Social media seems to be laughing its ass off about this tragedy, is it because the folks at burning man are perceived as frivolous hippies or something? Everyone I’ve ever met who was a regular burning man attendee has been a solid human being with strong morals, personally and financially responsible, a career. Upstanding members of society for sure. I guess all some people know is the sensationalized drugs and sex. A person died. This is a tragedy for an event that brings positivity into the world. Kind of annoyed.
Is the Superbowl happening in the middle of the desert in already muddy conditions even though people were warned it’s not a good idea to go? Sorry I don’t follow football.
You better go find out so you know if they deserve to die or not.
My point is, it doesn’t matter how much you know about a subject. It’s somebody’s life. Somebody lost a loved one that day, and it was a tragedy regardless of how much smarter you are than them.
Do you know how many people in the world die because of the North American lavish lifestyle? A whole fucking lot.
That’s strangely irrelevant to the conversation, but thanks for the fun fact, I guess.
Just pointing out that their death is pretty meaningless in the grand scheme of things especially as these are people that don’t care about the impact of their lifestyle on the life expectancy of people in poor countries (the people make all their stuff they’re addicted to).
Anyway, they put themselves in that shit and pretend it’s about extreme survival (in a 200k$ offroad camper), so tough luck. It’s no more dramatic than the death of a westerner that decided to spend a fortune to go climb the Everest.
