Honestly? Probably the most laughable thing to me about Fyre Festival is that there’s been so many reports of thievery and stolen wallets, clothes, etc when it’s literally been like 24 hours and these people clearly are well off, some dare I say loaded. They all can shell upwards of $12,000 to the tune and promise of rentable yachts and beach yoga but the minute they’re in mildly inconvenient straights they all turn on eachother and start nabbing up whatever’s unsecured even though they’re RICH and if that doesn’t say something about the ultimate nature of the bourgeoisie then I don’t know what does
I’d like to contrast this with the behavior of what happened in one of our poorer neighborhood when an ice storm killed power in half the city. Those who had electricity and/or a source of heat opened their homes to those who didn’t; food and other resources were shared.
That lasted for three weeks.
