Can anyone clearly explain why the LGB movement fused with T in the first place? Entirely different issues and concerns. Why didn't the intense focus on gender non-conforming children in the trans movement repel LG rights activists immediately?

1) It didn't start with an "intense focus on gender non conforming children" 2) "LGB movement" does not equal LGB persons 3) plenty objected to the encroachment of the "T" from years back but were ignored (and similar lack of common ground with gay men vs lesbians as well).

It's still mystifying that major organizations like HRC, GLAAD NCLR, PFLAG, and Stonewall in the UK allowed their entire focus to be changed. And while kids may not have been the initial focus, they quickly did become central.

These orgs were taken over by the pervs, decent pple pushed out. Then the focus on children: first the sob stories to justify adult male fantasies about "transitioning", followed up by "queering everything". Long slow rot, and need to underline again - many LGB protested for yrs

And the media was complicit in this takeover, by not reporting on the LGB people protesting against this change. It's awful--the backlash against extreme trans activism is also unfairly targeting LG people.
