What does this nonsense have to do with Burning Man?

It has nothing to do with the "celebrate self-sufficiency, leave-no-trace-environmentalist" Burning Man.

It has a lot to do with the "spend thousands of dollars to go to the desert, sit in an airconditioned pavilion and talk about how money just, like, doesn't matter man" Burning Man.

If you see a piece in the NYT that's making fun of those weird tech nerds, odds are high it's in the styles section. Choire Sicha, formerly of Gawker, took over the section last year, and since then there's been a rash of pieces akin to this one. Not exactly hit pieces but it's hard to miss the wry condescension throughout.
