Social media seems to be laughing its ass off about this tragedy, is it because the folks at burning man are perceived as frivolous hippies or something? Everyone I’ve ever met who was a regular burning man attendee has been a solid human being with strong morals, personally and financially responsible, a career. Upstanding members of society for sure. I guess all some people know is the sensationalized drugs and sex. A person died. This is a tragedy for an event that brings positivity into the world. Kind of annoyed.

    Are you claiming every attendee at burning Man is a tech bro and that people are specifically only making fun of tech bros?

            You’re asking “is the population of burning man marginalized in the context of burning Man”.

            No, once you are referring to the entirety of a defined population, that group is not a margin, but the entire population.

              Ok I understand the context of your original message now. It was completely nonsensical.

                Nope, you clearly didn’t understand my original comment and then confused yourself by largely ignoring my original comment and conflating it with your own incorrect assumptions.

                    If you mean my concise, original reply to the OP, you seem to be the only one who doesn’t understand it.

                    Do you know what part of my comment you need explained?
