Thanks to the following (and if I missed anyone, lemme know!):
kinchtheknifeblade for looking at so many versions of this and hopefully not being annoyed every time I poked her about it again, as well as helping me with info on many of the characters such as Jude, JJ, Esther, polaricecraps, harmpit, hetcopogg, and gaycopmp4.
Communism will win for making me keep working on it even when I thought I was done, and making it better as a result, as well as helping me with various characters such as Jude and harmpit.
scarhaver for helping me with bones, JJ, and hetcopogg.
Joreth for verifying that all the character attributes I forced onto his characters was good and correct, such as kkrule, TrainerDP, talman_corvett, opossum, tiedyeduck, and DonDeLillo.

The idea for a group of interest dossier came to mind when reading eric_h's great Person of Interest - Mr. Dark tale. I wanted to do something similar but for a group of interest. For months, I've been wondering which one to do one on, as I could imagine this sort of format could be real boring for some groups; only a few come to mind that would make it a colorful read. And, well, GAW has been a thing and I've come around from hating it so I decided to do this one.
In writing this, I've come to like the group a lot more (not quite in positive territory, but much closer). I think it's hard to see or imagine, but there are some pretty complex characters here that go deeper than "memes" or what have you. Also; having a group be entirely US-centric and US-focused doesn't feel right, even (and maybe especially) though they're political and mostly are a marginalized group of people. You don't need to live in just America to have your opinions and feelings on such a thing. Hopefully this does a decent job illuminating everything said above. Hopefully you all like it as well!
I added new characters to it and more or less made up my own shit. It's canon. Right now, this document is a snapshot in time and I'm not sure I want this page specifically to either be an open collaboration or updated as stuff gets posted. I'll see what happens and update of my own accord.
