“Put on eyeliner” seriously you have some serious fallacy in your stereotyping just because this one dude is a creep… oh and Vance is a creep doesn’t mean all guy liner is bad 🙄
Been done 2007.
Never betray someone’s consent by giving them something without telling them what is in it.
It’s about not being given something you didn’t want from things that put you in anaphylactic shock to unsuspected intoxication… knowing what you are given and by who is part of self reliance
But also part of civic responsibility and radical self reliance means you ALSO have to respect consent. From food to intoxicants consent isn’t just about body autonomy
Radical Expression doesn’t get to override someone else’s right to exist, right to feel safe.
It balances Radical Inclusion with Civic Responsibility in things like the presence of hate speech and symbols. Because violating someone else’s safety isn’t responsible or inclusive.
So consent is the underlying foundation of every one of the 10 official principles
Let’s talk consent the unofficial 11th principle #Burningman

Wow
Remember 1) not everyone finds fun the same way, 2) what you hear about burningman is only a small percentage of what the event is. 50,000-70,000 people would not go to an event JUST for bragging rights. I’m sure there are a good couple hundred that do but not an entire large city worth.
Come join the fun at the St Louis Regional Burn June 19-22. Tickets available until June 17! #gatewayburn

AND there are kink camps that don’t allow intoxication at all because it’s bad for consent and injury. AND there are family theme camps that have nothing to do with sex, drugs or music. There are major art installations & art cars. And major volunteerism. Burning is a LOT more than a rave.
This year volunteers will get a souvenir home made patch donated by one of our leadership team. #gatewayburn

I was going to say… this isn’t a Nazi just a Britt making fun of the goose step.
I feel like I heard about someone doing this at Burning Flipside many years ago. Not that it can’t be revisited. Flipside is one of many of us BM regionals around the world. It’s in Austin TX area.
