well basically if a complete idiot is saying really really stupid things, if you have the mindset of "i'm going to teach this fool something" then you have stooped to his level to engage him in an argument (which is foolish of yourself to do that)
but if you don't say anything to a moron who is talking nonsense, then he won't know that he's talking nonsense because you didn't say anything and he wouldnt know any different.
see the paradox? i guess it depends if you're in an arguing mood..
Does it have to mean something ? Can we not just have intereting human experiences ? What else is there ? What can you take with you when you go ? Experience life !
So this is what Peter Pan meant when he said, "I'll Never Grow Up"! Youth culture is truly dead as the adult children raise their children. Can hardly wait for the next generation. They'll probably be crapping diapers, sucking their thumbs and have no real language because they'll refuse to GROW UP!
You mean like all of the pollutants that were produced in the making of all those fireworks and the pollutants created by firing them off, RIGHT! Once again, the double standard. By the way, how did everyone and all of that stuff arrive there, hmmm? I could point out all kinds of things that I saw that not only produced pollution, but were produced using the very things that you're always protesting against. This my friend is why no one takes you seriously.
Wow! Refuse to grew up, that just a silly statement! Why does anyone have to loose the sense fun and creativity just because they grow old? A lot of these people have grown up and become engineers, doctors, lawyers, actors, and musicians! I from one am an audio engineer who met the head engineer for the Nevada power company. We have to professional adults 358 days a years! I don't think one week to have fun, be creative and expressing yourself anyway you want without harming someone is childish!
It must make you feel good to point out the mistakes of others, so that way no one will realize all of your short-comings in life! Yes I did make a mistake on saying 358 days but I was also drunk when I wrote it. If all you notice in what I said was the mistake, life for you must be a real downer since you only notice the wrong in a situation and not the good! Remember being closed-minded fuck like yourself will only keep you in the trailer park you live in!
I've been to 3 rainbow gatherings, hitchhiked around the US for 3 years, studied wilderness survival and nature awareness with Tom Brown Jr, hiked the middle east amongst other things..so im not bored, or cynical, or sitting home. I just find it odd that people travel so far for bad art and to hold a rave around a burning straw man.
Well, the man is constructed of wood and neon, not straw, and it was not JUST a 1800 mile drive to a rave, it was an 1800 mile drive to a rave with playa dust lodged up my ass surrounded by 35,000 unimaginative people, 50 cool ones and a lot of nudity I could have definitely lived without. Fucking blast... and warm beer.
I agree that BM is very Libertarian, in that it is very much a live and let live atmosphere. Anything is allowed as long as it does not hurt someone else. BUT: it is not "free market" because there is NO selling, no commerce, no booths with stuff for sale. It is not a barter economy, but a "gift" economy, where the idea is that you never expect anything in return... so the notion of economy is not relevant. Also, BM is not in line with "Conservative" or Republican values... on many levels.
Yes, I forgot about the prohibition on money, however everything is still voluntaryt.
Conservative simply means to "conserve" the Constitution, Republican means supporting a republican form of govt, neither or which conflict with BM. You are right, the CULTURAL differences between BM and say, Christian Conservatives is large, but both can co-exist.
I very much agree with the definitions you give for conservatism and republicanism as political frameworks. Unfortunately, the most outspoken "conservative" voices (i.e. right wing nut job talk radio) and the Republicans in the white house have distorted the meanings substantially. That is why the "neo-con" term is used... the Bush republicans are radically CHANGING things, not the least of which is adherence to the constitution. So... beware of people who call themselves one thing, but ...
Hey kool! thanks for showing it. Been wanting to go for years. I went probably some 10??? years ago when it was a much smaller gathering. Found it by accident on vacation. now it's a big crazy event. Nonetheless, I want to go again someday....
"Because I lack imagination, I must travel 100s, 1000s of miles from my hometown to dance to the same sht techno-crap that can be bought for $.99 at a garage sale, surrounded by bad art, and people who think that mud is make-up while in a dried-up lake bed. Then, when I've had my fill of bad art, bad music and brainfogged druggies, I'll go watch a bail of hay in the shape of a man catch fire while all the corporations I openly decry profit handsomely off my travel money."
i'll forgive the misspelling, but i'll bet a lot of people at burning man are gay so ya might wanna show your support for them in a slightly less offensive manner.
A few years ago, two parents went out for dinner. A few hours later the babysitter was calling to ask if she could cover up the clown statue in the kids' room, the father said,"Take the kids and get out of the house. We'll call the police, we don't have a clown statue." The "clown statue" is really a killer that escaped from jail. If you don't post this letter on to 10 videos tonight, the clown will be in your bed at 3:00 am with a chainsaw in his hand (sorry bout the spam THIS SCARES ME!)
What if that lady at 2:42 moved? that'd be creepy, but I really like the art there it's very inspiring, it's like wanting to be there at moment of appreciation.
I watched that whole thing absolutely mesmerized. WOW! I don't know much about Burning Man or what it is all about but I really want to go now! Will you be doing again?
Now this is a great clip to watch! Thanks a lot Mark! We have something much smaller but a bit like this in Holland. It's called Oerol. Lot's of creativity going on there also, but this is really amazing! 8D
The days were just as amazing as the nights. The final scenes during the sunrise were excellent. Thanks for taking the time to edit and post, sincerely enjoyed all 3 parts. Cheers, j.
Thanks Mark - but what I heard there was a misfire at least year's burning man. What was the general reaction to that? I heard the burning man's leg got lit on fire accidentally or on purpose a few days early...
It happened - on purpose by either some kind of random "independent artists" or drunken hippies making trouble. ;) I'm also curious what the people there thought about it...
One of those guys looked like he was on drugs! I'm not so sure that's the sort of party you should be attending mark. I swear I saw a naked boob as well! :/

Vidguy007- Although most Burning Man folks probably lean Left, the the festival itself is 100% in line with Conservative / Libertarian principles:
1) It's completely voluntary
2) paid for privately
3) full freedom of speech
4) Free market
5) abides by the Constitution
