    CW: F slur

    Other behavior at the campground has led to numerous claims and even some parody in popular culture. One example was President Richard Nixon’s comments from a May 13, 1971, tape recording talking about upper-class San Franciscans: “The Bohemian Grove, which I attend from time to time—it is the most faggy goddamned thing you could ever imagine, with that San Francisco crowd.”

    In 1978, the Bohemian Club was charged with discrimination by the California Department of Fair Employment and Housing over its refusal to hire female employees.

    In June 2023, a group of former workers sued Bohemian Grove alleging wage theft and unfair labor practices.

    Lmao, most believable things I have heard about this place. It’s just a nice spot in the forest where a bunch of rich and powerful men meet up to be socialize and be the shitty people that they are.

    It may have been important in a “culty” way early on but the ruling class seems to have lost its ferver for the esoteric and occult over the past century or two
