there were 2 older ppl attending and i think they were from madison DSA to like make sure things werent gross which i think is good. i recognized one from feminist caucus meetings at MDSA. they asked really tough questions and were p good at cutting to the point. didnt overspeak
tho. the 2 didnt take over, and basically just came in to keep some stuff moving forward. the actual convo waffled forever and was weirdly mediated by someone not even involved? and the ppl that were harsh in discord barely spoke at all.
"member led club" repeated ad nauseum but Sam (person leading) was anarchist so they were more harsh towards leadership as a structure but still it was messy and weird
the "apologies" were weakkkkkk bro Matthew was like justifying it for half and then just ended w im sorry bro lmao. and andrew literally said 1 sentence apology and didnt speak the rest of the night. weird.
for that weak ass shit the 2 POC (id be specific but idk) girls that were complaining actually were very gracious imo like going pretty light and really reaching out. esp given how badly the convo ended on discord on matthew and andrews part lol
oh but one of the girls (im sorry i really should know their names) was constantly referred to her and the other girl as the only other POC and uhhh im p sure there were like at least 2 other non-white ppl there, and i think they realized that so they said
"at least the ones that present that way" oh god the cringe
anyway it was an hour of a lot of awkward dancing and waffling and not much being said. one guy was really good at making sure we actually committed so something, and fr big props big respect. multiple times pushed for it until we actually had a vote thing
but oh god what a mess no one knew what was going on it was very funny and then we took the vote... twice? and the second time we all said "aye" out loud?? LMFOAOOO it was so cringe omg the larp is real. the visitors were giggling really hard lol
