Would you describe yourself as familiar with the scene at all? You seem to imply that you doubt that e/acc exclusion is an actual thing, but is that based on your experience with the scene?
I’m not suggesting that you’re wrong to doubt it (if anything I was most likely wrong to believe it), I just want to clarify what info I can take from your doubt.
Hmm… I suppose that depends on what you mean by “the scene”. If you’re including only the Bay Area “scene” in that phrase, then I’m familiar with it only by hearsay. If you mean the broader LW-and-adjacent community, then my familiarity is certainly greater (I’ve been around for well over a decade, and have periodic contact with various happenings here in NYC).
Yes, I meant specifically the Bay Area scene, since that’s the only part of the LW community that’s accused of excluding e/acc-ers.
It’s interesting and relevant if you can say that in the NYC scene, this sort of thing is unheard of, and that you’re familiar enough with that scene to say so, but it isn’t 100% on point.

In that case, I request that you edit your post to clarify this, please.
