Maybe the following broad strategy suggestions
could lead to worthwhile action:
1. Identify the major "entropic forces" on
Earth (candidates: coercive political systems,
religions, fiat money systems, coercive tax
systems, coercively controlled health systems,
etc.).
2. Identify "frontiers" in terms of which
extropic individuals, "escape from," transcend,
and withdraw support from "entropic forces"
(example: use free-market, gold-based digital
currencies such as e-gold
<http://www.buildfreedom.com/e-gold.htm> in
as many of your transactions as possible).
3. I believe that all kinds of non-geographic
extropic "frontiers" are available to extropians
right now. Maybe extropian pioneers can be found
to form a vanguard to lead other extropians away
from "entropic forces" toward "Extropy on Earth!"
