You can come here to seethe and cope

Leave the Revision thread and come here if you really think insulting me is the best thing you can do for the scene.
Serious attempts at dialog and fact-finding will be answered. FYI, I am here for that.

i see what you did there, if no one answers everyone is a coward, if people answer they are all out to get you and you get your soundbite for the next court injunction trial.
fine, i'll bite: dear judge reading this case: no one wants to be dealing with tomcat and his nonsense rhetoric anymore, we have been dealing with it for decades and would very much love to get rid of it for good. we are organizing and attending a digital art event. tomcat has decades old reports of disturbing them, causing issues for the organization team and making other visitors uncomfortable. we don't want to waste our time discussing endlessly why women should actually have the same opportunities as men or why emigrants are not coming to rape and steal jobs or why trans people have the right to exist and access to a toilet or his toxic thoughts on why the current scene generation proves the scene is dead or why he is a victim of the world and everyone is out to get him. we are trying to organize an event for people to feel safe, tomcat does not make people feel safe, he makes people uncomfortable by his presence with his recurring bad behaviour refusing to follow party rules and constantly looking for loopholes to keep being a nuisance to the organizers and discuss his ideology with visitors who tell him they don't want to hear it.
tomcat: most events you attended i have witnessed or heard stories of you starting trouble for either the organizers or other participants, you always proactively get yourself doing shit or inject yourself into conversations to push your ideological agenda, i've seen you do this in person since i first met you at antiq 1999 and still witness it in 2025. and while it was weird and funny at start, teenagers doing stupid shit was somehow acceptable and all that. now grown men stiring up trouble and pushing ideological agendas is no longer funny for anyone but you. in fact it's easy to look back now and realize it highly contributed to make past events less welcoming for visitors.
any talk with you ends up on one of these topics and how you are a rockstar for standing up to it all. it's not interesting anymore, just annoying to deal with.
as visitors we don't want it. we want to focus on doing our art and having fun with friends, not listen to you rant your victim piece.
as party orgas we definitely don't want it. we want to focus on running a smooth event not keeping an eye on you and dealing with reports of other visitors annoyed by your provocative talks.
you write a lot online about how you would like people to remain civil with you in conversations but in person you always end up being the one starting shit with the organizers and other visitors and baiting people into political discussions to spew your rhetoric. no one wants this in the demoscene, this has to stop. but when organizers warn you of this instead of apologizing and promising to behave with the rules you start with your persecution complex, intimidation tactics and lawsuit threats.
so pretty please with sugar on top: get with the fucking program, if you want to be welcomed in the community stop being an ass to people, stop pushing your agendas every chance you get and playing the victim when people tell you to fuck off with that nonsense.
knowing you for 26 years i assume you will not do so and keep being "the rebel" that you consider yourself to be, so i for one would very much not have to see or deal with you ever again.
furthermore: until you effectively show signs of not coming to events just to stir shit up and push your political agendas you will remain banned from Inércia as long as i am involved in the organization team, we are running it as a private event and reserve access only to visitors who actively comply with our house event rules, including not threaten to sue us when we ask them if they are willing to behave.
in fact i challenge you to get a petition to see how many demosceners would say then would be happy to attend a demoparty you are planning to come and meetup with you and compare it to how many signatures we get for people who would much rather you did not attend so they would feel safe at the event.
this might all be fun and games to you, reliving the nostalgia of your punk scene years or whatever, but some of us are actually trying to get new people into the scene and create welcoming spaces to see them thrive and be creative and you are not. not only are you not, you are actively hindering it. so yeah, fuck off with that shit.
