New ideas in expating

I have never been a huge proponent of expating.  I certainly understand why any man might expat.  At some point I may do it myself.  The problem I have with expating is that women are the same everywhere.  A lot of guys who expat do so just to find a woman.  As we all know you can't bring a woman back to the US at all since she can and most likely will absorb feminist tendencies.  Even if you never come back to the US, feminism is still out there to influence women due to American (and European) global media.

On the other hand if you're expating because you're worried that the US is going to turn full totalitarian soon, that is more understandable and makes sense for expating.  One of the things I have never liked about expating is how the main options for it are third world countries.  If the US is about to turn totalitarian then it really doesn't matter since getting out is the main priority.

However, there are new ideas in expating that solve (or at least lessen) some of issues in expating.  There's an idea that a man who goes by the name, spocksdisciple, came up with called "inpating" in which rather than going to another country, a man moves to a low population rural area.  He describes it here with some additional thoughts on expating in general.  Here is what inpating is in his own words:
An alternative rarely discussed to expating is "inpating" otherwise called "Siberian" exile, I've thought about this as well, it's a bit easier as you're not actually leaving the country, you're just leaving the antfarms called cities behind(where most femnazis and manginas are at). My own plan is to move to the Yukon territories(or Alaska if you're American) and a small town or city, this option is more for true MGTOWs and men who have left the need for women and regular sex behind them. Many men won't be able to follow this path because of a lack of appropriate skills, motivation and self discipline. Some call it "hermiting" I call it ultimate freedom, anyone who's ever been backpacking or lived in remote areas for extended periods of time will know what I'm talking about, nobody around to judge you or to make rules for you or shame you, also nobody around to care what happens to you. Freedom is a two edged sword...this is a test of what you're really made of as a man and as a human being.
"Inpating" is an idea that can work for a man right now.  Spocksdisciple suggests Alaska which is good for inpating, but even North Dakota or Montana might be good enough.  Depending on what a man wishes to do, "inpating" can be a good alternative to expating.

Another idea that might come online in the future is "charter cities" (i.e. Hong Kongs).  If you look at the charter cities website, the founder of the idea was looking for a way improving the third world through the use of importing the laws and practices of first world countries.  Whether that idea would work is beside the point.  Charter cities would allow an real easy to access alternative since there would be some partnership between a third country and a first world country.  A charter city has the best of both worlds, of expating to a third world country while still retaining first world standards of living.  The most likely locations for charter cities are in Asia where many of the good expat destinations already are.  The charter cities blog is good for finding out more about the concept.

Another possible future idea is seasteading, homesteading on the high seas.  Seasteading is a concept created by Patri Friedman, the grandson of Milton Friedman.  Since seasteads are on the high seas, they are outside any zone that any current country can claim.  This makes seasteads truly independent states.  Friedman has developed an incremental plan for seasteading so the initial stages all can be done with currently existing technology so its much more realistic than you might think.  More can be found out about seasteading at its website.

Out of these ideas, inpating is the only idea available now.  However, we might see some charter cities in the future and most likely will see seasteading in the future since Friedman has a real plan to make seasteading a reality.

"Inpating" is a far better term than what we've been using, that of "going back to the land". My husband and I have been working towards the goal of buying land somewhere, for the purpose of Walden style homesteading, since we got married. Montana and Alaska are among our list of possible locales.

We're still at least a year or two away from being able to do so in cash, but in the meantime we have been prepping beyond just the financial aspect, by learning necessary skills for homesteading and exposing ourselves to the experience, bit by bit, before we make the great leap. The place we're in the midst of moving into now is a semi-rural rental home, where I could garden, bring my chickens, and need to bring a shotgun while hiking in the woods in case I run into any wildlife that might be a bit too interested in humans. The cougars and bears aren't supposed to wander in these woods, but they might not have gotten that memo.

Seasteading also sounds fascinating and is another term new to me. Always neat to learn something new!

Nothing wrong with that. Each man has to act according to his own self-interest. If he feels he can't find a suitable mate among the pool of locally available candidates, then why not go abroad where he can? Who cares about what other men may think as long as HE himself is happy and able to live with his decision.

Besides, far worse things such as wars and kingdoms have been won and lost over women. This is nothing new and a man will go to the ends of the earth to feel like a man.

This is incorrect. You're assuming that women (while I concede they are susceptible to assimilation by the Borg) are not human beings capable of making up their own minds. Most women outside of the Entitlement Feminist societies have been reared with strong cultural norms and values that are the antithesis of Feminism. And are just as unwavering about them. No, they are not all angels but at least you're not searching for tootsie rolls in a tidepool of turds.

The ones who've made it back and all of a sudden "transformed" were most likely no good to begin with. Many men searching for wives overseas do NOT do proper vetting and due diligence. They ignore glaring red flags and wonder why on day 732 (Green Card Day) she bolts like a runaway slave. I see it happen all the time. The saying here goes that everyone knew she was no damn good but the idiot gringo she played the role for. They concentrate on the trophy/eye candy instead of giving things critical thought.

Lastly, look at it this way: people are not so swift and easy to toss their ENTIRE LIFE CORE VALUE SYSTEM out the window because of peer pressure. Seriously, would you?

Forgot to mention that inpatting is a great idea. Communities of like minded individuals would work well together and don't have to live like hermits. Take the Amish, for example. Very enterprising, self-sufficient inpats that do what works for them. The only thing is, that as you mentioned there would have to be some underlying basis for cooperation and rule of law.
