Yes, exactly.
I’m involved with several gay organizations - one professional and one centered around gay athletics.
In both cases there are a small group of activists that are trying to erase gay and lesbian identity, and all mentions of gender, from the org to be more trans-inclusive.
In one case a trans board member didn’t feel represented by the organization name because they are straight with their new gender identity. And for this they demanded the org with thousands of gay members should be renamed.
People were afraid to push back out of fear of being labeled transphobic.
