They’ve lost a couple of battles not the war.
That is never going to happen. The Bad Guys effectively blackmailed the BSA’s own leadership to capitulate on that, driving away the sensible leaders in the process. Something like that is never reversed.

Not surprised. The goal was always to destroy the Boy Scouts.
Here’s the problem: however many evil people may infiltrate the Catholic Church, there are objective rules and processes that can be appealed to. Unfortunately, the Boy Scouts are somewhat reliant on the prevailing culture. When the surrounding culture started viewing homosexual behavior as moral and even normal — when even many Protestant denominations embraced homosexuality — the BSA had few allies.
Just before I left Boy Scouts, a new Scout Leader showed up.
Two weeks later they closed the Troop for good after the parents reviewed the guy.
To this day, I’m convinced he was not only gay but a gay stalker.
The left destroys everything it touches.
Does the new name seem like a group of British motorcycle enthusiasts to anyone else?
Exactly
Destroying a great, time-honored all-American institution---"mission accomplished."
I share your disgust at what has happened to the Boy Scouts, but I see no chance whatsoever there will be a reversal.
Bump for Trail Life USA
When I lived up near Boise Idaho, you couldn’t swing a dead cat by the tail without hitting a Morman. Many businesses were run by a corrupt group we always referred to as the “Morman Mafia”. Lots of corruption within the Morman cult.
Bad Guys don’t always win.
The conservatives in the Southern Baptist Convention too back the leadership.
Give up is not a Boy Scout motto
It gives time to react for those in the program. Charters for different organizations (Trail Life USA) can be put in place, credits transfered, new officers elected, etc.
The left wing activist nutter who took over a few years ago now has been doing everything he can to destroy the scouts...
This creating Girl troops changes fundamentally the organizationas much as they protest it does not. For now an organization who’s mandate has always been to help raise and groom boys into men of character is not to groom boys and girls into people of character.
While this is a noble goal, you cannot help girls to become great women the same way you make boys great men, so compromises will be made because you have to serve two masters.
The current BSA leadership are as close to Manchuria. Candidates as you can find.
Once they “touch” it, it is contaminated, good as dead. (Episcopal Church was same, but it could not be “saved” once the libs ruined it).
The people that run that outfit don’t care. They seized control so they could advance their agenda. They don’t care what happens to the organization as a result.
Follow the money.
The “professional scouters” at national headquarters are trying to keep corporate donors—i.e., the people who pay the salaries of “professional scouters”—happy.
Funny how the cash given to the national office never quite found its way down to the local troop level.
