Considering the Hans Christian Anderson mermaid story it is even more ironically named.

The little Mermaid wants to become a woman so she can marry the prince she fell in love with, so she completely abandons here life an her family to go see a witch that gives here a janky ass human potion that makes her look human but her legs are always in constant antagonizing pain. So she goes to marry the prince only to find he is in love with someone else entirely, and long story short, she kills herself.

I really can't believe they chose this name for their organization. Goes to show you how deeply they think things through.

Not to mention, in the Disney version she literally signs over her voice to a lesbian drag queen. She SIGNS OVER HER VOICE to others. You literally cannot get a more apt metaphor for what has been going on to youth.
