I’m from the Midwest, had friends go to check out the gathering, never had problems. They’re self proclaimed outsiders and anti-establishment and are generally sympathetic to minority groups. The worst I’ve seen from them is anti science and anti education getting wrapped up in their anti establishmentism, but they usually just want to get high and listen to music about horror movies and wrestling.

Tankies and far right would be in auth q1 and q2, far left q3, and not representing q4 labeling the quadrants from top left clockwise.
