We let TRAs pull our corporate donors out from under us.

This would have happened whatever we liked it or not, as these organizations are only interested on profit and nothing else.

Let's face it: LGB aren't as profitable as the T, there's no industry to be built around LGB questions and the big donors know that.

The corporate donors are simply continuing to support organizations like HRC and GLAAD, organizations that formerly served LGB interests. It's the organizations like HRC and GLAAD that have shifted their mission. The corporate donors just continue to write checks. We know that the HRC and GLAAD have shifted their missions to keep the money coming in, but to the rest of the world, they are simply the face of the LGBTQ movement.

And even among the LGB, they still have strong support.
