Don’t you mean who would build the nodes?

BYONode I assumed.

Lol this is a ridiculous take. We love in a "functional society" with almost all "like minded" people. Find me someone who is pro murder. Are you saying we need people with different views on murder and theft? Would that be more or less functional?

I think they mean that eventually, the like-mindedness is tested and a bifurcation always occurs. The two groups have to exist together in some manner that does not recognize the previously held like-mindedness... The people who think like this believe their current system of court rules, so-called Law, and other accumulated anomalies that they call the Justice system is some Holy Grail that can never be replicated and is always growing and changing on it's own, at their behest and profit of course. The even have fanatical overtones to their Religion of "justice". It's insane and irrational and they want you in it! I completely agree with you on the simplicity of agreeing on the basics like the "no pro-murder", but knowledge and opinions are fractal. There will always be someone who has a complicated take on killing the murderer and there will be people that agree. The same for theft. Is theft the same as stealing? That is a whole other debate. What about the stealing food to avoid starvation or the latest hunger pang? Qualia flavors EVERYTHING and obliterates like-mindedness. If we could live with our hearts, then yes. But we live in a material world and we use our brains to do it. Logic and reason divide the mind. The heart suffers for it. You have piqued my curiosity on this Lander, Wyoming thing. Is the Prairie Republic dot net website, the current embodiment of the movement? I was fascinated by the Free State Project. Now I've got some more research to do. Thank you!

Citadel now, come to Wyoming

Morning neighbour! ☀️and…GFY

Sounds like the movie, Visioneers... Don't explode! 😆

Yep. There must always be better governance. The old forms of governance are morally weak, untrustworthy and incapable of true government which is self-government. The territorial allotment form of government has seen it's worser days... The governance systems of tomorrow must be akin to overlay districts with many forms of optionality built-in... Duress, compulsion and enslavement must be abolished for all but the most serious of crimes which harm others...

Poor guy.

Interesting article. I find it a bit strange how the hard core libertarians like Jeffery Tucker and the PorcFest types lean more towards bcash and almost don’t want to talk about increasing their wealth or making money. It’s almost like wealth is power and power goes against the non aggression principle or something. Even Tom Woods seems to know BTC is the best asset but wants to be respectful of BCH. Either way I find myself relating less and less with libertarians and more with conservatives.

I think a lot of people in the Free Talk Live circle were introduced to Bitcoin by Roger Ver, so when he went to the BCH side of things they went too. I haven't listened to FTL in a bit, but lately they talk about Dash or Monero more, I haven't heard them talk about BCH in a bit. What blows my mind even more is that they aren't on Nostr. Sure we won't agree on currencies, fine, but isn't Nostr is more in line with their values than Twitter?

I will bite. Where can a read more about the Lander Wyoming Wonderful Project, please?

It's not an "official project" at least not yet, it's just the best and most free area I. Wyoming and I'm slowly convincing more Bitcoiners and Libertarians to move here

It is an epic effort they are putting forth, but building a free community in a place surrounded by people who want anything but freedom(Vermont,New York...)was a bad call.

Because people are social beinga and need community.

I must disagree. I am an anti-social being and need immunity from the community. Solitude is more valuable than never being able to repel the mind virus of Society. I think that people desire community on their terms, but they do NOT "need" it... This is sociological degree bullcrap conditioning...

Ok, you can do you but most people def need community. There is a famous saying "it takes an entire village to raise a child" and there is a reason for this. There are planty psychological and sociological researches done on this topic as well as analyzing feom Dr Gabor Mate. Numbers speak for themselves.

I like my small town, I just want a bunch of cool bitcoiners around me rather than a strange mix or rednecks and costal libs

Same +100💪
