Remove Women's Liberation Front

Women's Liberation Front promotes hatred for trans people.

They have an entire statement condemning trans people: https://womensliberationfront.org/child-medicalization

By allowing them as a charity, you are directly funding transphobia and neglection of trans children.

Please remove them.

Thank you for bringing your concerns about Women’s Liberation Front to our attention. Our investigation has led us to remove this charity from our service, as it violates Twitch's Hateful Conduct and Off-Service policies.
We partner with the PayPal Giving Fund to provide our community with a broad selection of charities to choose from. Please keep in mind that inclusion on the list is not an endorsement. We recognize the importance of ensuring that organizations are in accordance with our policies, and as such, we take action to maintain this.
We appreciate your feedback and your contribution to improving the charity tool on Twitch.

    Women's Liberation Front is a harmful organisation which promotes banning gender-affirming care for trans children, as they believe being transgender isn't real, which directly violates Twitch's own Community Guidelines.

    They have put out an entire statement regarding this: https://womensliberationfront.org/child-medicalization

    In the article, they state that gender-affirming care for trans youth is harmful, calling for a ban on things such as hormone blockers, puberty preventers and so forth. They also claim that these necessary, gender-affirming care does not help prevent suicide among trans children, which is outright false and a dangerous claim to make.

    I'm begging you to please remove them from your charity tool, as you did with the LGB Alliance.

    There is precedent to this as Twitch has removed The LGB Alliance for a similar reason.

    In fact, when you type "LGB" or "LGB Alliance" into the charity search, this is the number one result. If you type the full "LGBT", it disappears. I doubt this a coincidence.

    Twitch response was: "Twitch does not allow charities that violate our hateful conduct policies on Twitch, or whose organization or leadership engage in or promote behaviors that violate our Off-Service policy." I believe this also applies to this organisation.
