I mean, based on my observations, I think the only people organizing these at all are straight white cisheteronormative types (and further, almost always women).
Maybe that's just how I've seen it, but I've never witnessed them, I usually only hear about them at all if a video pops up of a compilation of bad reactions or mistakes (as in wrong color reveal, accidental early reveal) pops up. Maybe that's just me but I haven't personally seen much of any other group doing them in the first place. Occasionally there are others, but almost always done by them.
