What that "meetup" looks like to me is a bunch of strangers who agreed to meet but very quickly realized that the two things they have in common can't sustain a conversation of more than ten minutes.
A report from the last "election reform" seminar held by the late red round one in April 2005 in Ohio, which half a dozen primitives attended, said the "meetup" went pretty much like this:
liberalnurse: I hate George Bush.
MeganMonkey: I hate George Bush even more.
goodboy: Nobody hates George Bush more than I do.
liberalnurse: I really hate George Bush.
late red round one: I hated George Bush before he was even born.
MeganMonkey: I don't think anybody could hate George Bush more than I do.
goodboy: I hate George Bush more and more every day.
late red round one: I hate George Bush more than I hate Anita Bryant.
liberalnurse: I hate, hate, hate, George Bush.
late red round one: It's really good to hate George Bush.
goodboy: I hate George Bush more than I hate a dog turd.
liberalnurse: There's not enough words to describe how much I hate George Bush.
MeganMonkey: With George Bush, I go mad with hate.
liberalnurse: I hate George Bush with a furious fury.
Something along those lines; that's what a primitive meetup-election reform seminar used to be like. One wonders what they're like now, with George Bush now enjoying retirement in peace and quiet.
