Do you mean that you're reserving judgment on Di-Ag? I would think any new organization may need a bit of $ just for upkeep (if that's the right word). But I agree, it's maybe good to find out before you contribute to them.

Yes, reserving judgment on Di-Ag. I simply do not understand the need for another nonprofit, but one that has "Democrat" in its name, but which cannot by law endorse candidates or legislation or policies. We already have Genspect for non-partisan info.
I think a gender-realist political organization on the left, one that pushes on Democrats in office and endorses gender-realist candidates and legislation, would be a good thing to have, but that can't be a 501(c)3.
Mark: It occurs to me that HRC, as one example, is a 501c3 but seems to do a fair bit of lobbying for legislation (not candidates, so far as I know). I donтАЩt know what trips the IRS wire, but it does seem DIAG should have some leeway here. Any thoughts on that? (While I have signed up to get notification of what DIAG is working on, I, too, am reserving judgment.)
DIAG might just be a place to go online for Democrats (women only?) to share their thoughts on the ill effects of transgenderism, though I don't know for sure of course. They keep a low profile, and some members seem to prefer being anonymous. Two were interviewed recently on a YT channel the name of which escapes me now (sorry!). In addition to all the things that had already made people's lives a challenge, I can't forgive the way this gender mess has added even more baggage. Why did the Democrats have to roll over for it all?! Well, okay, because of donors, mainly.
I recently learned that DIAG has gone through strategic planning and I think the mission may widen. If you havenтАЩt seen it, they put up a substack post on this recently and responded to questions in the comments that indicated this. I signed up, but only to get notifications of their progress on this. IтАЩm glad they are there, and potentially expanding their brief. For myself, I am looking for a group of Democrats to support that will push for legislative change, and I believe 501c3s can do that, albeit within limits. Sex Matters, in the UK, is a good model for what I am looking for.
I joined DIAG but I agree itтАЩs not clear what theyтАЩre doing. IтАЩm giving them grace as newbies, but IтАЩm starting to wonder. They have a concept, but actions are needed.
