Maybe because they now allow girls to participate. Integration is "woke" and must be destroyed.
They are changing the name to just "Scouts" to reflect this. And is 100% why these assholes have an issue with them now.

Edit a word =(
If they are the Boy Scouts and allow girls to participate then this looks to be the start of a trans joke.
I didn't know that part. I thought conservatives hate them because they now allow gay leaders after being sued to pieces over it. Also didn't they crack down on pedophiles in the organization? That is the number one pastime of conservative men.
Lol. They didn't get sued to pieces because their leaders were gay, it was because some of them were pedophiles.
I obviously meant that they were sued for NOT allowing gay leaders and I think even scouts themselves. Google it if you care. Conservatives don't like that they changed the policy on gays.
Nobody sued them over gay leaders.
They got sued by parents over not doing anything about pedos, AND got sued by prospective leaders because they were being prevented from joining over their sexual orientation.
Bill wanted to be a scoutmaster since he grew up with scouts, but since he was gay, he was not allowed. He then sued the organization over it. (idk names, that's just for clarity)
I would bet that this is the correct answer.
