The only principle I’ve heard of being practiced at Burning Man is “do whatever you can get away with.”
That was my first thought: “They have principles?”
I thought “principals” were a social construct, and should be thus avoided by their type.
I had to laugh the other day-a Freeper (who had been there before) was describing “Burning Man” to those of us who hadn’t, and said something like: “Think of the scene in the movie “The Ten Commandments” where Moses comes down out of the mountain to find them half naked and dancing around with golden calves...that is “Burning Man”.”
