Praxis Nation --- Towards the Eternal City

[cherokeetroy]

Well, now I’m confused. Is it on Vandenberg Space Force Base or in Greenland this lore-soaked super-city drenched in gothic theme and plated with advanced tech, set to be founded?

I think they want both
Atlas, CA located at Vandenberg, is a fairly new proposal created a few months ago
One of Praxis founders sa8d he's wanted Greenland since 2019
He tried to buy it in 2024 but apparently failed 
I think the goal is to keep at it until they get what they want 

Praxis is only one of several Network State projects 
I think they envision a sprawling interconnected network of private cities spanning across every continent 
Quasi-high tech neo-feudalism
Crypto and AI is going to help them achieve it

Very fascinating intel, thank you for bringing this to my attention.  The kids are all 'grown up' and playing at real life Civilisation now.  
I think of 2 things when I read all of these posts 
1. Where are they going to get their food? Their weak point is logistics, like all 'conquerers/homesteaders' . They are focussed on some AI crap , servers, and crypto shit, but what will they eat?
Also a lynchpin for undermining.
2. Similar to point 1, where is the infrastructure to power all these huge power-draining server farms, AI hubs, and whatever smart BS they want to implement? 
Areas like Greenland don't have the power output do they? 

A last thought, these people are positioning themselves as 'city states' essentially, but they have to get permission from the 'outmoded' (they say) nation state host to set up camp there, still.

The elitists had better not forget the bread part, in the Bread and Circus compliance and controlling of apathetic and/or dehumanized sleepwalking populations.

The brief skimming I have been able to do of this Praxis information points my gut to a type of individual who perhaps seems to be an 'esotericist' without the spirit.  Even an 'idealist' without much pragmatism.  I am probably wrong without having read more, but it seems a bit immature and not thought out logically.

Most of the details of their plans are secretive so you can only speculate how the infrastructure will Work
There is a charter city already in development, Prospera, Honduras
Maybe they'll use that as their model 
What caught my attention is their interest in making Greenland a prototype for the society they plan to build on Mars

He also talks about terraforming by tweaking the weather to make the environment more habitable 

I know they're also very obsessed with the idea of privatizing their own science research
Especially medical treatments to reverse aging
They want the ability to experiment with clinical trials free from outside laws and regulation meddling with their progress

Crazy stuff

What I think is missing with this thought/project is the needs and desires of the working people who will be living and working there. What I see is technology and institutions as the top (they say central, same thing) priorities.

--------

"Praxis Announces $525M Financing for New CityPraxis is the world’s first Network State, an internet-native alliance to accelerate technological progress and revitalize Western Civilization. More than 14,000 Praxians live in 84 countries and have founded companies worth over $400B.

A central ambition of the project has been to build a new city, for three central reasons:

1. Unlocking technological and scientific possibilities: By forming a city in an Acceleration Zone with extreme talent density, we reduce regulatory barriers, enabling rapid breakthroughs in AI, crypto, biotech, energy, and advanced manufacturing.
   
2. Creating more heroic and beautiful ways of life: Through culture and institution building.
   
3. To show the world that it is possible to build a great city in the 21st Century."
   

Praxis Announces $525M Financing for New City

Who are these Praxians, specifically? Why don't we find out who they are and judge their intentions?

Still looks like Metropolis 1927 to me and these cities should start with concept of "the mediator between the head and the hands must be the heart" and not potentially have to end that way after the poor rise up in revolution.

My preferred city: I will need my own land to plant my own food if I must live in a city - give me what I want and I will give you what you want - my services/labour.

I have a confession..

When you post those big images with text in them, I don't read them.

Maybe it is because the font and point size are all wonky? Like way oversized.

I can read a 100-word tweet-image just fine.

But the big posts that are nothing but multiple images?

I just skip them.

Well he does do a basic summary of what is in the text below, so if something catches my interest, I will go on to read the actual text from the source and maybe delve into that source a little deeper. So I want the source there.

Bravo mate some great research and very disturbing reading.

Just another group that wants to enslave everybody's ass but this time they have the technological means to achieve it.

Some obvious back history below but South Africa does keep on popping up - Klaus Schwab's father also worked there sourcing heavy water for Hitler.

It's like dystopia sci-fi materializing in real life 
Pretty surreal

Funny thing is, I've been following Praxis on X for about a year but didn't pay much attention to their posts
I didn't make the connection until right now 

It appears as though Elon's mission is to carry out his grandfather's dream?

Coming at this as a 'dirty occultist' I see their motivation:
The West is collapsing under it's own greed and corruption
They want to revitalise the Western spirit, using common cultural archetypes
The warrior, the scholar, the engineer.
What seems to be missing in all this is the priest and the shaman. The farmer and the nature intuitive.

I am all for revitalising and strengthening 'heroic' culture but it can't all be gymnasiums, supplements, and computers.
I am most assuredly (still) Anti-AI and against biohacking. 

God gave us perfect vessels for our time here, and no this is not some Luddite or fundamentalist Christian perspective, this is me saying that Nature always knows best, it has billions more years of 'thought' than we do, and the more you 'try' to do something, the worse it gets. It needs to be a Daoist let flow naturally life, not a Borg hack hack chop life.
