Steve Outtrim is a sensationalist L I A R about Burning Man, though the rest seems true enough.

People are NOT allowed to have sex openly at Burning Man, much less in front of children. Intentionally or otherwise Outtrim is sensationally misrepresenting an lying about Burning Man to discredit all of the unique non-corporatocracy thinking and alternative solutions there. Sure there are problems, like at any event, festival, celebration, or largely populated occurrence - but he's on a disinfo campaign to smear Burning Man much like the rest of the MSM. People are freer at Burning Man to do or not do whatever they chose to as a participant of the event. There is much I did not do in my 10 years attending yet there is much I tried there and or continue to do in my regular life and am eternally grateful for.

Outtrim offers ONLY SPECULATION that Burning Man and Bohemian Grove have deep rooted connections. I'm quite certain a handful of people have been to both events (as well as Disneyland, a Stones concert, other events, places, cities, etc etc etc) but it really DOES NOT mean that the entire event nor its participants are deeply connected. Slim coincidences DON'T make for good conspiracies.

Outtrim NEVER PROVIDES PROOF, only vague opinion and mere speculation, and he claims San Francisco is the most Satanic place on Earth - ignoring the Pentagon, Washington, Wall Street, Hollywood, the City of London, Vatican, B.I.S., etc etc etc.

Northern California has some baggage with Bohemian Grove and Silicon Valley (among many other things) but there's sooo much more that's great about it too. What's not mentioned is that Burning Man takes place in Nevada near Reno and people from ALL OVER THE WORLD attend, from across the USA, Canada, and much further afield AND there are countless Burning Man-related spin-off regional events around the world. Yet they are not demonized, nor should be (even if/when some individuals may try to be rotten apples).

Further ignored is that 3 county sheriffs, the state, and national agencies all get a cut of the Burning Man intake (a second tax on its citizens) and it's all done with their permission and under their watchful eye. This isn't to say that I approve of "authority" but I am pointing out that Burning Man is a "legitimized" event that the government and their agents allow to occur.

Burning Man is not about a ritual sacrifice. It's an artistic bonfire that celebrates the temporary ephemeral aspects of life like a Buddhist sand mandala, beautiful then gone with the wind.

I can't speak to the interpretations of Outrim or the Google found'er's dancing - but slandering the rest of the Burner community by association is next to criminal in my opinion. That's like blaming ALL Americans for the evils of their Empire.

Lastly, I want EVIDENCE that the CIA helped create Burning Man and/or meddles in its culture. I don't expect Outtrim will find much in the not-secret actual origin story of Burning Man and the suppressed and limited alternative culture. If there's another hidden verifiable narrative I would love to hear about it and eat my critical words about Outtrim - but even that won't negate all the good there is that comes from the Burning Man community. On the other hand, there is plenty of evidence the CIA was instrumental to Timothy Leary, the Grateful Dead, and the distribution of LSD along with the BROAD propagation of the 1960s counter-culture's social engineering.

Outtrim claims to be rich and independent and from Silicon Valley. By that measure alone by his own standards he should NOT be believed.

Note: I wrote this as a comment on YouTube, then it got long. I also know that YouTube will censor without notice - so I posted here for the permanent record.

FYI: The Tin Foil Hat image added the circle-pentagram and goat head shit to this video's thumbnail image. Burning Man would never have that on the main Man, though I'm quite certain there are some Satanists (along with every other religion) at Burning Man.
