The BRCCPs view on conspiracies-
As for other people projecting, unconsciously shielding their own actions by somehow making any doubt on their noble-ease into a conspiracy claim, well....

A very interesting read. I would send the link to all of you via private message, but thought an open discussion might be the way to go. Of course, some people here are going to find this information very very very boring.


http://burners.me/2014/10/05/social-alc ... enanigans/
Burning Man’s Social Alchemist and Global Ambassador, Bear Kittay, is named in the list of Caravancicle associates. What was his role in the camp?

Despite being paid to be a Social Alchemist, Bear is not permitted by his employer to make an on the record statement to social media. He camped at First Camp, and doesn’t know why he is named in the Caravancicle list.

A silent ambassador? Sounds more like a secret agent to me. Why does BMOrg need secret agents to spread its culture, if it’s all for charity?

Bear’s mentor is a Silicon Valley venture capitalist whom he brought out to the Playa to do deals. Shervin Pishevar, formerly of Menlo Ventures, has now branched out on his own with a new $154 million startup. Its name? Drumroll please…

Sherpa Ventures. @Sherpa.

Actually, it's interesting watching this develop. I'm just not ready to go jumping to conclusions.

Free The Sherpas
versus
154,000,000 dollars
sherpa.jpg
And in some circles it's the $154,000,000 that is being bullied and is the victim.

No one can "win", there is no conclusion. Time continues and the notion of resolution is just a human construct to give meaning to a passage of time. There is no solution to this, even "this" is a fleeting vague notion. There is no right way or wrong way. But it is what it is. And we are all only who we are, and we can do only what we can do. But that can be a choice at times. There is no conspiracy, no revolution against that, just people being people, who they are, what they can be. Anyway,even though hotels are the future of Black Rock City-

The new BRCCP hostel will still afford the most reasonably priced playa experience to be bought.

So I read the Forbes article on them. Can you please show me the tie in to Burning Man? (other than the name might just be coincidental) I'll post the link for your convenience: http://www.forbes.com/sites/alexkonrad/ ... next-uber/

Do your own leg-work, maybe on the trip walking away like the better man you claim to be.
Yes, yes, not enough information, proves nothing, and nothing can be done about it. Your song and dance is getting predictable.
And jeezus p christ, the Forbes article confirms the information in the article I posted, it only doesn't mention the whole Burner thing because it doesn't matter to Forbes. You don't comment on the article i posted, but post a different artcle demanding that article spell out what I claim or the info makes no difference? Wow, just wow. Same exact people, same exact goals, same exact $154,000,000 but because the Forbes article doesn't mention Burning Man, what? This information, these connections and goals of these people don't matter? You keep searching for a defense of the Hotels, like the better man you are.

Who needs to defend the Hotels when you can't defend the outrageous expense and entitlement that allows you to attend?

I just want the Hotels to come out and play with the playa. Then I'm good to go.

Don't believe everything you think.

Blindfolds are only available to those who've signed up for the Luxury pleasure palace package.

General labor and camp Sherpa's can elect to have a blindfold deduction removed from their pay, repaid 2 weeks after the event if not used.

Yeah, great weather out. That is why I come to eplaya, to discuss the local weather.
While enjoying the sun today, here are a couple reads that, considering you are here on a site devoted to Burning Man, the BRCCP thinks you might find interesting.

As an interesting side development to eplayas warm embrace of BRCCP, the party noticed that on other social media sights discussing Burning Man issues, that commodification camps seemed to be a big deal of discussion, so controversy over how the Bmorg is handling the sell out. Be it blogs, or the FB page, or the un-official FB page, etc etc etc. Oh, it's a big deal and alot of people are upset and engaged, no matter how much the Burning Man Project spokesperson is bored. This was very interesting to see considering that within the eplaya circle, the topic of commodification camps has turned to what someone had for lunch. Had the BRCCP not ventured forth to see the ongoing struggle, it could have also accepted the false story that there was no controversy outside of a few dis-satisfied trouble makers. Thank you to those whose helped increase the BRCCPs awareness of this issue by opposing the discussion of it here on eplaya. Thank you.
