Default Does Society Suck?

There is an alternative. There is another way, a better way.

Remember that old 'commune' movement back in the '60s? "Let's all live
together in peace and harmony and share what we have to make a better world"

Guess what? 'Communes' grew up!! Now called 'Intentional Communities', you
can find everything from egalitarian (all are equal), income-sharing,
eco-villages to 'spiritual retreats'.


You can still see many successful, fully functioning communes that date
back to the sixties. They are still called communes, and guess what? They
are all grown up.

Some places you 'buy' into and get
your own place, other places don't require any 'investment' other than your
ability and willingness to help out. Awesome places to raise kids (think
ideally no violence, no corruption, no commercialism, healthy fresh organic
food, YOU control your child's curriculum).


Crap. Schooling is haphazard and low standard, most adults are heavily into
drugs, many are vegetarians and suffer the various illnesses associated
with that lifestyle.


Curious? Come learn more!


Not from a clueless fruit loop like you I won't.


Want to talk and learn about Intentional Community? Want to connect with
other Communities and Communitarians?


Nope.


We're a new forum with lots of neat perks. Registration is free and simple.
Come see what we're all about!


Not interested. This is about permaculture, not newage bullshit.


(yes, this is a membership drive - we're brand new) So come visit me,
Geekgirl, and help build community online.


Why? You are obviously quite clueless.
