TL;DR, communist group building race-exclusive town in CO Rockies.
200 acres is TINY. Even then, I doubt it will go well. Seriously though, no taxes, no police, no white people; completely achievable on a piece of property that is essentially just a single apartment building.
Race Exclusive eh?
So some races will be excluded from the community based on race?
By definition pure racism
Massive Federal law violation
May their houses burn, may they freeze, may they succumb to high altitude hypoxia.
Fuck them
Eh, the article should be corrected to "want to build".
They might have a decent couple of graphic artists, but they don't have the gumption to not only build, but survive year round at 10,000k in CO. Hopes and dreams don't magically endow someone with the willpower and skill to survive there. Much less from the political perspective that values handouts and collectives over individualism.
This is full of luls. Track down the lot and maybe it'll even foreclose within 3-5 years.
Likely a money grabbing scheme working off the latest Biden 120% loan/grant program for non white farmers. Someone will make some bank, and headlines, then it will be left as a mess in the highcountry for someone else to try to clean up. Popcorn emoji fodder at best.
What are they going to do with all their poo on 200 acres? It's gonna smell bad for miles
Bunch of stupid folks. Bet they have little to no experience in construction at 10,000 ft elevation. Very arduous and expensive.
Darwin should score well with this outfit.
Use composting toilets, will solve that issue.Quote:

Race exclusive? based on the picture in the article. I see 3 people with no pigment / whites. Then again, they could identify as black. Also know as the Dozeal syndrome
"Rich soil". There? Hahahahahaha! (Deep breath). Hahahahahahahaha!
HA! HA! HA! It will be interesting to see how this experiment works out... My guess is that someone wanted to get some quick cash vis GoFundMe... Maybe to buy another house...Quote:

If they actually attempted it it would be a donner party type of ordeal. Yet, some of their pictures look nothing like 10k feet elevation.
There is a non-zero chance that they just took some outdoor pictures and they are soliciting donations without ever having bought a damn thing. [cigar] Media gladly helps out. Who wants to wear some t-shirts and go for a hike with me to get some cash too?
Right? I live at 8300 feet and you can't grow anything here. The "dirt" is basically crushed granite with a sprinkling of ground up pine needles and pine cones.Quote:

I was thinking the same thing. I've been all over this state. Never seen anywhere @10k ft that looks like that.Quote:

They're full of it...
What a crock. I don't think this is real, and likely just some scam to try and get unsuspecting idiots to donate money to their scam.
If they said they needed money to build a wall around the property, they could get racist idiots from both sides to contribute. Their con game is weak.Quote:

Yup. Their first picture is arid with juniper trees, probably 6,000 elevation max imho especially if western CO. Certainly under 7,000 if technically upper Sonoran. Then we jump to the stream picture - can't see everything but I'd guess for sure no higher than mountain zone (def. under 9,500 feet).Quote:

Total scam the more I look at this. Maybe not for financial reasons, no idea of the intent, but the facts are not legit.
this is worse than Armenians/Azerbaijanis banning Azerbaijanis/Armenians into their stores in US.
So is Not The Bee supposed to be the serious version of the Babylon Bee?
Won’t make it past the first winter. The body recovery video should be entertaining.
Like frozen shits.
My brown ass would never fall for some dumb shit like that.
if they (or any dumbass idiots) does Sovereign nation bull shit, they need to apply for a damn visa from US states dept. if they go outside of their made up land of nation, they need to pay a taxes for goods bought in US.
I shit you not. I treat sovereign nation returds as an illegal immigrants PLUS asshole who tries to evade taxes.
Yes. They write about actual things that make you scratch your head or facepalm.Quote:

Again, assuming they have the land and it has even 1 river through it, how long before they've got it polluted and harming everything downstream?
There's so much info in the article that doesn't jive with how things really are (vice how you might want them to be) that I agree with everyone here that this is all probably just a load of BS. But if it is real, I'd give them less than a 5% chance of success (that's being very generous). Idiots.
OMG
[facepalm][fail]
When fed raid this place for tax evasion, they will play "U Can't Touch This" by MC Hammer.

There may be water on the property, but do they have the "rights" to it?
True freedom means the freedom to fail. One way or another, they will provide the rest of us an example.
https://blackhammer.org/hammercity/
From their website:
Hammer City is Black Hammer Organization’s latest project!
Building a city for all people of color to be free (no discrimination of nationality, gender, age, mental/physical differences, etc)
Jobs, housing, food, healthcare
No cops, no rent, no Coronavirus, and no white people
Returning the land to Indigenous people
Building the first Hammer City in Colorado
Since when are blacks indigenous to North America?
Are we to believe they have Native American members of the tribe which once occupied that land?
Maybe I'm just a big nerd, but the first of the mock up pics looks like Mos Eisley Spaceport. You will never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy.
Brilliant and absolutely spot on. [Beer]Quote:
