I see even Taiwan has this kink crap infecting their Pride events.

She’s more interested in labour rights for sex workers and advancing the wider goals of the LGBT+ community.

That's just the thing. Pride should have naught to do with sex work issues; And it shouldn't matter what orientation these sex workers are either. It's like the concerns of the T. Yeah, there are gay and bi trans with problems but it's still a separate focus.

Enough of this "wider goals" thing. This is what happened to Atheism+(The irony of that plus/cross sign is not lost on me). They piled on so many "wider goals" they eventually collapsed under the weight of their own ponderous religion-esque activism.

Pride has become similar to an American "Christmas Tree Bill", where everyone is hanging their own agenda on to the colourful Pride tree like an ornament.

we used to look at the problem of homeless gay youth as something we needed to help them with. Now T needs transition money so the community now has to validate sex work.

Yeah, sex work is an actual problem in need of a solution. But they're not even proposing trying to find one. They only care about legitimizing it by tying it into Pride. I didn't even consider the transition fund motivation. And of course the transing industry would be totally ok with this because then they would be able to milk these sex workers continuously for transing money until they die of young age.
