Tells you all you need to know?

BasedCon will run for its third year this September, at a hotel in Michigan. The event's exact location is not public for security reasons, its website states.

Exactly. If that doesn't set off alarm bells that what you're about to do is wrong, nothing will.

Yeah, like those darned underground railroad organizers, why couldn't they have realized what they were doing was wrong???

Get your logic straight, this says way more about those that oppose this event than the event itself.

Did you just compare guys doing the whole "why can't we say racist things without being accused of being racist" with the people literally risking their lives to free slaves?

That made sense to you?

Looks like we're still making stuff up in order to completely miss the point.

What did I make up? The purpose of the convention, or what the underground railroad did?

One is at worst a minor exaggeration.
