I'm out of the loop. Did LGB alliance say anything against Mermaids or other orgs? Or is the beef just that it's a non trans charity and thus dirty infidels?

Not particularly, they're just cutting into their bottom line, both through their mere existence and their actions. Turns out when your whole business model is based on "If you feel uncomfortable in your body, get radical surgery to change that" someone saying "Actually, maybe you should learn to be comfortable in your body, especially if your discomfort is being caused by your sexuality" is dangerous to your profit. Organisations like Stonewall & Mermaids have pretty much had it out for them from day one, in part because they can't stand gay people who won't toe the ideological line

Definitely. I guess also TQ+ is nothing without the other letters attached. An LGB charity would likely get a good chunk of the stream by sheer numbers. But ya know, I think it's probably for the best. Its an extremely inflated bubble and other gays I know are sick of everything gay gradually turning trans.
