Why is everyone so giddy about the flooding thay happened at burning man?

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.

Fuck these rich twats

Apparently middle class Americans are now "rich twats"?

It's mostly rich twats with a few upper middle class twats.

Something 'middle class' Americans may want to notice:

When people are living in abject poverty, you are comparatively 'rich'.

Anger at the 'rich' is at an all time high.

The 'true rich' are out of reach of the poor.

As income inequality grows, this will get worse.
