Meetup review: Be very careful which groups you join & scrutinize the intentions of the organizers 19

I have receive racist attack on Meetup I would like to complain

My experiences were similar. In Cologne (Germany)an American model (Unique Love )organized language meetings (Expats in Cologne). I went a few times but more and more her meetups became weird. Almost like a dating party. When I visited with my thai GF the whole group started to ignore us. One member even tried to make a move at her.Asking in German what her phone number was. The biggest joke is that the organizer herself didn't turn up. Occupied in Chicago with modelling? Her co-organizer Samantha (Brazilian Italian golddigger) got very nasty after I put a bad review (describing what happened) on their website. Blocking me and kick us out of the group was the result. The joke is that this lady herself cheated on her BF on a regular basis. Nagging half drunk why one German member(Adri) didn't want to take her home. The same lady calling me and my GF pointless and agressive. Wowwwwwwww. Unique Love later reacted calling me crazy and in need of medication. Unfortunately i work in health care and see Narcist nutcases like her every day. Meetup organizers imo are exhibitionists or narcists People beware. Also they discriminate on older generations ( 30 or up). Meetup is a fake misunderstanding for insecure nutcases like miss Unique. That lady isn't Unique she should change her name into Arrogance Love.

Meetup.com has recently set up site and country-wide meetup groups encouraging social resistance 'for democracy'. The groups are called "#resist". These groups are free and sponsored by the Meetup Community HQ (i.e., 'the board'). They flooded members' feeds the other day with political propaganda encouraging people to join these groups due to "concern over where the government is headed". The original banner, which is now gone, also referenced the current election outcome as a key motivator to organizing these groups. Unlike facebook, you cannot block these banners or these groups from showing up in your feed, and unlike facebook, group organizers are charged a fee for this site. This is absolute political propaganda and pushing a political agenda on a site which is supposed to promote diverse interests of many groups. I asked them to similarly sponsor groups for unification, but they have not replied yet. I will "#resist" Meetup and move my group to Facebook if this propaganda and agenda pushing continues...I cannot support any site that promotes social disharmony or discord through resistance movements!

We have one called "Spontaneous Stockport Socilalizers", they are a nasty lot ruled by a bunch of ageist weirdos, i applied and it is "pending", still after a few weeks, I went to one event and a couple of them set out to humiliate me because of my age.
At the end of the day if you cannot chat others up or communicate these clubs are a last resort. Ie the last chance saloon

I have just learned the importance of carefully scrutinizing to the extent possible organizers of Meetup groups. I joined Women Walkers of Roland Park in Baltimore MD, a group set up by a woman named Debra Diamond. Perhaps the group's name should have tipped me off--Roland Park is a very exclusive area of Baltimore--but the group seemed to be open for greater Baltimore, and I never met anyone at the walks from Roland Park except Debra. The others (except for me--I live close to the inner city) were primarily from suburban areas. Debra made a point of talking to all the women who attended except me. She avoided me, even going so far as to walk around other people to get as far from me as possible. At the last walk I attended (my third or fourth), I asked her a question about the routes we'd been taking, partly in the hope of opening up a conversation. Her response was (these are mostly her words) that she was not a tour guide, that I seemed to have a lot of questions, and that maybe I would be better off in another group, as she was just there for relaxation. She spoke in front of the other attendees, who could clearly see my shock and dismay at being spoken to that way. I subsequently sent her a message stating that I wouldn't be attending any longer, for a number of reasons (including her rudeness). I wish I had spoken up to her when she insulted me but was to shocked to do so. When I went in to cancel my membership in the group, she had already removed me. I have complained to Meetup itself and am posting this warning for others. Some of these organizers have unpleasant agendas--I believe that I was discriminated against because I don't live in the right zip code in Baltimore City--and it is best to try to avoid them. In the future, I will use this experience to talk with other group organizers beforehand.
