David Thorsadt wrote a review for the Monthly Review that summarizes his issue with "LGBT" as a concept. I have seen people on here think he doesn't like the LBT, but it's because he thinks grouping them together is done to muddy different types of oppression and sanitize the history of each movement. I like his analysis that it isn't just capitalism and disagree with him viewing it as some sort of "natlib" identity, but the reason he holds these anti-assimilationist and critical views of the modern LGBT movement is because he broke from the Socialist Workers Party because the ignored gay liberation only to be excluded from the LGBT movement a decade and a half after being a prominent gay activist.
