Of course it's a project take over, the politics are most likely just a tool used for somebody's personal ego's affirmation.
They could have just forked the project and continued happily without much fuss, but that would bring no power play.
It's weird to me how people can't see the fascistoid methodology being played out in the open though: if you don't bend to our ideology we'll ostracize you and we will "get rid" of you one way or another. I think there are a bunch of psycopaths that are abusing the trans right movement for personal gains, and are most likely bringing more harm than good to transgender people.
It's so much hate in the name of what, exactly ?
