I'm getting a little tired of Hexbear shitting on the Burning Man situation. (hexbear.net)

Pyramid Lake is now a fully autonomous collective in Nevada. Hexbear users are sitting in their nice, air-conditioned, bedrooms while actual workers are out there building community support during a disaster. They are pooling resources, rationing, and helping one another survive. I thought the point was to have support, albeit critical, for AES, but I guess not. Burning Man is closer to Marx's ideal socialist state than China ever will be.

Can we just defederate from them already? What is the point in continuing to exist with people who actively spew hatred and misinformation about our comrades in Nevada?

Well, I'm not shitting on them, but I am wondering why they actually attended burning man this year after it was knows days before that it would be a mud fest due to all the rain.

There were pictures making the round of the festival area being hip-high under water. Did they really believe "oh, in three days it will all be dry again"?

They tend to believe in woo like The Secret and believe billionaires will soon bring techno-heaven and techno-rapture, so why would they be wise about rainfall?
