Tumblrcon 2.0 rich yuppies edition

Just needs a ballpit:

What happened?

A has-been nigger rapper organized an event with a weekend pass going for 12k-20k$!

In the end they got refugee shelters and much more.

Basically they hyped up this concert of a "private island" in the Bahamas about a year ago using instagram models and cool videos and websites.

Now that it is beginning tomorrow, it turns out it was too good to be true and it is actually located next to a Sandals Resort on a giant public island.

People booked rooms looking like beach villas that turned out to be tents.

The “private flights” have turned into chartered 737 flights complete with shitty economy seats and a bag of chips for each person.

I thought this was an Antifa festival for like the first 2/3 of this post..

No one would hold that against you, considering the income and melanin levels in that plane pic.

There were definitely a lot of well-off white people on that plane.

Tickets cost thousands, what else did you expect?

Kanye and Beyonce in a bouncy castle.

Well... Financially, anyways.

Ironically /leftypol/ is having a field day with the fact that all these rich liberals got sent to a gulag that they paid for.

spending $5k to stay in a literally abandoned disaster relief camp

complimentary bag of lays and a cheese sandwich

Oh I am laffing

Couldn't even afford a fucking slice of ham.

HAM IS HARAM!!! MAYOCIDE NOW!!!

You mean $12k

Wypipo smh

You can't just drop this juicy shit without telling us what the festival is!

What a fucking disaster, please post more drama about it

Since OP's probably busy jacking it to mlp porn....Here's the subreddit for it /r/fyrefestival.

And a thread about the planes, https://www.reddit.com/r/fyrefestival/comments/6804ro/fuck_it_they_grounded_the_planes_time_to_lawyer_up/

And finally snally, LITERALLY where is Ja rule? We literally ed Ja rule's comments on this. In a legal sense.

Here's the subreddit for it /r/fyrefestival.

I made a contribution. :^)

Most of the posters are /pol/lutants, though.

And finally snally, LITERALLY where is Ja rule? We literally need Ja rule's comments on this. In a legal sense.

Next time we hear from Ja Rule, it'll be through his lawyer.

Check my updates. This situation is still developing.

Might need to sticky the OP.

Yeah, both of those sound legit and it sounds like the US embassy is shipping them back to Miami. What a fiasco. It's getting harder and harder to tell what's real and what isn't, though. The FyreFraud twitter account is probably a more reliable source of info.

Yeah, it seems like this whole thing was a shit show from the beginning put together by people with no experience in the logistics of doing something like this. Cell phone videos from people arriving on the island make it seem like the festival was at least a week or two away from being ready to go.

sounds like the US embassy is shipping them back to Miami

Doubtful. The festival organizers probably paid for the plane. I've never known an embassy to give a shit unless there's torture or death involved. You never know though. The power of rich kids and all that.

Damn snally you seem a little jelly of the young kids trying to have a good time.

Naw, she's just a fan of critical thinking

No, I just love fiascos, and the promo vid hit all of the old 'get rich quick' buttons on top of all of the Instagram 'this isn't real' buttons so I can't feel as bad for the people who got scammed. If the festival had actually been something cool to begin with them I would have been super jelly.

man that festival had a fun theoretical line up

How easy is it to find mollys tho?

Right here! I have the best molly you can find in the Bahamas, here lets go to an atm together and get that cash out!

Bunch of rich white kids on the beach. What do you think?

Fucking hard beforehand, molly has been MIA in my city this year. Even before that, I've read that basically no street molly is pure at this point (low chance of even getting cut molly). The only molly I'd do at this point is off the darknet.

This should be a reality show. We have 16 contestants trying to survive Fyrefest!

I'm hoping it end up like Battle Royal

The US embassy's scooping them up and sending them back to Miami, so probably won't happen. :'( Sounds like there may have been some brawls, though.

Someone in the festival's subreddit made a post retelling The Lord of the Flies. I laughed.

Oh my sweet fucking kek I cant breathe.

HE CANT KEEP GETTING AWAY WITH IT

Ja Rule said it was a social experiment to teach mayos a lesson:

This is too funny

dropping $12k on a single weekend not being the type of person who expects to have your every whim catered to

lol okay

Hey there, how did your festival go?

Total shit show but I still had fun and didn't pay a dime for it

Blink-182 pulls out of Fyre Festival, does not want to be associated with that abortion

All those people bitching about staying in a tent- unless they purchased The Villa package when they booked, the site says 'tented accommodations'. MFW

Hold up hold up hold up...people paid 12k for a festival that Blink 182 was headlining?!

BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHA!!!

oh no, they paid that for a festival that Tyga is headlining

so basically everyone going was more retarded than the lowest common denominator of /r/drama? lel

too autistic to have ever slept in a tent

Why is /pol/ targeting a festival subreddit?

Probably for two reasons:

  1. Wealthy kids their age spending lots of money

  2. "Degenerates" (people who actually have fun)

This is prly them getting back at the normies who have what they don't.

Oh makes sense

Festivals can be fun tho. I really wish I got to go to more

Same, I've never even been to any of the big ones.

Unfortunately for /pol/, tomorrow these rich assholes will go back to living high on the gof and the /pol/ people will still be depressed and bitter.

Because it's hilarious and they have nothing better to do.

They are using left over fema death camp tents. Calling it Ja Rule's concentration camp.

This article from Fader is great because they uncritically use reddit posts and tweets as sources.

Man what a garbage fire of a sub /r/fyrefestival is. Almost worse than this shit show festival is.

You mean dashcon 2.0 you inbred hillbilly. But I forgive you fam. I'm actually cackling out loud reading this story.

10/10.

Link the sub with the comments. No NP links or you'll be banned.

At least no pissy ball pit this time

Probably looking for a really good lawyer.

Is Wyclef's guy available?

I dunno, maybe that's where Ja rule got a good deal on the emergency shelter tents. From Haiti.

2k for a music festival. I applaud this company.

Its a victimless crime robbing from these pricks. Perfy

"We're going to build a gulag and make the bourgeoisie pay for it"

It gets funnier with every picture.

Paying 10k for a sausage fest

i keep seeing this but in the airplane picture i'm seeing, i can count 15 chicks right off the bat. it's more like a 60/40 split. Plus that's one picture

Paying 10k for a mayonnaise sausage fest

lol this shit is the real deal

Been reading about this the past hour. This shit is literally breaking right now as we speak

Why haven't the mods stickied this?

Because it's not the mods fetish for stale-ass r/anarchism drama.

DAE read that as r/arkansas?

Uoy yam be dlsxyeic

Because it's not the mods fetish for stale ass

Wtf I love Ja now

Wow, this is gonna descend into some lord of the flies shit

Their site says VIP weekend passes are 2500 not 12-20k. Where are you getting that number OP?

Check snallys post in the comments, she's got news articles. That's the weekend pass price though for 2500, not the whole festival, the all inclusive pass was supposed to including flights, housing(resort not rent), food, boat rides with models, etc. for 12-20k.

I've seen the logo for Fyre before. I wonder what that company does and how their sponsorship will affect their business.

[googles "fyre"]

...oh my.

Holy shit, that sandwich is hilarious. Imagine paying enough money for a good car to go to a festival and receiving 1 dollar sandwiches.

Used emergency tents. That have sat unused for months getting weathered and soaked.

Lol the sub is just full of trolls now

Holy shit this is amazing.

Legitimately some of the best drama in a while. And /pol/ raiding the /r/fyrefestival sub is fucking hilarious.

The sub is fucked and /pol/ is having a field day

no need to dig
for I've found gold
in red pill form
i lost money but I found /pol/

why

Dr Seuss was a well-known nazi

HOW

CAN

JUST

Its too bad its not on a real private Island, because I'd love to see a bunch of Sanders types turn full Lord of the Flies.

Clearly, the marketing video was where all the money went. But at least it was a pretty sweet vid.

Who wouldn't want to spend $12k to be in the Hunger Games?

Oh this is glorious. This week has been a non-stop Christmas, I swear. The red pill dude, Berkeley idiocy, now this? Thank you Jesus, white people have never been dumber.

Oh cool. FTC violations as well. This shitshow keeps getting better.

I'm not some rich instagrammer whore who can just ask her parents for 8000 dollars to waste on a festival or get "sponsored". I actually had to work for my money and emptied most of my savings for this bullshit.

/u/Dontrunfromthepopo - have you ever considered not being a complete retard? What is even the point of having savings if you're going to blow them on ephemeral trendwhore bullshit?

God damn, this is hilarious. Hopefully the organizers get sued for more drama.

Would have been nice if the promised celebrities said before this happened we won't be there

What the fuck does Tumblr have to do with any of this?

You're not, agendaposting, are you?

When rich kids call something 'hell on earth' and 'traumatic' I can already assume it's nicer than my apartment.

I just want to know where the got the footage for this ad.

Sure dude, you didn't paid anything ;)
