“Rural Renaissance”: Venture Fund Plans New Community In Appalachia To Escape Soros-Enabled-Hellhole Cities

Via ZeroHedge

A majority of Americans are fed up with imploding progressive metro areas transforming into violent crime hellholes because Soros-backed District Attorneys refuse to enforce common sense law and order. Americans are tired of radicals in the Biden administration who knowingly push for open southern borders. At the same time, tax-payer-funded non-governmental organizations facilitate the greatest invasion this nation has ever seen of unvetted individuals – some of whom are on the FBI’s Terror Watch List. The president’s collapsing polling data is a symptom the American people have rejected this mumbling, silent generation president who should be in a nursing home or on a La-Z-Boy recliner at his beach house in the elite-only beach town of Bethany.

In recent years, the tyrannical overreach of government during Covid, BLM riots, and nationwide violent crime eruption, plus the 30-year fixed mortgage rate under 3%, unleashed the greatest-ever exodus of Americans from Demcorat-controlled states and metro areas for safer areas in red states.

The migration trends of the Covid period are still happening today, just less because of housing affordability woes.

However, an entirely new trend is emerging: a venture fund in rural Kentucky is building a new community for folks who want to escape all the chaos of progressive cities.

Called the “Highland Rim Project” (HRP), venture fund New Founding is developing “rural towns and communities nestled in the bucolic hills of the Eastern Highland Rim area of Tennessee and Kentucky.”

HRP’s website stated, “Our nation is in the midst of a generational people movement to small towns and rural areas.”

“Remote work enables a revolution in where people live and how they organize themselves into communities. People are, especially since Covid, proactively seeking communities that align with their values and way of life. The knowledge economy worker can now work and live in a small town, uplifting areas that have struggled with economic depression for decades,” it pointed out.

The firm said HRP is a partnership with “business owners, pastors, and other community leaders.”

Joshua Abbotoy, Managing Director of the New Founding organization, said the community’s leadership would be predominantly Protestant Christians.

“The whole point of it is to plant a flag and say this small town is where our people are gathering. And the question is: who is going to grab the land? Is it going to be good, based people who want to build something inspiring that’s culturally authentic to the region’s history? Or is it going to be Bill Gates and BlackRock and hippies from California?” Abbotoy said in a video.

Leftist corporate media outlets called Abbotoy’s HRP a place for the ‘far-right community’.

Abbotoy said on social media platform X that HRP has “struck a nerve” with corporate media.

He said the number of people signing up to be on a waiting list for HRP is “overwhelming.”

How can progressive media be mad at HRP for wanting to build a “Rural Renaissance” for families when far-left Democrats build trash-covered ‘autonomous zones.’

To sum up, Americans who are sick of progressives destroying cities and the nation should keep voting with their feet.

Well, I strongly support voting with your feet and wallet. I wonder if a “venture fund” is actually any improvement. Or is it just another elite trying to profit from the current fad?
I guess time will tell.
Personally, I would prefer to make my own move to a rural area that seems likely to remain rural, not a newly minted “suburbia”. Oh wait, I already did and love it.

Venture Funds are ‘for profit’ and have a small number of managing partners expecting to get inordinately rich over a 10 year period.

I guess it depends how they make their money. If they just bought land cheap and allow development to occur so that prices rise a lot, then all they are is good property developers.

If they start charging exorbitant ground rents with compound interest increases each year, then they can rightly be called parasitic robber-barons.

Time will tell what they actually are.

Why should anyone care what the ‘progressive media’ think? Just ignore them and refuse to give them custom. Then they can scream all they like and you won’t hear about it.

Just like the Amish didn’t get vaccinated and wondered what all the Covid fuss was all about….

Do they realize eastern KY won’t let kneegrows infiltrate this venture? They may be poverty stricken and ignernt but they don’t want trannies, fags and kneegrows in their midst. Government drones won’t go in there, kneegrows don’t go in there…… this should be interesting to watch.

About 20 years ago my wife and I went to Bethany Beach. Man did it suck. We got there early and set up. As the morning rolled along we became surrounded (towel to towel) by all these old geezers. I’m not kidding, they were literally towel to towel with us. They were all overpaid government retirees. They acted like spoiled ass brat children asking each other are you going to play tennis, I use vitamin e on my face, blah, blah, blah. We finally had enough and left. I can feel my BP rising right now just thinking about their obnoxious childish behavior and knowing it was my tax dollars financing their luxurious lifestyle.

“Reality Of The Targeting Program” Symposium This Friday January 26th, 2024 12-3pm EST

What some dissidents and people who speak out against the system are already experiencing daily is what the future of complete human control will look like, unless every single one of us stands up and fights back against this program. Remember the transhumanist agenda is a Satanic agenda, and it is the technocratic One World Order.

We will explain that the targeting that thousands of individuals are experiencing worldwide is real. I have experienced it myself, and have treated many Targeted Individuals who are being remotely tortured. Why should you know about such atrocities? Because the micro chipping and total surveillance of humans is the very agenda of the AI Metaverse, social credit system, complete tracking and control grid via 5 G and extensive satellite network. TI’s were innocent civilians, implanted with microchips against their will and tortured by directed energy weapons and other means. This is not fiction, but FBI agents in US courts have testified to the reality of this program. As former FBI Chief states, this is happening in conjunction with Satanic cults and organized crime

Do these people see the irony in their decision? They are tired of the craziness of living in a big city, so they are going to get together with a bunch of other people and create the same crappy environment that caused them to move in the first place. They might as well go ahead and set up an HOA led by a busybody Karen while they are at it.
