If it was done as a worker's co-op it should be possible to use the idea to avoid the worst apsects of capitalist immmiseration through group cost savings. Living with a group of politically like minded people seems attractive. Allowing comrades you live with to hold you accountable for your organizing, lifestyle and productivity would probably be a positive thing for everyone here tbh. Am guilty. A lot more theory would be read in general lol.
I mean, it's probably better suited to single people that would be willing to relocate, but it seems surprising that it's not a bigger thing, especially with the cost of accomodation.
Got this fantasy of a derelict office block at the end of a cycle path, say 40mins cycle from a city to get the cheaper real estate, converted for communal living.
bet the cost of living was cheap as hell 😍
Exactly! On a public transport route or a cycle path, near a city, shared vehicles, they avoided many municipal and planning fees because everything was technically a temporary structure. The kitchen building was a large container sized office-type cabin . It looked pretty idyllic tbh.
