Well that's just painful to read. I wonder how political a conference could be named before he thinks even showing up is no longer the neutrality he thinks he is showing. "BasedCon" is by its definition a political name, and simply showing up shows you are at least receptive to the message, or willing to ignore it.

I do get that he might be wanting to disassociate the Con from the craft, but if I take it further, would he go to PolPotCon? I doubt he would, even if the interest aligned.
