Man. One of the more interesting aspects about when I was studying US History, is just how often America goes through these cycles where for a decade or two, it becomes intensely popular that ideological, split-off communes get formed in the hinterlands. It's so ubiquitous and so consistent a pattern. Like, literally, every other decade or two it happens, going all the way back to the beginning of the Republic. Historically, these communes were always driven by zealous, religious, fundamentalist, revival groups. And with the continued secularization of America it's interesting to see the trend continue, but replacing worship of Jesus with the worship of tech and libertarianism.No, it's totally going to work this time! You'll see. You'll all see...
