Group Chat Arbitration Phase 2
Dear fellow humans, I apologise it took me so long to send this message, but I guess i just needed to take my time to carefully read, understand, empathise, and analyse the conversations I missed, and then diligently craft what I’m going to say and how I’m going to say it.

Group Chat Arbitration Phase 1
Step 1: Let us start first with laying out and re-enunciating the issue at hand here.

While others like Greta, Saoi, Ell and some other young people, are advocating for a change in FFF’s core structural and dem
