It's a lot of money but a clever tactic so I'm tickled.
St. Kitts & Nevis has a program right now where if you buy real estate and development it, you can get citizenship. They got stomped by some hurricanes and this is a way to get foreign investors to help rebuild.

Hanif Abdurraqib is awesome and, while I need to sit down and read his books, I love watching the videos of him recite his own works.
Masto isn't perfect and it's still really white, but I like it here because it has the potential to be such an awesome example of cultural collaboration is we can all just _listen to each other_
In my estimation, that is the only obstacle I can see that is hindering this platform from really taking off.

"Leave politics out of tech."
People build tech. People use tech. You cannot have tech without people. So, yes, people will be bringing politics, rights, and representation into tech with them.
The only people I see whining about politics being brought into tech are (checks notes) oh look. White men.
