Everyone knows why these 'X but apolitical' clubs start. It's because there was an X club but then someone decided there had to be a Code of Conduct maybe influenced by a previous member of X club doing something inappropriate or unacceptable. Then the Code of Conduct slowly expands to being the entirety of what the club concerns itself with. In time, all club time is spent navel gazing. If the CoC doesn't do it, there will come a time when the club has to take a stance on opposing an invasion in Gaza or something and that'll be the thing to do it. You can't even suggest not doing this because that's also meta-discussion. There is no way to fight this meme without engaging in the meme.
It's the same story over and over again. I think it was around the Donglegate era that this stuff started becoming really popular but that's how it is.
