Hello again,
It has been close to a month now and as far as I can tell no outcome has happened wrt Bob. As a courtesy I am letting you know that I do not consider my complaint resolved, and I plan to escalate it if needed. It is not appropriate for people who aren't even students to be assholes in club spaces.
Thanks,
Ezran

Subject: Complaint
Hi committee,
I'd like to make a complaint about the conversation that occurred in the discord on 16/1/25.
Firstly, as I said at the time--I think Ben's original message was inappropriate for a club space, especially for someone with a role of power within the club (wheel).
More egregiously, I feel Bob's conduct in the following conversation was even more inappropriate--it was upsetting to see a Wheel member argue so hard to be allowed to use a slur. Making strawman arguments and ignoring the contents of what people were saying to instead insult other members' abilities to read and count (all in defence of a slur) is the kind of behaviour that makes me feel unsafe within the club and uncomfortable with engaging with anyone involved. I'm disappointed that the conversation wasn't shut down by committee much sooner, and that it seemed to be taken as a discussion more than an incident requiring moderation. I also felt it was inappropriate in the context of a slur being used for other members (tpg, elton) to give examples of when it is a genuine use case for the word--if someone said fag (derogatory) and got called out for it, I don't think it would be appropriate for anyone to repeat the word in the context of cigarettes or sticks in the immediate aftermath to show how it isn't Really a slur.
If you have any further questions or want to talk at all feel free to let me know (maybe shoot me a discord message too if it's time sensitive and you've sent an email, as my email notifications don't always come through).
Thanks gang!
Ezran
