The whole idea of this is the same as national socialism is

2017-09-25 00:14:02 UTC

National Socialism isn't the only form of ethno-nationalism

2017-09-25 00:14:08 UTC

Have you read the 25 points?

2017-09-25 00:14:12 UTC

Yes

2017-09-25 00:14:17 UTC

I studied fascism and Nazism last year

2017-09-25 00:14:19 UTC

Carpentry is a fine trade.

2017-09-25 00:14:21 UTC

part of my thesis

2017-09-25 00:14:24 UTC

mhm

2017-09-25 00:14:32 UTC

military and then a job in the carpentry business

2017-09-25 00:14:37 UTC

Its hard work man. I used to frame houses when I was a kid.

2017-09-25 00:14:52 UTC

Out here in Newfoundland when its 40 below dude

2017-09-25 00:14:53 UTC

i really enjoy working with my hands so i don't think i'll mind too much lol

2017-09-25 00:14:59 UTC

Cant feel your god damn fingers.

2017-09-25 00:15:09 UTC

I would say white supremacy is fine, just watch how you pesent it

2017-09-25 00:15:14 UTC

eh

2017-09-25 00:15:14 UTC

60-90 degrees fahrenheit usually here

2017-09-25 00:15:16 UTC

so it's not bad

2017-09-25 00:15:18 UTC

I'd personally say no to it

2017-09-25 00:15:20 UTC

but up to you

2017-09-25 00:15:28 UTC

Hmm, I'm gonna leave I think.

2017-09-25 00:15:32 UTC

alright

2017-09-25 00:15:36 UTC

good bye

2017-09-25 00:15:39 UTC

bye

2017-09-25 00:16:11 UTC

rip

2017-09-25 00:16:30 UTC

Are you going to a trade school or doing an apprenticeship?

2017-09-25 00:16:59 UTC

probably apprenticeship

2017-09-25 00:18:42 UTC

I highly recommend the trades to anybody, you don't have to spend years and throusands of dollars to learn and it will give you a comfortable paycheck

2017-09-25 00:18:55 UTC

plus room to be creative

2017-09-25 00:18:59 UTC

possibly

2017-09-25 00:19:00 UTC

anyway

2017-09-25 00:19:05 UTC

Im a journeymen auto tech. Been working in trades since I was 18

2017-09-25 00:19:11 UTC

Started as a butcher.

2017-09-25 00:19:11 UTC

nice

2017-09-25 00:19:16 UTC

just study what you are capable of studying

2017-09-25 00:19:18 UTC

and what you enjoy

2017-09-25 00:19:25 UTC

not everyone is cut out for higher education

2017-09-25 00:19:41 UTC

and not everyone is cut out for a life of working with their hands

2017-09-25 00:19:43 UTC

Trades are not for everyone either. I went through so many before I found one I truly enjoyed.

2017-09-25 00:19:49 UTC

everyone has their own talents and skills

2017-09-25 00:19:55 UTC

all important

2017-09-25 00:21:40 UTC

mhm

2017-09-25 00:21:51 UTC

Howdy, went to school for auto, diesel etc. Decided I'd like it more as a hobby and started working on a big potato farm, just kinda rolled with it I guess, been 12 years ago already.

2017-09-25 00:22:00 UTC

i want to go into electronics as well so i could set up a couple of solar panels

2017-09-25 00:22:12 UTC

Solar panels are not to complicated

2017-09-25 00:22:22 UTC

Really its almost plug and play now.

2017-09-25 00:22:43 UTC

Diesel techs have a hard job man. I would not enjoy working on giant trucks.

2017-09-25 00:22:50 UTC

lol

2017-09-25 00:22:57 UTC

yup, stuff is heavy

2017-09-25 00:23:13 UTC

i also want to try my hand at possibly producing energy with a waterwheel in a river

2017-09-25 00:23:23 UTC

sounds like a good idea.

2017-09-25 00:23:41 UTC

Solar panels are fine

2017-09-25 00:23:47 UTC

I wonder how much wattage you could produce with many wheels.

2017-09-25 00:23:50 UTC

My family home is off grid

2017-09-25 00:24:01 UTC

It just costs a lot of money to get all the material

2017-09-25 00:24:03 UTC

equipment

2017-09-25 00:24:12 UTC

i'm a bit worried with solar panels because it might rain a lot in washington/oregon

2017-09-25 00:24:13 UTC

for instance we have three tons of lithium batteries

2017-09-25 00:24:19 UTC

doesn't matter

2017-09-25 00:24:24 UTC

sollar energy goes through rain

2017-09-25 00:24:29 UTC

oh ok

2017-09-25 00:24:39 UTC

but if you can

2017-09-25 00:24:43 UTC

go for a place with a river

2017-09-25 00:24:45 UTC

or a stream

2017-09-25 00:24:47 UTC

yeah definitely

2017-09-25 00:24:50 UTC

and just get some hydro power

2017-09-25 00:24:54 UTC

that would be power all year round

2017-09-25 00:25:00 UTC

unless it freezes over

2017-09-25 00:25:04 UTC

easy to get water + build a primitive dam + water wheel

2017-09-25 00:25:11 UTC

you don't need a dam

2017-09-25 00:25:15 UTC

a dam is bad if you want to fish

2017-09-25 00:25:20 UTC

yeah true

2017-09-25 00:25:39 UTC

Yeah damming rivers is a huge project that takes a lot of study

2017-09-25 00:25:49 UTC

and it's often bad for the land

2017-09-25 00:25:54 UTC

you don't want to fuck up your landbase

2017-09-25 00:25:57 UTC

Yep usually

2017-09-25 00:25:58 UTC

true true

2017-09-25 00:26:06 UTC

Check out a place here called Muskrat Falls in labrador.

2017-09-25 00:26:16 UTC

a big part of the new communities should be about the respect of your land, as well as the respect of your people

2017-09-25 00:26:20 UTC

it's really a shame that urbanization has caused us to lose many essential skills for survival

2017-09-25 00:26:30 UTC

they're not too hard to learn though

2017-09-25 00:26:41 UTC

Its up to you to learn them friend

2017-09-25 00:26:45 UTC

mhm

2017-09-25 00:26:46 UTC

No one is holding you back.

2017-09-25 00:26:47 UTC

it's easy to know which plants to eat

2017-09-25 00:27:09 UTC

I've identified most of the weeds that I can eat in my climate

2017-09-25 00:27:18 UTC

but that's if shit really hits the fan

2017-09-25 00:27:32 UTC

also, make sure you guys choose a place that isn't too rocky

2017-09-25 00:27:40 UTC

the land I have at the family home is rocky as fuck

2017-09-25 00:27:49 UTC

and it's very difficult to plant things in such an environment

2017-09-25 00:27:55 UTC

yeah i prefer flatter areas anyway

2017-09-25 00:27:58 UTC

+ forested

2017-09-25 00:28:00 UTC

I mean

2017-09-25 00:28:03 UTC

rocky in the soil

2017-09-25 00:28:04 UTC

underground

2017-09-25 00:28:05 UTC

I live on an island literally nicknamed "The Rock" place is barren

2017-09-25 00:28:07 UTC

oh yeah

2017-09-25 00:28:13 UTC

@NlBaker fucking rip

2017-09-25 00:28:15 UTC

You need to dig the land before you live on it, if you can

2017-09-25 00:28:19 UTC

just like

2017-09-25 00:28:23 UTC

a foot or two deep

2017-09-25 00:28:25 UTC

a foot is enough tbh

2017-09-25 00:28:41 UTC

We till 18" for our crop

2017-09-25 00:28:43 UTC

rocks beneath the soil = fucking hell to grow anything beyond beans

2017-09-25 00:28:54 UTC

potatoes

2017-09-25 00:28:56 UTC

corn

2017-09-25 00:29:00 UTC

turnip

2017-09-25 00:29:06 UTC

corn has decently long roots

2017-09-25 00:29:07 UTC

cabbage

2017-09-25 00:29:09 UTC

potatoes, sure

2017-09-25 00:29:11 UTC

if i stayed here in indiana i could grow potatoes + corn

2017-09-25 00:29:17 UTC

carrots

2017-09-25 00:29:18 UTC

Growing 50+ million pounds of potato a year here.

2017-09-25 00:29:20 UTC

but i'm p sure you can't grow that type of stuff in washington/oregon

2017-09-25 00:29:26 UTC

You also need to think about the fertility of the ground

2017-09-25 00:29:32 UTC

your states may grow a lot of food

2017-09-25 00:29:36 UTC

but how much fertilizer

2017-09-25 00:29:41 UTC

and pesiticide do they use

2017-09-25 00:29:41 UTC

Turnip is the bee's knees

2017-09-25 00:30:01 UTC

you use pesticide on your own land, you can be pretty sure you'll be drinking it from your river too

2017-09-25 00:30:24 UTC

columbia river basin, tri- cities area, lots of spuds.

2017-09-25 00:30:33 UTC

i fucking love potatoes

2017-09-25 00:30:37 UTC

lmao

2017-09-25 00:30:43 UTC

i could eat them

2017-09-25 00:30:43 UTC

all

2017-09-25 00:30:44 UTC

day

2017-09-25 00:31:19 UTC

radish are my favourite

2017-09-25 00:31:35 UTC

i'm gonna start farming in my backyard next spring

2017-09-25 00:31:46 UTC

Thing that sucks about potato is the constant need for funcicide. Or you end up with another Irish Potato Famine, BLIGHT SUCKS

2017-09-25 00:31:59 UTC

mm

2017-09-25 00:32:17 UTC

The only thing is im out of there is no Marijuana.

2017-09-25 00:32:25 UTC

i dont have a backyard but im going to start growing indoors using the krakty method

2017-09-25 00:32:56 UTC

kratky*

2017-09-25 00:32:59 UTC

i'm p sure that we're anti-drug here

2017-09-25 00:33:06 UTC

so yeah

2017-09-25 00:33:10 UTC

most of us anyway

2017-09-25 00:33:25 UTC

Only thing I smoke is tires

2017-09-25 00:33:42 UTC

Drugs are highly discouraged.

2017-09-25 00:34:14 UTC

Especially habitual use.

2017-09-25 00:34:58 UTC

Thoughts on alcohol?

2017-09-25 00:35:05 UTC

alcohol is a-okay

2017-09-25 00:35:11 UTC

im not for drugs, however i dont see anything wrong with cannabis in the hands of a responsible active person, regular smoking is not responsible

2017-09-25 00:35:12 UTC

hell, we're gonna be brewing the shit i'm p sure

2017-09-25 00:35:27 UTC

Habitual use is a no no for alcohol as well.

2017-09-25 00:35:48 UTC

oh so for like

2017-09-25 00:35:50 UTC

festivals n shit

2017-09-25 00:35:50 UTC

right

2017-09-25 00:36:07 UTC

Agreed, I've seen too many lives destroyed from overuse

2017-09-25 00:36:13 UTC

lmao

2017-09-25 00:36:34 UTC

@Rin what would you call habitual? Once a week, Once a month, everyday.

2017-09-25 00:37:12 UTC

Every day for sure, every week, yes. Not sure past that.

2017-09-25 00:37:15 UTC

on a side note, hemp is a great material to farm, versatile, light, durable, easy to grow. an upstarting community should value this resource, as it can be an early replacement for plastics

2017-09-25 00:37:36 UTC

i don't want the temptation to smoke hemp

2017-09-25 00:37:50 UTC

neither do i wish that upon others

2017-09-25 00:37:58 UTC

hemp grows 0 chemicals :)

2017-09-25 00:38:03 UTC

They cloud your brain, and prevent you from reaching potential.

2017-09-25 00:38:24 UTC

Alcohol is especially bad about this.

2017-09-25 00:38:44 UTC

so we could use alcohol as a form of export

2017-09-25 00:38:51 UTC

@Rin I'm gonna have to disagree on the weekly part. After 5 days of work a man should be able to unwind.

2017-09-25 00:39:08 UTC

have you guys seen the movie "Captain Fantastic" ?

2017-09-25 00:39:12 UTC

nope

2017-09-25 00:39:15 UTC

you should

2017-09-25 00:39:18 UTC

it's about this kind of society

2017-09-25 00:39:47 UTC

@ram3n we would have to have a distilery permit to make and sell alcohol.

2017-09-25 00:39:53 UTC

oh shit

2017-09-25 00:39:57 UTC

ok so no selling it

2017-09-25 00:40:01 UTC

outside the community

2017-09-25 00:40:02 UTC

hehe

2017-09-25 00:40:04 UTC

I'm not gonna say we for sure we wouldn't allow it @dmac100 , only that it's highly discouraged. If you want to get fucked up once a week in your own home, I personally don't give a shit.

2017-09-25 00:40:23 UTC

as long as they don't start drunk shit right

2017-09-25 00:40:31 UTC

2017-09-25 00:40:35 UTC

Men fight when drunk

2017-09-25 00:40:44 UTC

Trust me it will happen

2017-09-25 00:40:46 UTC

this is hemp, it does not grow any chemical compounds

2017-09-25 00:40:56 UTC

strictly used for animal feed or industrial purposes

2017-09-25 00:40:58 UTC

If it affects your life in any meaningful negative way, we have a problem. How's that?

2017-09-25 00:41:17 UTC

yep

2017-09-25 00:41:20 UTC

agreed

2017-09-25 00:41:40 UTC

ok

2017-09-25 00:42:40 UTC

Alcohol could be a great export imo

2017-09-25 00:42:48 UTC

nationalize all industry

2017-09-25 00:42:52 UTC

Much legal trouble.

2017-09-25 00:43:06 UTC

hm

2017-09-25 00:43:14 UTC

Special licenses required, tarrifs, government inspections...

2017-09-25 00:43:16 UTC

No thanks.

2017-09-25 00:43:31 UTC

well i think we should be self-sustaining and should require no extra help or money

2017-09-25 00:43:35 UTC

that leads to greed

2017-09-25 00:43:37 UTC

@Rin some states allow making wine or beer for personal use.

2017-09-25 00:43:38 UTC

and monopolies

2017-09-25 00:43:40 UTC

and capitalism

2017-09-25 00:43:50 UTC

@dmac100 That's not export.

2017-09-25 00:44:15 UTC

International trade is how a country grows.

2017-09-25 00:44:28 UTC

So self sustainment would be hard

2017-09-25 00:44:30 UTC

>literally a small rustic town in the forest

2017-09-25 00:44:31 UTC

ew

2017-09-25 00:44:33 UTC

Even the Amish export

2017-09-25 00:44:37 UTC

autarky is the best

2017-09-25 00:44:55 UTC

And the Amish build structures *for others as well

2017-09-25 00:44:55 UTC

You have to export. Unless you own a country thats massive.

2017-09-25 00:45:07 UTC

Exporting is fine, just nothing that requires the (((government))) to inspect anything physically.

2017-09-25 00:45:21 UTC

Whose government ours or theirs?

2017-09-25 00:45:27 UTC

theirs

2017-09-25 00:45:44 UTC

The US government obviously.

2017-09-25 00:45:46 UTC

but yeah i've changed my mind and decided that i would prefer to remain isolationist

2017-09-25 00:45:47 UTC

@Saxon it depends on the sect. The ones who live near me act like jews, not hard working simple folk.

2017-09-25 00:45:50 UTC

if we start exporting

2017-09-25 00:45:56 UTC

we get on peoples' radar

2017-09-25 00:46:04 UTC

on peoples' radar = government inc

2017-09-25 00:46:07 UTC

how much exportation are we talking here? we could industrialize on a small scale, beekeeping, traditional foods, etc

2017-09-25 00:46:24 UTC

What? Foods? Dude you gotta sell minerals

2017-09-25 00:46:27 UTC

Mining

2017-09-25 00:46:31 UTC

>mining

2017-09-25 00:46:34 UTC

>ruining environment

2017-09-25 00:46:35 UTC

nice

2017-09-25 00:46:48 UTC

We are building a "colony" within the contiguous US, therefore we are still subject to US law. We won't be able to "export" booze without jumping through the same hoops everyone does.

2017-09-25 00:47:06 UTC

Which is a non-starter.

2017-09-25 00:47:11 UTC

Is it legal?

2017-09-25 00:47:15 UTC

*i hiss at modern society*

2017-09-25 00:47:23 UTC

Is what legal?

2017-09-25 00:47:33 UTC

Making alcohol?

2017-09-25 00:47:40 UTC

Forming a country inside the united states.

2017-09-25 00:47:51 UTC

it won't be a country

2017-09-25 00:47:54 UTC

How are we gonna pay taxes and buy tools if we don't sell our goods. We don't need to be flashy, but we do need a source of income for expansion. If we're near a large city farmers markets can make us tons of money.

2017-09-25 00:47:56 UTC

I said colony, not country.

2017-09-25 00:47:58 UTC

just a town built by people together

2017-09-25 00:48:12 UTC

Ahhh

2017-09-25 00:48:13 UTC

So, kinda like the hutterites?

2017-09-25 00:48:28 UTC

ยฏ\_(ใƒ„)_/ยฏ

2017-09-25 00:49:24 UTC

@spudman I see us more like the mennonites. They still use some modern tecnology and are more lax on religion.

2017-09-25 00:49:48 UTC

We aren't isolationist economically, many of us will likely have jobs in the general population. And there will of course be things that we must buy outside as well.

2017-09-25 00:50:09 UTC

i think if industry is on the table we should produce products from the land with the help of some machines / methods of procesing

2017-09-25 00:50:51 UTC

maybe

2017-09-25 00:54:55 UTC

We'll want all skillsets, blue and white collar. Especially those in finance. Agriculture doesn't make money anymore unless it's huge in scale.

2017-09-25 00:55:10 UTC

It's great for self sustenance though.

Trade skills are especially useful.

@Rin People at the farmers market in my city sell organic hierloom tomatoes for $4.00 a pound. Agriculture prices depend on where you are in the nation.

2017-09-25 00:57:14 UTC

Yes, people do buy them.

2017-09-25 00:58:35 UTC

organic foods are very good profit, especially if you become a well known regional brand

Hell, 50,000 pounds?

Thats 200k a season, IF you sell everyone and lose none to disease.

That's enough for maybe 3 families per year if they are stretching it.

It would depend on the amount and quality of land I have. The real money is in growing things people have never heard of, like this https://www.starkbros.com/products/berry-plants/kiwi-berry-vines/anna-hardy-kiwi
