It sounds like maybe they got the idea that you were trying to do wrecker shit. I would say keep showing up to events and apply again, they'll either see that they were wrong, assume you've grown, or they'll be completely impenetrable and eventually you'll find a better org to move on to.
The question, as you've remembered it, has been used as a justification to to keep people oppressed. In the USA during chattel slavery times, it was a common argument for why slavery should continue and any free black person should be removed from the USA. If freed, they will do violence to us in retaliation for the violence done to them.
(I'm certain that Rush Limbaugh/Tucker Carlson/Bill O'reilly types have made similar styled arguments against feminists, immigrants, and Muslims.)
I don't disagree with the idea that changing the gender/color/sexuality of the capitalists would help with gaining equality for all, though.
