Me and some friends interested in starting a community of canvas tents out in the Appalachian mountains. The goal is to create a tribe like voluntary structure where each member contributes to the community, while living sustainably and in synchronization with nature. This project would help demonstrate the ease, efficiency and effectiveness of living in state free communities and working with those around you instead of competing them. It would show people another way of living, a minimized yet comfortable way to live in harmony with the world and those around you.
Tents would cost around $100-150 month to sustain development and expenses such as the land. We would ask that each person that joins the community brings what they can to contribute to the cause, whether it's a skill, useful materials or otherwise. The community is not made for us to sit around and relax all day - although when it is time to relax, it will be quite nice in the environment - we will be working and producing what we can to help as many people as possible.
We would grow organic foods, I would be raising chickens for their eggs and selling them locally around the area. I would like to distribute other whole foods and items, including pottery and furniture.
This would be a spiritual community where each person who lives there is on the path to better their own mind, spirit and health. This would be a place for those who seek to learn more about their existence, a safe haven for the awakening and awakened. It will be my goal to teach others the knowledge and wisdom I know and to ultimately share the power I hold - complete peace no matter what may be happening or who may be attempting harm unto you. If you feel true peace, no one can do you any harm. My psychologist (who is open minded and in tune with the spiritual nature of life) told me a story of a girl that was about to be raped, but she felt complete peace so the rapist couldn't get himself to do it. To the perpetrator, the only thing scarier than fear is someone who shows no fear in the abundance of great amounts of it.
This community would give me the environment to write the Tale of Dank in an optimal atmosphere to ensure the book is written as well and as deeply as it possibly could be. Sales of the book would help fund the community and fulfill financial obligations.
Energy would be collected via solar panels that would be shared amongst the members. There would be a central bathroom that is shared to minimize expenses and footprint of the community. Water would be collected from either a nearby stream, a well or rainwater collected from a sheet metal roof into a 250 gallon tank (depending on the land available and cost).
Each tent would come with a small wood burning stove to keep them warm through the winter months to come. The size of the tents range from 133 sqft, 210 sqft and 304 sqft.
Ultimately, the impact this community could have on the world could be revolutionary to those who hear of it. It will show the world working proof of another way of living. A way that doesn't involve war, a way that doesn't subject the 'low' class to committing the deeds of those 'above' them. A way where we are truly free, not bound by a schedule or the will of someone else for monetary pay. A way where you work because you believe in the work you're doing, not because you need it to get by. A way where humans can finally reconnect with nature and one another. A way where we can live self sufficiently and sustainably - our current path is not the least bit sustainable.
I would also have the opportunity to record and produce music in this community. The better the set and setting, the better the music. I would be able to release two to three albums I have planned, one being a collaboration with Aggressively Passive. Hopefully I would then be able to perform around the local area and back towards home around Raleigh. The music would raise awareness for the words I sing and the music festival.
This community would provide the foundation needed to have the ascension festival in a near time frame.
Look, I understand that hoarding bitcoin in the hopes of making it big one day is a very enticing idea, but we have to realize something; bitcoin got to where it is today because it offered an idea. An idea that blasphemed state oppression. An idea that removed our dependence on central authorities and all that comes with them. An idea that brought us closer to a free market. Bitcoin gave people hope for a better world, though the truth is, money will never change the world. People change the world. Only once we release from our obsession with greed can the world actually be changed. If everyone keeps waiting for others to make the change in the world that we could so badly use - it will never happen. Ideas of a better world mean little unless they are practiced and executed into reality.
I've attached a spreadsheet giving a brief overview of the expenses and revenue. It's malleable for change in variables including land and community size. Also, I've found tent stoves for a much lower price but I've left it the same to reflect the higher end scenario.
Thank you for your time.
