The app for independent voices

This is a pretty good relfection on the development of intentional communities. There are big tensions in the intellectual space of the online right between organization for the sake of development of pro-social communities, and organization for the sake of forming men into units that will, in future, be capable of political action.

All of what you’ve described here addresses the re-construction of organic community for the eudomonic purposes. This is how people are meant to live. When I look at my own religious community; with high birth rates, intact families with good relationships spanning 3 generations, and a deep spiritual life, you can see a lot of what your describing here. Communities like mine are fundamentally in need of a layer of organized intellegent men to give them a leadership class. Where in the broad culture, a lot of the horrendous social problems they have realy reqquire the building of pro-social primary communities to address.
