I am seriously considering starting an intentional community in the Pacific Northwest. I'm tired of this society we live in and I think a lot of others are, too. I don't feel that I'm properly represented anymore and I think I can live a better life as part of a community that I helped to build from scratch. I personally have some white nationalist leanings, although I'm not opposed to inviting anyone who would work construction on a daily basis in exchange for living on our land otherwise free of charge. It's obvious that even normies and especially zoomers are being cut out of 'normal' society, unable to buy a house and settle down, and there's a huge demand for an alternative lifestyle. Even if we don't share one ideology (especially a Any Forums-tier ideology), I believe this concept has solid foundations and will appeal to a large subsegment of society.
10x10 buildings are not subject to strict code requirements in many places, so we could start with those. I think we could go old school and salt our meat until we could afford to get electricity up and running consistently for a communal freezer. We could easily transition all of this to more standard living once the infrastructure was in place. Weed is legal in a lot of areas of the PNW now so that could be a cash crop, we could grow artisanal weed and sell it like the Amish sell furniture.
I think we could realistically construct and make livable a 10x10 'tiny home' in about two weeks for under $10,000, which is only viable if we get the "right" kind of people who will put in the work and who have a vested interest in the community. We could use crypto for this, too, such as a DAO.
The landscaping of the general area is very important. It shouldn't look like a trailer park, it should look like a miniaturized, comfortable 'town,' or cottagecore. It must be aesthetic (pic related)
I have a modest amount of seed money to start this venture. What do you guys think?
Test captcha. Is everyone having trouble with captcha or is just me?

>Stopped reading right there. I'm not living with forest niggers. The thing is that requiring a certain amount of work per day as a form of rent is going to weed out the kind of people we don't want around.
Jack Morris
>Bump Pic related looks fine initially, but I think overall we'll want to capture the essence of and in the medium term. Overall, we must be tidy and organized.
Ngl. Something like this minus the tiny homes would be pretty comfy
Josiah Garcia
>Something like this minus the tiny homes would be pretty comfy I view the tiny homes as an intermediary step. I don't have millions to throw at this project, but I could realistically seed the basis or foundation work for a community of 5-10 people if we're starting off with tiny homes and building them ourselves. The most important part will be the land.

>which is only viable if we get the "right" kind of people who will put in the work and who have a vested interest in the community. Implying people who have their shit together enough to know a useful skill and have 10 grand in the bank need to move into a cuckshed in LARPistan.
Isaiah Martinez
We really need to find a way to get like minded people of Any Forums with money together to execute something like this.
Every other day it’s a thought that occurs to me to try to build a breakaway community of sorts that’s self organized like the Amish but coupled with modern living standards.
Ryan Jackson
>Implying people who have their shit together enough to know a useful skill and have 10 grand in the bank need to move into a cuckshed in LARPistan. They wouldn't have to pay it all up front, and there are some of us out here... do you really think this kind of thing can't exist? This is what the Home Depot girl was doing, by the way, if you saw that viral video.
>We really need to find a way to get like minded people of Any Forums with money together to execute something like this. To be honest, I'm thinking about just doing it myself. I don't think it's sustainable to get a collective together initially, I think we'll need to be strategic and effective, maximizing the return on anything we do, which is why I'm proposing starting small.
I knew a group that basically did. Seemed neat but everyone there was hyper autistic and there was a lot of sodomy. They also had no running water which was gay

Based bumpers Pic related: with some minimal design consciousness we could make a mediocre "tiny home" village look quite nice and comfortable. It would not be without tradeoffs.
We wouldn't be limited to tiny homes, either--especially for community buildings, which would be the first large constructions on the property.
>Overall, we must be tidy and organized. With a bunch of Any Forums posters? It'll look like Beirut.
Caleb Jenkins
Personally I think degeneracy would be easy to manage. It will exist, but it'll be "white degeneracy," like the 70's, 80's and 90's. Very different from what we have now.
We would need incentives for attractive females to join the community, as this would incentivize young men who are willing to provide their labor for 'free' to live there.
One idea is that we we could potentially leverage government benefits. Everyone could collect whatever they're entitled to and put it into a community fund as a community policy, like Jews do, in an organized fashion

A breakaway neighborhood of cottages and not tiny homes and I'm in. I'll bring my tools and sheeit. That's right I can swing a hammer. Fuck tiny homes tho.
Christian Rivera
Been thinking about this for a long time. Probably going to try my own version. If we are thinking of it, it's being done somewhere by someone... I don't know man. I do have a feeling that any such community would paint a target on its back fairly quickly. You'd have to be careful what you called it, how you set it up, and how you executed it. Labor laws, zoning regulations, fair housing regulations and a litany of other legal red tape could be used to absolutely bury your shit the moment some asshole in some bureaucracy gets a whiff of some folks not toeing the line. Go for it. Just be careful. There is a LOT that can go wrong.

>A breakaway neighborhood of cottages and not tiny homes and I'm in. I'll bring my tools and sheeit. That's right I can swing a hammer. Fuck tiny homes tho. Ok, what are the key differences between a cottage and a tiny home? Keep in mind that going small scale is what keeps code compliance costs down

Go for it. Just be careful. There is a LOT that can go wrong. Would some random leftist really come down on labor laws for an intentional community? That seems like a politically self-destructive move to me. We'd have a lot of latitude in that sense.

This is the way....private societies.

You can build actual houses for not much if you're willing to help each other out like the Amish do. With no cost of labour and low cost of land, you can have a house fit for a family for like 50k.
What you do is make sure the dwellings are not on permanent foundations. Bit of a bylaw loophole.
Charles Wright
Terribly retarded idea. People who post shit like this on this board are either grifters or just literal psychopaths.
Nicholas Taylor
>You can build actual houses for not much if you're willing to help each other out like the Amish do. With no cost of labour and low cost of land, you can have a house fit for a family for like 50k. What would the construction methods consist of? How long would it take to construct one single-family home? I feel that we'd need to start much smaller (it takes a weekend for a couple of capable guys to set up a $10,000 shed) and scale up--I don't think it's realistic to start with multiple full-size homes unless we find financiers, which might not be sustainable without a cult lol
Or just go to a county where they don't give a shit. America has a lot of those in heavily right wing areas. Especially in the heavily red states like Wyoming.
Dominic Garcia
Can i platy the devil's advocate for a second. None of us defended the ones we're in now, what happens when lefty gang or BLM tards show up, ..you gonna move somewhere else? + state and federal laws FFS
David Nguyen
>do you really think this kind of thing can't exist? I think you're not going to get a functional society going out of unemployed and unemployable lazy NEETs here. Really anybody who has a work ethic and a skill and can put together 10 grand is very probably working for themselves or for a decent job and has a real house on their own land. Good luck though, build a few cuck sheds and see what sort of mongoloids show up from this board.
James Morgan
>People who post shit like this on this board are either grifters or just literal psychopaths. Whatever you fucking loser. Go to another thread, then. I'm talking about something scalable that I start myself. You don't have to participate. Look how much of a defeatist you are, actively seeking out a new space to shit up just to reinforce for yourself the notion that you can't do anything like this. It's all impossible for you. Learned helplessness is pathetic.
Tiny homes are on trailers and have tires, their toilets are connected to a tank and you can shit without smelling up the whole place. Cottages are not on wheels and the toilets are connected to sewer or septic. Cottages are comfy.
Christopher Foster
10 X 10 is going to be for manlets only. You'll need to find a way around that if you want Viking stock.
For instance, your scenario- >Taxes on weed sold Would have to be very careful about that. >Fire codes Placement of several out buildings is usually fine until they are clearly being used as dwellings. Code compliance officers aren't stupid, and if you tug their dick chains with such a cheap trick there are plenty of other ways they can fuck you. Be mindful of this. One upset neighbor that is all pissy about traffic on the street can lead to a chain reaction of nonsense. >Zoning regulations for multi family housing Self explanatory. Can't put mdu's in most residential areas, and also not agricultural areas. This mechanism could be used to destroy everything you build. Be careful in this area. >Property valuation and property taxes Some asshole with a bug up his dick decides to get the city assessor to take special note of all the property improvements. The new outbuildings, the gardens, the play areas or whatever. Your property is now worth 400k more. Yay! Now you have to pay taxes on that assessed value- oops and now you've got a lein on the property... Not trying to blackpill you or discourage you. I want you to succeed. It's just not going to be easy, and it's going to take a lot of thinking.
Joseph King
>Good luck though, build a few cuck sheds and see what sort of mongoloids show up from this board. "Van life" is popular amongst alt-normies right now. Are you aware of that? Even if they're not your ideological ideal, there are real people who are interested in this. It's not just NEETs and cucksheds. Why are you such a defeatist? You're looking for reasons it can't work instead of reasons it can. You have a slave mentality.
>What would the construction methods consist of? Your typical American house >How long would it take to construct one single-family home? Well that depends on how many of you there are, your skills, and how hard you work. It could be weeks to months depending on those factors. Modern houses are actually very simple to build. >I feel that we'd need to start much smaller (it takes a weekend for a couple of capable guys to set up a $10,000 shed) and scale up--I don't think it's realistic to start with multiple full-size homes unless we find financiers, which might not be sustainable without a cult lol Your main issue is attracting people. And living in a shed in the middle of nowhere isn't very attractive to be honest.
