Up until a week or so ago, I thought that the work of Pierce had all but faded away, and I thought that it was only an inactive website, and book seller..
But now after researching it in depth I see that all of his work is alive, and well.. and they are doing more than anyone else, in real world terms. They have hundreds of acres, and they have already overcome many of the most difficult challenges, namely defending against Lawfare.
They have long ago gone beyond the "wake the masses" idea, and they have also completely rejected the "Vote our way out".. they are working on building real communities, schools, media, and libraries.
There is no reason to start fresh , when a trusted group has already done it for us.
Not to mention their model can also be emulated for other small orgs as you say, as I do believe that several community regions are better than a single one.
What I especially appreciate about NatAll is their emphasis on Quality over Quantity.. they do not allow any trouble makers into their ranks, and their Leaders keep a very low profile, pushing all the attention towards the Alliance.
I will likely become a paying member soon, and pay the monthly dues.. then as I get to know them more, and as the Search expands, I will see if there are opportunities for cross promotion, and financial assistance from us to them.,
They will be great allies. With a great blueprint already this will make building much smoother. I will become a paying member as well maybe not a platinum member but at least silver or gold.
