A couple of days ago some houses together were sold in Ireland. A missed/lost opportunity for Tradition in many ways. They could easily have been bought by some Traditionalists. A friend alerted me to it but it was too late in the day to make publicity and raise finance.
Co-operatives need to be established and houses in rural areas need to be bought. Catholic villages will be the result.
I'm sure it is and will be applied in other countries also. I remember a thread about it here on Cath Info.
We need to be rebuilding our society with an emphasis on ruralism.

I agree and have considered doing something similar here in the states.
The problem is that any such settlement will have to comply with the anti-Catholic laws of the country it is in.
Unless you are prepared to declare independence, which I have also considered.

These things most always fail.
Not least because you are attracting a load of people who are running away from the big bad world.
I know two Trad brothers both married with children who cannot even share an acre of land gifted to them by their father. They've fallen out over something or other and now are not talking to each other despite the fact that they live within the same compound and can see each other's houses and gardens from their windows.
Trad villages have been tried before and they never last. Opinionated self-righteous people who shoot at each other and declare people "heretics" at the drop of a hat are not going to be able to make a village work.
The SSPX can't even hold it together, you think some rural village in Ireland a bankrupt country with few jobs can?
It would quickly become a cult hellhole, the best people would leave and only the cult slaves and the cult leaders would remain until finally it collapsed because of economic reality hitting home.
