sustainability

It's an easy math problem: There have to be enough contributors to reach critical mass. Once reached, basics can easily be considered solved for good. That's what no one ever tells you. Almost everything out there is fake, and simple business, not charity. We don't pretend: It doesn't take that much. We'll mark this point as solved, once it is. And focus our efforts on building something bigger, for more people to partake in. Unlike those 'influencers' collecting 'donations', when they're already in the 0.1%. Then they 'donate' a miniscule percentage, on cam, of course, and are celebrated for nothing. Mindblowing hypocrisy. If you make minimum income, and donate just 10 Euros, you contribute more in % than any of those!
Rest assured, our minimalism is legit, and funds are used properly. If you're close, and the situation allows, you can visit, and see for yourself.

Even, if you don't care for the bigger project, please contribute to this. We'll update you, once the initial food/shelter/health matters are guaranteed. Then you can decide, if you want to continue, write history, and prove that a different life is possible. As long as there's any time left besides the other work, we can also always find someone else who needs a real brother. There's plenty to do!

food

But till then, it's this dreary wave between, "Hooray! Today, we'll eat real food!", and, "Dang, again, nothing to eat. Tomorrow, we can get some indescribable factory mush again, just sit tight." Being the madlad I am, I tried all sorts of things. (Tip: Don't touch that powdered hipster stuff, it's a lie on so many levels. Even takeout is probably healthier, and cheaper.) Growing up in this era, my first thought was, of course, "How can I solve this on a technical level?". But the math is clear: We need more income, period. No analysis magic can fit a square peg in a round hole, or replace real food. Nutritionists with much more time, and resources tried to survive on minimum income in 2010 or so, and failed. The life expectancy for this caste is as clear as disturbing. Exploited to the last drop of blood, then discarded. Nobody counts these bodies.

health

A result of previous, never-resolved government abuse, and long-term malnutrition. This is a lot more expensive to fix, but also pretty doable. Contrary to popular belief, European healthcare is anything, but 'free', at least not anywhere we've been. If you need a doc that actually cares the tiniest bit, you pay thousands. It's extremely easy to get zombie-pills, though. Takes less than a minute. Many people get toxic prescriptions, and sell them to junkies. One way to make enough money to live, but we reject that. Most issues can be resolved via nutrition, but that's more expensive than the toxic prescriptions that keep you crippled for life. This is where the healthcare system's funds are flushed to. Then they claim there's not enough for real care. An ingenious wealth transfer from the poor to the rich. Blood money.

shelter

One of those issues that turns your stomach inside out. We're fine with minimalism. A cabin in the woods without electricity. Even a sturdy tent. Office stuff can be done in a tiny apartment in the nearest city. The bigger project solves this gracefully, and for more people. An interim fix just for this cause requires ordinary rentals, which only fattens up 'investors', and 'landlords'.
Stability is a big concern. Depending on the timeline, and speed of contributions, there are different reasonable approaches. Small, individual rentals cost most, and aren't a permanent fix.
One more reason to contribute today, and share with your trusted ones! Normally, I'm all for oldschool slow-pace, but here, speed is key to reaching critical mass, and minimizing total cost. Cost ratios are exponential, both ways.

outlook

This currently applies to others, and myself. I share whenever there is enough income to do so. Even, after our own situation is stabilized, the work doesn't have to end. Real effort. It's simple to find people in need (Even though many are locked up in their urban hellholes, like us.). It's a good task, worthy of doing. Unlike everything else out there, you can know your contributions are used for real, because I invite you to just join us, if possible. It's not a one-off gag thing for 'youtube' scams. I've spent thousands of hours helping strangers, and I don't regret it. Say no to profit motives.

exit the modern world - embrace true life

When you cut out the filth that are greed and ego, you're left with harmony, and joy beyond your wildest dreams. For centuries, various religious groups have demonstrated how wonderful life can be, if you give yourself to others. Truly magical. They all require affiliation with established religion, though. We find this hard to accept in this era of seemingly no help from 'God'. There's nothing wrong with that, in fact, we encourage honest, hard lines.
We think we can be more open in that regard, yet simultaneously more traditionalist. With a strong focus on nature, minimalism, massive conviction, and your support, we're certain we can set an example of what can be done.

tasks, not jobs

Work exclusively for each other, without abuse tok€n$, suits, separation. Not for some ill-defined 'greater good' or whatever status quo is trendy - but real, tangible life, and love.
No, we're not unorganized 'hippies'. We've very much grown up in this mechanical, dehumanizing system, where everything's quantified, institutionalized. Being wholly private, free from bureaucracy, we work on tasks that matter. Each according to his needs, each according to his ability. This does not refer to existing ideologies. We're far beyond that. It's the natural, only logical conclusion. It can be argued for from many sides, though we're beyond arguing, and intellectual escapism in ivory towers.

purpose

We discover our true purpose in quiet meditation, and lively dance. In everyday interactions. Chores? No way! It's a great blessing to care for each other, instead of enriching politicians, and 'CEOs'. Work was never an issue. Intent makes or breaks it. If it benefits your tribe, all tasks are joyful in their own way. Mothers can be mothers. We remove 'jobs', and focus on tasks that need doing. No imaginary, abusive, and openly useless 'service economy'.
No separation between the guy managing bureaucratic matters, and the one who just cleaned the outhouse. Both tasks must be done, both are valuable.

learning how to live

We're the lost generations. Let's be honest: We have no useful skills. Tech only brought us suffering.
Let us explore what once was common to all folk! Everything we truly need, we can create ourselves. For each other. Never beyond need.

We don't need much. In fact, the closer we get, the less we need. Only modern, hyperindividualist fools require distractions to cope with their emptiness. There are enough real tasks to do for a thousand years to come. Real tasks. We have no artificially fabricated needs. Pure work for each other is highly enjoyable and never ending.

helping others

Genuinely. Some of us worked in tech, finance, science, and other 'suit' areas. We know every single bigger public org is fake. We've seen it. We've felt the immeasurable disappointment, when our basic childhood trust was shattered, when we were expected to perpetuate exploitation.
We know the math, and how simple it is to effect change, if you really wanted. Yes, funding is required, but it's far closer than you might think. Even small time 'youtube stars' make enough money off of systematic ad manipulation to end poverty in entire countries without breaking a sweat.
It's not a hard technical problem. The question is whether you're fake, or not.
The power of many contributors combined allows us to break the entry barriers the system enforces. After that, there's no holding back.

truth and valor

We work for genuine love, and couldn't care less about those with nothing better to do than parroting the Zeitgeist.
Study just recent history, and you'll find the same ardent supporters of current trends were on the other side a mere decade ago. Their so called 'morals' and 'facts' come wrapped in plastic. One conscience-to-go, please.
Not with us. Neither ego, nor purse to bribe. Keep your awards, and your hi-def toaster.

Genuine 'opinion', for the lack of a better word, allows for genuine battle. Something not seen in decades, thanks to mechanized 'humans'. We can argue every single point without fear, and did so silently with ourselves for many years. We likely asked more questions than critics could come up with.
This is not a matter of some chicken-wing-of-the-day vs. another. We believe in timeless values. Even, if you happen to be a modern trend-follower, or don't agree with traditionalism, you should still support us for what else we stand for. You won't find anyone more genuine, that's guaranteed. 'Left', or 'right', all the chicken-wings can agree on some things. Support us for the part you like, see it flower.

no ego, no conflicts of interest, straight talk

Information sharing, guides, philosophy. Without the egomania you find elsewhere. No selling out, neither for money, nor internet-ego. Most authors don't even want to be named.
Plain and straight as it should be.

free services

Various community services have been operating in secret for years, and help in daily life. Purely functional, for those forced to use digital tools (aka, most). Again, none of the modern nonsense, all of the pragmatism. Run in the most cost efficient manner possible. With more available funds, this could be improved by consolidating servers, and moving from discounters in western states to regular DCs in less intrusive ones.
Why secret? Keeping most things private, sharing many accounts, and never linking more than necessary, prevents attacks. Everything has security issues, even trillion dollar companies get 'hacked'. We don't pretend to have some special security. Particularly modern 'trolls', 'cancelers' often go great lengths to hurt someone. Plausible deniability by default is a common sense defense.

contributions

If you are knowledgeable about a subject, or simply want to publish thoughts that align with us in general, you're very welcome to send in drafts. We can work on it together. It doesn't have to be 'high-level', it's probably even best to consider our naive non-techie brothers, and sisters first.

backlogged articles

Due to the ongoing survival situation, there's a huge backlog of articles, and editing. It's been understandably less important, than keeping everyone alive.

demand

Depending on how the contribution efforts go, we can go different paths.
What do you want to happen? Digital 'entertainment', or change on the ground?
Even genuine content is ultimately merely a way to pass the time. The sooner we can build a real alternative village, the better.

Producing genuine 'content' is not very helpful in achieving survival, or funding the bigger project. Without the typical 'monetization' strategies, it means we spend innumerable hours on research, and editing, just to get ripped off in a heartbeat by 'ai', and 'SEO' scammers who have no qualms.
Tell us what you'd like to see. We're purpose-driven.

Writing about specific issues, and concerns you have, can be a valuable community task.
Producing random 'content' without 'monetization', not based on readers' needs, is a waste of time better spent working on the bigger project, or simply helping grateful strangers with mundane tasks.

We generally prefer oral tradition, like the ancients. It's infinitely more personal, human. The written word is most often an inopportune abstraction, distanced, lifeless. In digital, ephemeral, unlogged chat comes closest to it.
