No new single family homes in California??

Let's hope they all stay there instead of moving and then trying to make thier new community the shithole that California is.

Also, I’m pretty sure Bill Gates has been buying land in and around Buckeye, AZ, for his own future utopia.

What no one seems to ever take into account with all these grand ideas is evil within man. Everything is supposed to be perfect with everybody getting along, no jealousy, no crime, nothing bad ever…unless they just plan to eliminate any “undesirables.”

This “city” sounds frightening. Do you have to interview in order to be given a spot on the list? Do you have to give a sample of your blood and attend a welcome “ritual”?

Sure sounds like it. If you don’t belong, you are sent out to the wasteland.

I can imagine paying 250K for a Condo and then find out my neighbors are section 8 and everything that goes along with that.
Your home is now worth nothing.

Where do you find a condo in Ca that you can buy for 250K that isn't already in the ghetto? Had a friend that got a job paying 4 times what his job doing the same thing on the east coast paid. His commute was 165 miles one way to a place he could afford. He didn't last a year before coming back.

Haha, that's a good one. Did you watch the interviews with Californians on why they voted to keep their Governor?? Because he cares about the homeless, he is doing an awesome job with the state's covid response, the state economy is awesome, etc..... They are living in an alternate reality....

Pretty much why I don't worry a lot about trying to fix CA. It's useful function as an idiot magnet is probably it's greatest attribute. I feel sorry for those stuck behind the lines and I know there are good people with family or work ties that can't be left behind but it's like trying to bring literacy, enlightenment and responsibility to the trailer park. There is only some much that can be accomplished, they are in CA on purpose and these are the things that are most important to them.

I only wish there was a way to funnel EVERY illegal alien, every homeless person, everyone who advocates socialism to communism and every person with a substance abuse problem to CA. It's a damn shame such a beautiful state got sacrificed to the crazy crew but it became a hippie mecca during the 60s and tolerated the radicals.

Entry to the commune would be less old school occult ritual and more 21st century hive mind drone acceptance- in other words, Future Citizen will be vetted well in advance based upon social credit score. That in turn is basically tied to FC’s entire social media profile, which for the newest generation is assigned at birth. That is to say, parents today are placing sensitive details of baby’s life on SM early on, and social credit of parents will establish a baseline for Future Citizen. Future Citizen’s personal choices and peer reviews from kindergarten onward will add/detract from the budding social credit score. By the time Future Citizen is on ‘their’ own, ‘they’ will be a known quantity. Gigs of snowflake experiences will do the vetting for them- their employer/education/SM posts will be in line with community standards, or they will not be suitable denizens of said commune.

Gonna be smooth sailing until they get their version of a BTK who will have a perfect score, low carbon footprint, regularly tithes 20% to BLM and the like but is secretly kidnapping, torturing and murdering victims of opportunity. Even the Soviets had Citizen X and the fact that everyone agreed that "serial killers" were uniquely a western problem it went on for a long, long time.

I'd almost say they deserved it, but the victims who are born into such servitude rarely deserve any additional misery...but they usually get it anyway.

So does that mean getting code and zoning approval for my home based FFL / SOT might be problematic?

I wouldn't jump through any of those hoops to live near Bill Gates. Indoctrinated, radical progressives are as undesirable as neighbors as the Section 8 crew. And to be honest, because equality matters, Bill Gates city should be required to set aside 20% for section 8 housing. They should also be forced to pledge to accept 10,000 of our new Afghan residents and since progressives always see the best in people, those Afghans need not be specially vetted. And a homeless shelter, certainly Bill is going to build a dormitory facility to house 10,000 homeless people who are having problems getting placement due to criminal background or substance abuse challenges. In fact it should be across the street from Bill's primary residence so every morning he can look out the window and view his dramatic humanitarian accomplishment.

They can earn their place by each day being rewarded for not using drugs or committing crimes. That simple contribution can pay for their food and housing and should they back slide and rape somebody or go on a 2 week heroin binge where they run the streets naked shouting incoherent things, they should never be arrested, just a few days of community service and they have proven to be part of the community and welcomed back into the fold.

Because that is how a progressive would do things.
