They've done it. They have decolonized some land for themselves.

No resistance, more like cheering on. I would happily donate $50 to the cause if they promise to set up cameras to observe.

I hope they chase their dreams.

Where is this? I hunted outside of Moffat, Co a few years ago and there was a real small town up in the hills near there that had turned into a hippie commune supposedly. They had shops and businesses set up downtown. Was a strange place.

To the contrary, my lad, I believe this board has expressed near universal support that these young folks embark to the fertile fields of the high Rockies and bring forth whatever may befall them.

You're confusing mockery and reality checks with resistance.

There is a wealth of knowledge on TexAgs. People who know weather, law, medicine, and highly relevant to this idiocy, Agriculture.

We know this would be a train wreck if actually tried.

Therefore, many of us believe this is simply a scam to raise money through their GoFundMe.

10,000 feet up in Colorado actually sounds pretty nice. As long as I had access to a warm place, food, and no other people around.

The criticism and mockery is warranted.

The article itself is just a horribly produced PR release. It isn't even news. The larger problem is that when this thing fails no one will tell the story of why it failed. They will just stay the course of blaming their problems on another class of people.

To me, these posts sound like a bunch of leftists that have nothing better going in their pathetic lives than to ridicule and mock others. I don't agree with what they are doing, they will fail. we know collectivism doesn't work. Just seems petty that people are rooting for their failure. But I guess if it makes people feel better...

Eliminating mockery and bullying are part of why the society is headed to Hell in a handbasket on a slippery slope.

Society needs to call out stupid ideas that end up hurting the environment and the people involved.

If this were real, and not simply a money raising scam, they would destroy the environment of their "liberated" land, and taxpayers would get stuck cleaning it up. Not to mention all the literal feces that's going to flow downhill, because you know these idiots aren't into sanitation.

Real people will get sick, dead, or broke, and taxpayers will pay to chopper them out to a taxpayer-funded hospital.

If they could do this idiocy in a vacuum, no one would care. But innocents will get hurt and we will foot the bill.

Side note, it's less "rooting" for failure and more "predicting".

My twitter feed is extremely lefty and every mention of these people I have seen there has been mocking too, pointing out how ludicrous this whole thing is on many fronts. If it's a real thing at all rather than a fundraising scam, it will fail and anyone who cares enough to even be aware of them will know why.

They should be mocked.

Like CHAZ learning how to garden... their level if intellect is limited and their awareness of existing and known science is painful to see.

These are your people.

When Democrats espouse "trust the science"... Hammer and CHAZ are who we see saying it. Your Democrat leaders are no more science aware than those people. We are mocking YOU... just as you mock THEM.

For me, someone who has the level of formal Science education as I do... I can't help but shake my head at the ignorance of people like you.

I had 6 sciences in HS (Chem II, Bio II, & Physics my Sr year) and took classes like BioChem 410, MicroBiology, and Meteorology at A&M, just for funs. They counted as "Electives."

Science to them is "their truth". Makes it easier.

I would have preferred they had an island hundreds of miles from civilization.
But having the ability to fish for food would be too simple.
Good luck to them are there bets on when this goes all "Lord of the Flies"?

I tend to agree about the reduction in mockery, but more important is the complete elimination of risk. These guys have no risk. **** goes down and they just go back to life. Everything must be safe and risk free.

Well, if they are going to declare themselves as an independent colony and want nothing to do with Amerikkka, then I say we build a wall around the place, charge export duties of 100% on anything leaving the US to go into their colony, and shoot anybody coming over the wall on sight unless they have previous permission to enter our country. If they want to be independent, fine, live independent.

They haven't claimed to be an independent country that I am aware of. And they have shown no enmity towards America in general. I would hope they would do the same with Texas if we seceded, because we could make a fortune on the 100% reciprocal duties we charged on our crude oil, natural gas, and fuel exports to them.

Well, I for one, think this is a wonderful idea. I think all of BLM and Antifa should have their own autonomous zone far away from civilization. The only caveat; they can't leave and can't ask for help. Problem should sort itself out. It'll look like thunder dome in month.
Let 'em have Central Park in NYC. They can certainly have my share.
