Concerns have been raised by protestors on social media, who claim that people are arriving at the Standing Rock demonstration for the "cultural experience" and treating it like Burning Man festival.

Protestor Alicia Smith wrote on Facebook: "On my way back from the camps. Need to get something off my chest that I witnessed and found very disturbing in my brief time there that I believe many others have started to speak up about as well.


"White people are colonizing the camps. I mean that seriously. Plymouth rock seriously. They are coming in, taking food, clothing and occupying space without any desire to participate in camp maintenance and without respect of tribal protocols.

"These people are treating it like it is Burning Man or The Rainbow Gathering and I even witnessed several wandering in and out of camps comparing it to those festivals."

 
I hope they brought a goat.
 
cool, theres white people there. now we are allowed to make fun of it without being racist.
 
I hope they brought a coat.

It is cold in ND! Reminds me of raising kids. I always told them to bring their coats when we off to somewhere. Then one day, I didn't do it. My son, about eight at the time I think, said
Dad, I am cold!
I asked; Well where is your coat?
I didn't bring a coat!
That's why you're cold.
 
The protest is on land owned by "white people", so foreign invaders have no standing to rock the boat.
 
These folks are going to be in for a rude awakening next week when it gets to -20 out there and their parents won't pay for their bus ticket back to Berkeley.
 
I'm absolutely shocked it started to trend this way at Standing Rock when the sjw mob moved on to this after they got tired of being outraged about the election.
 
I can't believe what you guys just wrote.
