I also found the way they idolized Coachella hilarious and insanely hypocritical. All Coachella did was prove that these exact same artists and fans don’t behave like animals in the right environment. Coachella has also proven that these same people are completely fine with their corporate overlords overcharging them for basic services as long as they have access to organized campgrounds, showers, bathrooms and clean water.


All that being said, from a memory lane, news footage kind of view, it was totally on point and very enjoyable. It was a decent summary of the weekend with some commentary attempting to contextualize the events (albeit often missing the mark).
Dude....you just had to lob that softball out there...didnt you?

You just described 'Homeless Cosplay.'

If you thought this season would have a happy ending, you haven't been paying attention.
