I consider these kinds of events to be nearly useless symbolism, preaching to the choir.
I do accept that these events are useful as means to meet others, but one should not expect these events to have even the slightest impact on the maga/white-nationalist/musk-ites... Nor do I think they have much impact on those who are in "the middle" and do not particularly engage in politics.
