Techbros and other bored rich assholes lacking the integrity to maintain their own stated values
I mean I'm not surprised, but when they claim the whole thing is about self-reliance...
It's just an arrogant and pretentious rich people drug orgy at this point which exists in the same society where a black kid with a joint in a poor neighborhood gets years of jail time.
Was it ever good? I feel like the concept itself sounds kinda cool, like something some witchy hippies cooked up
Maybe. I wasn't there for the early versions, but the supposed tales of the event speak of some grant idealistic rejection of materialism by burning everything down and "leaving no trace."
Which is why for decades since it's about rich assholes having designer drug orgies with dubiously-consenting company then leaving mountains of trash behind when they leave.
In the USA they say they believe in self reliance and individualism. But they don't even rely on themselves to get take out. They hire people to go get it for them.
