TESTEMONAIL:  Right and Discordianism allows room for personal interpretation. You have your theories and I have mine. Unlike Christianity, Discordia allows room for ideas and opinions, and mine is well-informed and based on ancient philosophy and theology, so, my neo-Discordian friends, open your minds to my interpretation and I will open my mind to yours. That's fair enough, right? Just claiming to be discordian should mean that your mind is open and willing to learn and share ideas. You guys are fucking bashing me and your laughing at my theologies and my friends know what's up and are laughing at you and honestly this is my last shot at putting a label on my belief structure and your making me lose all hope of ever finding a ideological group I can relate to because you don't even know what the fuck I'm talking about and everything I have said is based on the founding principals of real Discordianism. Expand your mind.

BREAKING NEWS.... THE BIG GREEN GATHERING HAS BEEN SHUT DOWN BY POLICE!

The Big Green Gathering, a fixture in the alternative calendar, was due to return after two years this week. 15–20,000 people were expected to turn up on Wednesday (29th) to the site near Cheddar, Somerset, for Europe's largest green event - a five-day festival promoting sustainability and renewable energy, with everything from allotments to alternative media. Hundreds of staff and volunteers are already on site, and its cancellation comes just days before gates were due to open. Organisers, most of whom work for nothing, are gutted. One told SchNEWS "We are so disappointed not to be having this year's gathering – it means so much to so many people".


Start the party guys the smelly hippies and weido pagans got their collectivist ass whooped Hooray!!!

You know - until you specify what precisely you mean by "this" your answer isn't particularly helpful. Do you mean my OP is BS; or the article I quote is BS; or the underlying bureaucracy behind the cancellation of the Big Green Gathering is BS; or even that you own reply is BS.

A bit of specificity might help us readers out . . .

All of the above. More specifically, the fact that BGG got cancelled. I don't give a crap if they're "smelly hippies" and "weirdo pagans," killing their party is not cool.

right with you on that . . . the thing that twists my gut is that the PTB bureaucratised them into cancelling it themselves - that is just unbelievably sucky
