A commune or a cult would be better than this circus lol

Yeah I have thought about it, here’s a decent list. Mind you there are many more.

If I were younger I’d be looking at Mexico. Elevation and arable land can be found. Aboriginals would have survived if not for guns. And I think it will be a long time before the US ruins them like they do all over the world. I believe you can pretty much survive with 1acre per person in the commune. At least according to Fukuoka Masanobu.

Not really, no. The idea of living in a small community makes me feel nauseous and panicky, and the more remote the commune the more intense the aversion.

But I wouldn’t mind some sort of arrangement between some others who also like the idea of being off-grid but who loathe the idea of being in a small community, where we’d be off in the wilds with a LOT of space between us, but still come together occasionally to help each other out with various things, or be available be radio or whatever.

Similarly, the idea of being part of a nomadic group seems quite appealing to me, especially if more people join along the way and others dip in and out.

The fact the term “affordable housing” exists is the problem, all housing should be affordable, it’s a necessity, not a damn profitmobile.
