Fraudster without a doubt. I think there was maybe SOME element of wanting the festival to happen because gives off this "former dork who really wants to be cool" vibe but that's really too innocent a description for what he is. He strikes me as someone with Narcissistic Personality Disorder. People with NPD also want to be the best, most popular, etc. but usually lack the skills to pull that off.

MacFarland half-assed the plans from the beginning. He seemed fixated on the fantasy, with no interest in the messy reality of how to make it happen - AND he shitcanned people who tried to point that out. It's no coincidence he threw money and energy into the promotional video where he partied with Instagram models on the beach - that was probably enough for him, and he didn't care that he was selling lies to all the gullible people who bought tickets and packages.

When things started falling apart, he lied and tried to fake his way out of it and delay the inevitable. When out on bail, he tried to sell fake tickets and luxury travel packages to Coachella, etc. Basically the exact same con he just got into trouble for. There's no way he isn't culpable for the con.
