its worse than that. From the queer theory reddit:

Extremist Far-right Queerphobic event challenged and shut down by activists in Montreal

The far-right hate group "LGB Alliance" tried to host an event at McGill University in Montreal Canada. They were meet by student activists who successively challenged and shut down the event. The so called, "LGB Alliance" is a conservative reactionary organization known to push Transphobic and Homophobic rhetoric. There main goal is to divide the Queer community, and try to position cis-queers and trans-queers as "enemies". Despite there name, they have done nothing for normative LGB folks. There only existence is to spread extreme TERF propaganda and hate filled gender esseiltalists ideology. They have also argued in favour of "conversation therapy" against trans and gay people, a "treatment" that most doctors consider to be a form of torture with genocidal undertones aimed at erasing queerness. Be careful when interacting with this hate group, as they have connection to other far-right entities. Luckily, the counter protest was significantly bigger than the event. Thank you to all the activists out there fighting for LGBTQ rights. We won't allow you to appropriate queerness in an attempt to divvied us. Trans rights are human rights. Trans liberation is all of liberation. Love is stronger than hate. And a Army of lovers cannot be defeated. Period.

LGB Alliance is potentially "conservative" but definitely not right wing. Everyone is so confused with vocabulary. If anything the trans ideology is right wing because they are obsessed with a strict hierarchy which happens to be different from traditional patriarchal hierarchy. Just because they invert the power structure doesn't change the fact that it's now left wing.
