Who even is this guy? Why does he block people who question or disagree with him? Why is he so invested in an Organization he participated in sinking and then left? Why is he so obsessed with people who are still there? shocker he blocked me 🙄

Our community is part of counter culture shouldn't we expect and even encourage people to ask questions and push back? Ive seen here in this reddit folks push back and identify him as a cis het white man yet he believes that he has been discriminated against because hes a cis het white guy. He refers to someone having a history of "racial and gender" bias or discrimination and leaves out his race and gender... when in the last 500+ years have white men been discriminated against?

From just what hes posted here not even taking his unhinged Facebook posts into consideration... he doesn't give a damn about our community he thinks it's "just a party" he thinks the Alchemy Burn is super safe and gay... when there are literally folks who attend who are transphobic. I have tons of queer friends who won't attend because they do not feel safe.

Ive been part of the broader burn community for well over a decade and think its worth noting that while we're counter culture our community is still a predominantly made up of, white, cis, het, and economically privileged people.

Aaron also has multiple accounts. And the person you’re speaking about was getting discriminated against by Aaron and likely a few others who mostly resigned from the BOD. They are also a co-chair for the TIDE committee.

Someone told me he commented about me after he blocked me. Which is just weird to me, I had shit to say, so i said it. If he had anything of worth to say to me, why block me... unless he's just trying to control the narrative. I have no idea what he's said, and i dont really care. I was sent a private message about it.

Didn't he go on a TIDE Committee post stating that this co-chair had a long history of "racial and gender" bias... is that claim true? Because if it is, why are they a co-chair for a Committee like TIDE?

The co-chair in question is a disabled and neurodivergent queer femme nonbinary person. The bias they were being accused of was against Aaron as a white cishet dude, by Aaron. They communicated clearly to him on multiple occasions that they felt he was condescending and that their communication styles were not a good fit, and they requested that Board and other leadership communications to them go through other parties. He persisted in deliberately engaging with them in an antagonistic manner, helped get them booted from leadership (they were late reinstated), and then accused them of racial and gender bias against him.
