Are they protesting the actual burning of the wooden man, like that’s a huge environmental hazard? Have they not heard of forest fires?
At the same time a ton of the people blocked are in trucks and off-road vehicles in a flat-ass desert. Go around the dipshits? Surely your trucks can handle being off road for 10 feet.
Man that reason I made up for why they are protesting sure makes these protesters dumb.
Maybe it’s because you got 80.000 tech bros and other rich assholes driving hundreds of miles in gas guzzling trucks and RVs to have a bourgeoisie orgy and leave a huge mess behind.
The protesters were actually focusing on the people who fly their private jets into burning man. IIRC Burning man has a private airstrip and celebrities will fly in on the jets, which is environmentally terrible and goes against the ethos of the group.
The protesters were blockading the road calling on BM to ban private jets from the event. As well as a few other demands.
They started blocking the way around too. Additionally, why should people risk damaging their own vehicles just because of the selfishness of a few assholes?

You understand that a “?” means it’s a question, right? It wasn’t posed as a fact. 🤦♂️
Use the /s man, use the /s!
Or this, either works:
… /s

Maybe they’re “city” off-road vehicles… for show, not for actual use off-road… /s
It isn’t flat in that area. Lots of small embankments.
