What the heck, @DenFurCO? Cool with the people that dropped your precursor con just lollygagging around like it's nothing?

Yeah. Just, real talk here, DenFur staff: You're basically playing Raider PR. The leader of the group that played a leading role in pushing RMFC into its spiral is literally acting as a greeter in your Telegram group. "Watching"

Joined the DenFur SFW telegram. Noticed that the rules are functionally,stacked to levy a ban against anyone that might complain about there being a known neo-Nazi hanging around acting as a greeter. With the same dogwhistle "no politics" verbage that the Nazifurs themselves use.

Makes me more than a hair wary about what I'm getting into, attending an international con set on the foundation of RMFC, when after everything RMFC went through, its successor is still pretty cool with having the likes of the Raiders functionally manning its door.

@DenFurCO is fine with racism on its staff and nazis holding positions in its communication, but doesn't wan't ~~politics~~ -
To be fair, no Nazi is holding a formal position in comms. They're tolerating the Nazi that installed himself there unofficially. I've talked at length with Bryant and others, concluded that me and my group will no longer be attending DenFur - Reg cancellation remains unsettled.

Update: After making a statement regarding the staff's continued tolerance of known neo-Nazi ringleaders in their channel, and the Sovcit cheerleader signal-boosting him, the staff decided that playing mod theatre with Nazis is more important than dealing with them being present.pic.twitter.com/j48sXgJI3C

Thank you for the info. We are diligently looking into it. Thank you

"Diligently looking into it" I'm being told that one of the founders has a sticker pack where they're throwing migrants over a wall. Its founder is a "RaiderWolf" and Foxler's acting as a greeter. Please give me any good reason not to cancel my group's DenFur attendance.

On further review, I found this in that same Telegram channel. Please don't tell me you're "Diligently looking into it" when your con-chair has stated outright that we should just "all get along and pretend it's not an issue". I'd like to cancel my registration, please. Details?pic.twitter.com/EmksAPro1f

Even better: "No refunds" on prereg? Good lord, I'm glad I didn't preregister the rest of the group. Maybe probably don't preregister for DenFur, people.

Don't worry, even though several folks ended up banned from the DenFur official Telegram group, we have our own non-official Telegram group, so that we can organise meetups at the event and things like that. It will be good. In fact, as the staff can't see it, it will be great.
Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo
