Maybe don't go to Arisia this year

[squirrelitude]

A fairly upsetting post by a former member of the Arisia board on repeated mishandling and ignoring of reported conduct issues:

"Why I’m Not At Arisia Anymore: My Rapist is President. Again."

I don't go to Arisia anyway, but I know a bunch of you do, so I wanted to give it a bit of a signal boost.

Holy _shit_.

The rapist in question is the person I've been working under for the last two years at con, and I am furious at having _yet another_ department of Arisia be ruined for me as a volunteer by assholes raping my friends.

Thank you for the signal boost.

WTF. They are a worse bunch of assholes than I could have possibly imagined. Thinking about how to deal with this. I may just have to go to a concom and corporate meeting to stand up and demand if they are going to keep their resident rapist running the safety team.

Fuck.
