The entire concept of “allyship” undermines the goals of any struggle for Civil Rights.
“I’ll let you help fight for my cause, if you sit over there at that other table, and take orders from me like a dog, and hey, remember, we will never be united, we will never be on the same team — when I am done with you, we have nothing together.”
I’m a cis guy happy to argue for trans rights, and and happy to educate others… but I’m not any “ally”, I’m on the larger team for Civil Rights, not on the junior varsity little league of one specific activist on a power trip.
