A clique is a co-operative of people who work together in order to wield more power than the people they are opposing. Techies and actors do this to put upon each other - depending on which is stronger one or the other rules the production. Academics do it in order to wield more power than another field and gain more funding - I give you inorganic catalyst chemistry.
Tabletop roleplayers and larpers will never wield more power than those who believe them to be freaks. Does that still mean it's still a clique? Or is it more of a pressure group?
However, that points adressed, it still doesn't cover up the fact the people made an assumption about me without knowing me, and that pisses me off.
