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?

    So me saying that laughing at people misfortune (albeit heavily exaggerated by media ) is bad is comparable to whatever the horrible things hotwheels did ?

    And while i don't condone his other views and based on a personal experience, when you are handicaped (mine isn't that bad all things considered and yet i felt it) you sometimes feel like it would be better if you didn't exist and that people shouldn't have to suffer like you do. It's something that cross your mind and you can't fight it.

    A bit ironic that a normal bodied person would call the feeling of handicaped persons that stems from their own personal life, experience and feelings as ableist. You can't hide from the truth that as much as therr is good in the world it is a horrible place for the weak.

    From the Cambridge dictionary : ableist

    adjective disapproving

    coming from or having the belief that disabled people (= people who have an illness, injury, or condition that makes it difficult for them to do things that most other people can do) are not as good as people who are not disabled, or that they do not deserve special arrangements that help them to live their lives and be included in society.

      I was giving a valid example of how empty your "as a disabled person, I think people I disagree with are (clinically inaccurate labels used as ableist insults)" excuses were.

      You're throwing dictionaries at me instead of even considering not doing an ableism under Reddit-tier excuses. debord-tired

      Was your ableist concern trolling attempt dictionary accurate, even as an insult? No, no it was not. I don't think there's a clinical basis for diagnosing people with a treatable psychiatric condition based upon "they made mean comments about rich assholes at Burning Man."

      A bit ironic

      You're presuming so much about me and other people here all because you want to say ableist insults with a special permission badge. Stop it.

        Psychopath is an ableist term ? You can't be serious.

        Okay, am all for dialogue but that and the smuglord bit tell me enough to not waste my time. Good night.

          When you use it as a put down and an insult when concern trolling people that are making fun of your rich buddies, yes.

              Knew it. You needed to pout a little more because your ableistic Reddit shit got called out.

      That comparison is pretty fucked up to make and Ulysses is just being dunk-brained rn, and you're getting dogpiled harder than you deserve imo, so sorry about that.

      We recently had a discussion on here about using terms as insults when they're also psychological conditions and decided we should stop (but like two weeks ago people probably wouldn't have made nearly as big a deal of it lol).

      Also sorry but Burning Man sucks.
