    Discussing it with other mods. I have a lot of thoughts on this matter, but my impression is that the Eden House fuckup is a serious offense for the organization. Will present our thoughts to the comm eventually

      Thanks for taking this seriously. Idk what the best path forward is but I had to say something at least. I think the idea of the org is a good one, but it isn't super clear to me how much useful organizational capacity exists either. If it's just two people in Europe, some remote volunteers presumably helping run the telegram, and a safe house in Kenya that is no longer safe, maybe putting our resources/trust behind a different org is a better use of time. And honestly the more cynical side of my brain is screaming at the whole situation, it just doesn't seem right. The aims of the project seemed to shift with the wind (first its help emigrating then its temporary safe houses then it's living openly at Eden House, then its a permanent commune for people to stay as long as they want?). A more disciplined and focused org would be preferable, but maybe that's asking too much idk
