Hold them accountable. If the lgbTQ+ crowd suddenly decide to "cancel" organizations like Mermaids, you can bet we'll hear the same arguments as always. "No trans person supports it", "those who support it are just a small minority, you can't blame the rest of us for it", etc. These same groups are fine with villainizing gay/lesbian people.

If this organization really gets "canceled", we must not let people forget who supported it and who criticized it.

Yes. Don't let these lamestream organisations like Stonewall take all the credit if they cancel Mermaid. They'd do that only so that they don't lose donors and lose support from gay, lesbian and bisexual people and our supporters. Stonewall would still support trans activism for as long as they can get away with it.
