I’ve been to GDC. Definitely a blue haired leftist vibe with a lot of attendees. And also “I can’t afford to be detained for months nor do I want to subject myself to that” vibe as well.

Plus America also committed a genocide in Palestine and now is doing ww3. Idk. I think the networking parties will be less fun but we’ll see.
