GSFTW welcomes this Kiwifarms-posting, Fox News MAGA politics pusher, because their staff and board is already infested and can not be reformed.

This Kiwifarms-MAGA troll is the same person who told other GSFTW members they were guests in his house. GSFTW is aggressively shielding him under "no politics uwu". bsky.app/profile/dogp...

Dashing Fox, the Furry Raiders podcast guest who "stepped down" then became owner of GSFTW, also owns their official chat group. Here's Dashing enforcing "no politics", with ass kissing from Furry Raiders and the Kiwifarms-Fox News-MAGA troll.

On Xitter, I got reminded about the Furry Raider whose ban from GSFTW was lifted recently, Chris "Astral" Curtis, who chimed in to kiss ass to Dashing in the above screen. Astral trolled Anthrocon with hate symbols in their fursuit parade that forced AC to make new policy to prevent recurrence.

2 days ago as this story was starting to smoulder, the official announcements channel for GSFTW posted disgust about mismanagement. The channel was then deleted, removing records of past statements they didn't live up to, and the con owners announced "this is are(sic) new channel".

The GSFTW official chat has been spinning out of control, with censorship by pausing posting ability and removing posts about con mismanagement. But Kiwifarms-using MAGA members are shielded, and protests are labeled "politics."

Despite censoring protests, the GSFTW admins play helpless about not seeing proof of CoC violations when it involves those being protested, and defend their politics as "opinion". They deny knowing what Kiwifarms is while the KF troll arrogantly declares "I'll post where I please".

While the admins are censoring their out of control chat, meanwhile behind the scenes they are scrambling to do damage control and accuse critics.

Last night, my reporting was accused by an anon account of "no integrity" for "shooting off" without getting the side of GSFTW - after they stonewalled heavy effort to get statements from the Chair who refused to answer, and made statements they didn't live up to.

That accusation turned out to come from someone on or close to GSFTW board, who grudgingly took my challenge to tell the "real story" -- and delivered weak, spin-filled excuses that point fingers at departed staff for mismanagement by the board and Chair they stood by. None of it surprised me.

They simply refuse to stop standing by their broken leadership, and will not take accountability. Recriminations at departed staff don't absolve them of chronic mismanagement.

I could post their excuses, because funny enough they declared it "off record" with negotiating an agreement of such. They really don't know what they're doing, and have no competence while accusing reporters of no integrity. I replied this way (sick of obstructionist, do-nothing mendacity...)

This can serve to represent the damage-control I received. A massive blurt of excuses and prevarication from GSFTW, sticking by their mismanagement. archive.ph/v7vvI

I could go through this point by point, but god... Really? They tenaciously cling to their liability of a Chair who put them in a pickle, and other bad actors. They don't want to do better. Simple as. (For reference again)- dogpatch.press/2024/10/21/g...

This one's funny. No defense about their chat group member and Fox News speaker being a Kiwifarms poster who has been quite active with doxing another local furry - and he himself contradicts their claim that he wasn't a volunteer.

Claims about being helpless to ban problem people are belied by vocal "no pawlitics" defenses by Dashing and Shy Matsi, against fellow organizers calling out the dishonesty of redefining hate as politics. They aren't helpless, they actively harbor problem people. GSFTW is silent on this.

Nazis will sue if you ban them, or you accept everyone and their "politics"... pick a lane...

GSFTW artist lead statement about leaving the con, one of the reasons is lack of Dashing's permanent removal. Also in Google doc. docs.google.com/document/d/1... bsky.app/profile/ness...

"No association with Fox News". WHY WERE THEY ESCORTED AROUND? Your PR lead wasn't told or given notice to issue a press pass. This made people feel "invaded", "targeted", "humiliated". People were told they were "escorted off immediately". Well this statement refutes that, did you lie to save face?
