I see you're missing the point of my entire post and also misunderstanding a bunch of other things. Maybe it's on purpose, but I won't assume malice just yet.
Biggest thing I'm talking about is project management and marketing. Most of what I've seen is a loose collective of people doing things. There isn't much outwardly visible direction of the initiative. Yes, there's "past actions", but for example there's no branding for the website, no color schemes, no marketing material, no shared talking points, no list of people reach out to, no simple overview of current campaigns (no, not governmental campaigns but things like awareness campaigns, sit-ins, group calls, etc.), there are no official meetings people can dial into and watch/listen, there's no official stream listed, and so much more.
Unlike that crap the lobbying group posted, there's no page with big names supporting the initiatives: see the Linux Foundation "members" page for an example of what I'm talking about it.
Also, regarding members, it shouldn't require clicking through the initiative's pages to find out who's doing what. It should be on the homepage under https://stopkillinggames/members . A page with heads like the one on redhat or this one on Veilid or this one on Buffer. There are many good examples on "Stellar About Us Pages".
