This is a wild read from start to finish but this description of one of the inhabitants made me literally laugh out loud:

There’s Richard Angell, an anti-circumcision activist known as “Dick Angel.”

I mean, that’s just objectively funny.

So some of the best quotes so far from this;

One of the original masterminds of the plan, a certain Larry Pendarvis, had written of his intention to create a space honoring the freedom to “traffic organs, the right to hold duels, and the God-given, underappreciated right to organize so-called bum fights.” He had also bemoaned the persecution of the “victimless crime” that is “consensual cannibalism.”

There’s Adam Franz, a self-described anti-capitalist (Interjection; by this he means ‘doesn’t want to pay taxes) who set up a tent city to serve as “a planned community of survivalists,” even though no one who joined it had any real bushcraft skills.

They slashed the town’s already tiny yearly budget of $1 million by 30 percent, obliged the town to fight legal test case after test case, and staged absurd, standoffish encounters with the sheriff to rack up YouTube hits. Grafton was a poor town to begin with, but with tax revenue dropping even as its population expanded, things got steadily worse. Potholes multiplied, domestic disputes proliferated, violent crime spiked, and town workers started going without heat.

And these are all from BEFORE the actual bears showed up.

“Free Towners were finding that the situations that had been so easy to problem-solve in the abstract medium of message boards were difficult to resolve in person.”

OH YOU DON’T SAY
