Right now in Texas there is a fight for a government forced sale of 66,000 acres. They'll force people out. Never forget who government are. Pirates. This is why they used immigrants in the past to settle the land after they stole it from the first Americans. This is what they'll do again, Imo.
I agree with you, we shouldn't have to move. But we have to know our enemy's potential moves to anticipate the obstacles.
Me Too!!! And I am seeing in many of the posts at sites I follow I am seeing that awakening and the growing awareness and anger at the truth they are finally seeing so clearly. If nothing else we can thank the last crazy few years for that.
"This, coupled with demand, will result in high population density."
Anarchy + High population density -- Any statist would surely tell you that's going to be a recipe for disaster, so if and when these micronations succeed, it should give people an awful lot to consider.
True freedom is a state of mind. Most people are trapped in their own self created prisons consisting of false beliefs, indoctrinated fallacies and irrational thoughts supported by an irrational society. No matter where they go, they take their mental prisons with them.
Same here. If I had the money to turn a seamount into a large artificial island, we might have something to talk about. But a city on a glorified oil platform is not my jam.
Quick edit: That is not meant to sound in any way like a slam at seasteading or the eventual cities that will be built in the sea. Bless those pioneers! But in the early going, it just won’t be for me.
"We are rooting for every effort that gets us closer to where we need to be. We are rooting for every effort that even tries. We want them all to succeed. If they win, we win."
That certainly is one kind of freedom. (We don't have enough words for all the different kinds.) Then again, people in internment camps have very little, and that is a hard circumstance in which to make oneself happy. Those who can manage it would, I suppose, be happy almost anywhere.
But that is not something that anyone gets to put to the test (by putting people into camps). That is why the top-level kind of freedom is freedom from external coercion.
Yeah, the mesh thing, as I understand it, isn't really a solution along the lines of what you are talking about. It requires hardware, and it is short range (until lots of people are using it, IIUC). But I am not a tech person, so there is much I do not know.
The dark web may end up being a solution. That's just about knowing where to go, right?
It is hard to say for sure what will happen. I certainly am not going to make any dispositive predictions like that. We just don't know.
But I do know for sure that a lot of people cannot leave and do not want to leave. And we're not going to just wither into fear or lay down and die. We're going to do whatever we can to be free.

I wonder when people will get fed up enough to drop all the illusions they are still clinging to about their "country."
I don't know. I hope very soon. 🫂

Right! We need to succeed. To show them.
True freedom is a state of mind. Most people are trapped in their own self created prisons consisting of false beliefs, indoctrinated fallacies and irrational thoughts supported by an irrational society. No matter where they go, they take their mental prisons with them.
Freeing oneself from mental prisons is a necessary first step!
I fully support your efforts Christopher!
And I am grateful!
As much as I love water, I'm not down with "Water World." Nope.

Unless things get REALLY bad on land.
Whew! I'm not alone for now.
"We are rooting for every effort that gets us closer to where we need to be. We are rooting for every effort that even tries. We want them all to succeed. If they win, we win."
Yes we are. and Yes we will.
Right on, amigo.
Freedom is not found, it is created.
Well said!
Being free is not having more but being happy with less

Agreed. Lots of different freedoms for sure
No but you may have to defend it by force.
Yep. That will forever be the case, in any circumstance. It’s baked into the human cake.
👏👏👏🙂
What about this?

The FCC has specific plans to do so?
Oh interesting. I don't know a whole lot about Doug Casey. What is it about him that you're sick of or do not like?
Thanks, and glad to meet you :-)
Ah, I see.

Well and rightly said.
We must find a way to stand our ground!
