I think thats the best way to describe how I feel about it

2018-09-03 14:43:44 UTC  

its the "nerd hat" equivalent of a festival

2018-09-03 14:43:55 UTC  

hahaha

2018-09-03 14:43:59 UTC  

$390 per ticket and $80 vehicle pass

2018-09-03 14:44:05 UTC  

That's sad I always think of the better days of Jimi Hendrix when I think of it

2018-09-03 14:44:14 UTC  

So Burning Man is TomorrowLand for hippies.

2018-09-03 14:44:14 UTC  

It's not that now though

2018-09-03 14:44:16 UTC  

got it.

2018-09-03 14:44:33 UTC  

is that like glastonbury?

2018-09-03 14:45:16 UTC  

@4zehorde literally corporate sponsors

2018-09-03 14:45:19 UTC  

perhaps having a venue only accessible on foot would be a defense against commercialization. like a plateau or something.

2018-09-03 14:45:28 UTC  

Says it second paragraph

2018-09-03 14:45:44 UTC  

From what I'm hearing, Burning Man to actual artistic freedom/individuality is like what Five Seconds Of Summer are to punk music

2018-09-03 14:45:49 UTC  

😂 😂 😂

Wish I had money to sponsor, but I'm starting university soon so funds are low

2018-09-03 14:46:46 UTC  

University is way to expensive

2018-09-03 14:47:14 UTC  

@tmg copper it says those are examples of things they *don't* do

2018-09-03 14:47:23 UTC  

"Examples of revenue that Burning Man opts out of:"

2018-09-03 14:47:33 UTC  

Damn I guess I read to quick

feel like glastonburys kinda lost it... there was 135k people there last year

2018-09-03 14:51:04 UTC  

How the world has fallen...

2018-09-03 14:51:51 UTC  

world? or west?

2018-09-03 14:52:00 UTC  

some countries seem to be on an upwards trend

2018-09-03 14:52:07 UTC  

I mean, to be fair there's still good artistic events. Metal concerts are still booming

2018-09-03 14:52:24 UTC  

True

2018-09-03 14:53:22 UTC  

seems like the so called "culture war" is trying to change value from capital to social status

2018-09-03 14:54:03 UTC  

feels like that study about baby girls looking more towards people and baby boys looking more towards objects and systems might be relevant

2018-09-03 14:54:14 UTC  

A lot of people are being lifted out of poverty apparently.

2018-09-03 14:54:21 UTC  

I don't think everything is falling.

2018-09-03 14:54:56 UTC  

maybe with more women in high places the west shifts from valuing capital to more of a social status kinda thing being more important

2018-09-03 14:55:18 UTC  

until its somewhere in the centre

2018-09-03 14:56:09 UTC  

which is where a communist system would work better for them... where money is less important than status

the meritocracy comes from who merits higher social merit

2018-09-03 14:57:06 UTC  

or "becomes" rather

Why does youtube even have thumbs down in the comment section anymore
