At a very rough guess based on experience, about 15% of people on the road are arseholes whatever their chosen mode of transport. Dulwich are pretty visible and I'm sure there are arseholes in the club.
Do the club read the comments? Of course they do and they try their best to adjust behaviour where inappropriate.
At a very rough estimate, about 50% of the people who respond in comments sections are arseholes. I tend not to read the comments personally.
I went on the Dun Run last year with four (club) mates. Pretty sure we were friendly, didn't barge anyone off the road etc etc etc, treated it like the lovely night ride to the coast that it was.
Will I be doing what? Never really done sportives, don't see the point personally. I like to race but do it in...a proper race environment. Is that ok with you?

Most are talking about this group of riders.
And yes they did block the entire road at the start for photos. They also then proceeded to ride as a single large pack of riders and then to keep in formation or whatever forced past other riders often extremely close(some of your club have uploaded video of that if you need to see it for yourself google/youtube).
Proper race environment is exactly what people are talking about.
Did your club ever read the comments after the statement they put out?

Will you be attending the next kidical mass like it's a sportive?
