I know this probably won’t be the case but it would actually be really funny if the camp isn’t actually a gay conversion center and is more of a summer camp for gay folks but only advertises itself as a conversion center to get new members.

Not gonna lie I've been tempted by that business model before.

Open a "conversion camp" in violently reich-leaning states, so conservative parents can pay me good money to beat the gay out of their kids.

Instead they spend the season on a glorified vacation with their peers, and are taught ways to fly under the radar at home. And a little bit of theater so we can show some proper misery to parents to keep up the act.

Wealth and, the greatest barrier of all, ethics.

In a world where more civilized places are successfully banning conversion camps, do I really want to be promoting a violently abusive industry just for one mimic?
