The point is to compromise one’s interactions with society in the sense that you want to change what they are. But in this frame, the idea is that your interactions were previously being compromised by the worry that some day you may need to extract money from society / mazes, and this seeks to prevent that.
Consider the Thiel fellowship. Yes, it helps people get their start, but their orders are to go out into the world and start a normal business and raise money the normal way. It’s better than letting those people go to college, so yay fellowship, but it’s totally not this thing. It was a way to let kids who knew that college was a trap skip college. Or at least, that’s my understanding.
Thiel literally proposed funding me in the full stack way at a meeting—not personally for life, but for a proposed company, which was going to be biotech-related so it was much closer to normal procedure. He got the logic. But when he came back to his social situation he couldn’t follow through. Biotech has to work this way for companies because of hold-up problems and dependencies, you agree on the later rounds in advance with criteria for unlocking them. It’s not the full full stack, but it’s the core idea that you need to be secure from concerns that would bury the real operation if you had to worry about them.
Creating a new entire community in a new location makes perfect sense, and is one good way to consider implementation.
