Burning Man died yesterday..
Many may argue it died a long time ago with the huge investment from Big Tech and all the billionaire pseudo burners. Looking at it now they were right!
When faced with the decision to put up this year or 'go out of business' - they should have decided to just end it here - with a statement saying 'Thanks for 20+ great years!'
Instead they reinterpreted the 10 principles in order to create new incredibly fascist discriminatory rules (conveniently leaving out decommodification) similar to the way the bill of rights/constitution was interpreted - what a fucking mess!!!!
they literally sold out their own values they were trying to promote! likely reason is so that big tech companies that fund them can promote their 'digital passport vaccination app' in order for anybody to even get into the event.. hmmmmm really?! can we now fly a Johnson & Johnson flag at our camp?, wear a Pfizer t-shirt?, or hand out Big Pharma shwag provided by Moderna that says "If you're not vaccinated you're not a real burner!"? mind fucking blown!
burning man.. really?!? fuck fascism you sellouts!
