That last tiktok of the jeep isn't from burning man.

Maybe they will reconsider letting them hold it again next year seeing how much trash gets left behind just on normal years now with people abandoning all their stuff.

the second tweet under the cut posted a completely unrelated video and tagged it ebola. it's obviously a conspiracy weirdo spreading misinformation, why even include it

[frejasface]

Because it involves Burning Man and shows a common reaction currently on Twitter.

i'm not asking for pulitzer prize winning work but you dropped in one obvious misinfo video with little engagement between videos of attendees and didn't provide any context.

and it's not a reaction, it's intentional fearmongering and disinformation.

OK nvm this is Fyre Festival

I can’t wait until they turn to cannibalism.

Roasting man

[slagathor42]

Exactly. The Donner Party. But with house music.

I am so confused by that one video - it looks like mini cyclones and people are just walking around like they’re not there??

[smegma]

i think they're just dust devils which usually aren't dangerous

[lamppost1911]

Ah, gotcha, that makes more sense lol

Supposedly it’s an old video - not from burning man 2023
