The hilarity of "Black Hammer City" continues

I wrote in a previous blog post about the "Black Hammer Organization" (an organization that, perhaps a bit surprisingly, is actually widely considered a bona fide cult, including by ex-members) and their "Black Hammer City" project, which was their intent to build an independent "city" somewhere in Colorado that would be their personal communist utopia where white people and cops aren't allowed.

Back then I said that I hope they actually go and do it, just to see it fail miserably because they quite clearly don't understand what it takes to actually create a functioning livable town full of people. I envisioned their little silly project ending relatively soon after it started, with just a few unlivable shacks having been haphazardly built, with no running water, no electricity, no food production (with any food being just purchased from some nearby town with their quickly diminishing funds), and overall completely unhygienic unlivable conditions.

Turns out, they actually did go to Colorado and they did try to purchase some plot of land for themselves, in May of 2021, them consisting of people carrying firearms and wearing military gear.

However, they missed a deadline to sign the documents for acquiring the land two weeks later, and some days later they were escorted out by local law enforcement (because they were still squatting there).

Do you know what they managed to build during those two weeks?

A half-finished footbridge over a drainage ditch.

That's it. That's the entire extent of their building achievements during the first two weeks. And it's not like a drainage ditch is some really wide river. A drainage ditch is usually about 1 to 2 meters wide shallow ditch. Any capable or even semi-capable carpenter would easily build a working footbridge over that in a half day.

So their funny little fantasy project ended sooner than I imagined, and was significantly more of a failure and show of utter incompetence than I thought.

Needless to say, all the money that was donated to them (some 60 thousand USD give or take) went to complete waste, and into the stomachs of the delusional larpers to live their delusion for a couple of weeks.
