I know it never could or would work, but every so often I wish there was some imaginary huge tract of land that nobody had owned before…and I guess somehow didn’t affect the environment for all the assholes that want to play power games or pretend they could rule the world or just live lawlessly so they could be silo’ed off from society. Of course it would fall apart, innocent people would somehow end up in there. They’d probably end up attacking the rest of the world and I’m sure a myriad of other terrible problems. But man that’d be nice.

    Sorry, you’re born too late. You would have loved 19th century colonialism. As long as you could get over the “uninhabited” part of course.

      Everybody is assuming I want to take part in this. I want an imaginary zone for all the assholes to go to…

      Even more adventurous and lawless and dangerous in earlier centuries.

      As long as you could get over the “uninhabited” part of course.

      They sure did back then, easy as pie.

      And some very influential people want that era back. Incl. trampling on people already living there. [Techbroligarch “Freedom” Cities]
