/cgl/ - Cosplay & EGL

>Tfw extremely passionate about armor making and prop crafting.
>TFW 90% of the con scene are THOTS or mainstream normies who think scantily clad anything + nerd culture is cosplay.
>Tfw a good chunk of the people in the con scene have liberal / SJW type of view points.
>Tfw I'm conservative about my view points and very much against SJW.
>TFW I love crafting and cosplaying but I feel super isolated when I try to relate to the scene at all.

What do? I want to make more friends but I feel like I want to shoot myself trying to talk to a good chunk of this new age of con goers.
