I gave your reply some thought, and came to the horrifying conclusion that you might be right.

I already got a serious STFU when I swam into the stream... There was an apology behind the scenes on Discord, but still, ...

I don’t know what to think. Maybe I’m too naive again, thinking I would be able to get out what I could, without becoming a victim...maybe even change the idea that dictorial leadership is the way to go.

I assumed that since I was fully aware of the game that was played, I would be able to play along and leave when I thought it was time.
Now you’ve got me thinking that the game is way out of my league... and your probably right.
