Anyone take this guy serious? Seasteading is the future.

@OCCatholicDude The big government worshiping statists don't like it when you don't live under the thumb of their god.

The Seasteading Institute has a bright future ahead! The ideas are promising and feasible, since incrementalism is the basic idea of this project. Taking small and stable steps could lead into something amazing.

The mission: "To further the establishment and growth of permanent, autonomous ocean communities, enabling innovation with new political and social system.

Hey Lispy, why don't you loose a few pounds, get a life and maybe a job at some second class stand up comedy club where you can be "funny" for a night....'cause it ain't happening here.

You can't marry a 9 year old in minarchist or anarcho-capitalist societies, dummass.

Seasteading is not comparable to Mormon (or) Pilgrim Homesteaders. These religious groups base their societies on mutual cooperation, not rugged individualism. Seasteading is simply another foolish attempt by libertarians to prove that the free-market works.

@logtype47,

Jim Jones wasn't all bad. He was a committed civil rights advocate who went insane during the Cuban Missile Crisis and thought that a nuclear war was inevitable. This made him go completely insane.

Seasteading is just like homesteading and done for a wide variety of reasons. Some people like the Mormons homesteaded for specifically religious reasons, others like the Pilgrims homesteaded with religious motivation but not for any particular prophecy, and most just do it for money.
