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?

The sad thing is there are actual workers. That's how they set up all hte infrastructure. they have poor people come out and work in dangerous conditions in desert hell for a week building everything in exchange for a ticket that entitles them to squat in the desert for a week.

You're joking? I thought the whole point was that you had to participate. I thought they built that stuff together during the festival mao-wtf
