SFWA has a creeper problem with Neil Gaiman allegations and now their forums exposed, one wonders what does the science fiction writers club actually do?
“Then there was a guy in the SFWA forums who went on about how the best reproductive strategy for men in ancient hunting/gathering days was to be a lone rapist traveling from band to band. I kid you not! Man alive, what a time.”
Factually inaccurate. Hunter/gatherer groups were small. Guys like that would have been torn apart by the other males. Conquering other groups would have been the most likely avenue for rape.
What is the purpose of this organization's existence in 2024? We certainly don't need anymore social clubs for antisocial people to get the opportunity to puff their chests in front of yet more antisocial people to impress other antisocial people.
No one can take the lead and turn this nightmare org around. Burn it down, salt the earth, and build a new one that gatekeeps these freaks out of it.

It's Emperor Julian's man-made religion, dying before our eyes.
I wonder if it would be worth getting a fund together for the disabled person who was discriminated against.
Party at the SFWA? Bring your own rubber duck.
