I think Pop Gaming Comic Cons are dead. They been slop after slop. Elite slop and remakes. Not fun.

In recent years comic cons been slop after slop, remakes, sequels and slop cosplay and overpriced illegal art in artist alley by overpaid and failed artists. I thought comic cons were decent when I attended and started last decade. In 2020 something changed. Comic cons s had not been fun for some years now. Cosplay contests and costumes been rigged, toxic and allowed phobic behavior. They allow dog abuse costumes and puppets to take over show contests spots which are not fair and professional.
I think the new trend of dressing up your dog should not be allowed and is abusive and unfair to others. I don’t want to see your pet at the show. I hate seeing pets dressed up, dye hair and stuff. I been seeing that more and more lately at events. I don’t like some content and costumes been more accepting while others get denied. I do sci-fi armor builds, military and weapons. More conventions been banning us but they allow full nudity and lgbt smut at events.
I called out double standards before at events. There is toxic bullying and sexism racism at these events behind the scenes. I tried being friendly to people but they told me to heck off, you are racists because you are who the, you are a man so you are sexists and other weirdo stuff by their weirdo behavior. I reported incidents to venues and hosts. They did nothing while bullies and toxic weirdos can dictate and control who can come and can’t come.
To get us back at venues they need to apologize, follow the rules and start enforcing their rules on everyone not just select individuals or people they agree with. I seen total double standard at events because they are friends with hosts or judges they think they have more power. Some cosplayers and influencers they believed they had more power which they falsely got us removed at venues. They started the fight first.
I just feel conventions lost their meaning in general. They been no fun, toxic and too political in some cases. They don’t allow new technology, ai, indie and small creatures to shine. There are too many unions, elitism and bullying gatekeeping at these events than ever before.
