being funded by the same companies that could be tied with trafficking, what are their next moves? Because it took a stupidly long amount of time for people to put two and two together on it being a possibility. What's the end goal here because I smell something amiss?

Agree this is a great article. Well worth the long read.

Porkies, i.e. the capitalist class

Not even joking, think about it, none of this shit even existed before the internet (which got weirdos together in isolation and ramped up fetishes to 11), if you know what materialism (central concept for Marxism) is then gender theory is a complete break with it, and being a vanishingly small percentage of the population makes trans bs an utterly meaningless distraction. Transgenderism has been quite the effective psyop to render the Left (anticapitalist Left, not radlibs or neolibs) completely impotent.

Hope none of this is strange btw, on Reddit this was a radical feminist sub, I would imagine leftism shouldn’t be looked down on here. It wasn’t leftists that banned GC, it was Neoliberals trying to make Reddit nice and uncontroversial for advertisers.

None of this is weird. Queer Theory was already standard reading in 1990s undergrad programs, tho, so the conceptual framework for TRA was already waiting for the perfect tools (web in general, social media in particular).
