I'm glad to hear this. LGB Alliance has been earning my respect and is distinguishing itself as LGB-focused and against gender identity ideology but not in favor of one particular system of belief a la the radfems. In contrast, I think Get the L Out may be explicitly radfem. So what this tells me is that JK Rowling can see that there are non-radfem LGB people that have distinct interests in opposing gender identity ideology, namely the homophobia underlying it.

I hope so! I've been wondering about the extent to which JKR agrees with radfem beliefs. I am thrilled she platformed LGB Alliance; I am not thrilled she platformed Julie Bindel, a homophobic/biphobic "political lesbian" who doesn't seem to understand that monosexuals exist.
