its the "nerd hat" equivalent of a festival
hahaha
$390 per ticket and $80 vehicle pass
That's sad I always think of the better days of Jimi Hendrix when I think of it
So Burning Man is TomorrowLand for hippies.
It's not that now though
got it.
is that like glastonbury?
@4zehorde literally corporate sponsors
perhaps having a venue only accessible on foot would be a defense against commercialization. like a plateau or something.
Says it second paragraph
From what I'm hearing, Burning Man to actual artistic freedom/individuality is like what Five Seconds Of Summer are to punk music
😂 😂 😂
Wish I had money to sponsor, but I'm starting university soon so funds are low
University is way to expensive
@tmg copper it says those are examples of things they *don't* do
"Examples of revenue that Burning Man opts out of:"
Damn I guess I read to quick
feel like glastonburys kinda lost it... there was 135k people there last year
How the world has fallen...
world? or west?
some countries seem to be on an upwards trend
I mean, to be fair there's still good artistic events. Metal concerts are still booming
True
seems like the so called "culture war" is trying to change value from capital to social status
feels like that study about baby girls looking more towards people and baby boys looking more towards objects and systems might be relevant
A lot of people are being lifted out of poverty apparently.
I don't think everything is falling.
maybe with more women in high places the west shifts from valuing capital to more of a social status kinda thing being more important
until its somewhere in the centre
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
or "becomes" rather

Why does youtube even have thumbs down in the comment section anymore
That stopped working years ago, it's like holy shit
