I watched the video that was on HBO a few years back. I think you can watch it on Youtube now. I believe it is a 90 min special.
I am no liberal by any means and probably fit the medium more than being liberal or conservative. But I just think the type of people who are at that event and the basic message they bring would tip me over the scales.
A few of the people who run and organize the event made me want to turn it off.
Better not

It looks like it's straight out of Mad Max.

I was under the impression that most Burning Man attendees were corporate boomers getting away to trip balls every year than actual hippies.

It's funny that some of you idiots look at a couple of pictures and think y'all know everything that's going on. There's more money in just a few pockets over there than most of the OT will have in our lifetimes, combined.
This is an event that all kinds of techies, entrepreneurs, models, etc etc go to.
And while there is drug use going on, it's no worse than what goes on at, for example, music festivals and events like that.
It's easy to look at pics and come to a conclusion without any knowledge of what really goes on. It's also easy to see how full of shite some people are claiming the B S they spew as fact.
People spend big money just on their custom vehicles/RVs and costumes alone, not to mention all the other things.

Have you ever seen a man eat his own head?

As a teenager, I always planned on going at least once
As an adult? It sounds like a week in The Dust Bowl, with a side of blotter-induced existential crisis.
No thanks

The CIA is probably secretly suspensive some of the mind control LSD. The "new " kind that makes you never feel the same.

So, where do they hold the counter-culture anti-burning-man back-to-the-roots frick-the-man party these days?

Not sure if serious, but there's some interesting bits of truth to your post. Declassified documents related to MK-Ultra illustrate that the CIA was most definitely running acid in the 60's.
Then it was illegalized, but of course people kept making it. The problem was, LSD is apparently an incredibly hard thing to synthesize and requires chemical precursers that no clandestine chemist would or should be able to get their hands on.
Meaning the shite kids have been eating since the 70's is the "shortcut", post-prohibition stuff, which those in the know say is much more prone to causing mental illness than the original, professionally manufactured stuff.
Tldr: I read Acid Dreams once

My artistic side is triggered by this and would enjoy it. My social side detests it and wants to see it all burn.
Am I to understand that they do not burn the man or props anymore? Is that due to a rogue idiot who got burnt? I remember back years ago, there was a year when the burning got out of control and they had to start supervise it
Which goes against everything they stand for.
