So here are my two ideas, defensive and offensive.

DEFENSIVE

We are going to have a completely submersible country.

External Watchtowers will warn us when there be pirates on the horizon or any other harm. We will then turn on our defence systems that will will set off the alarms, the glass dome would completely cover the land and we we would be lowered into the water, we will watch patiently on huge screens, the CCTV footage from the watch towers pointed directly towards Entlantis whilst we all get real blazed.

When the attackers get over the land, they will see it's not there. Get pissed off that they have still not won. It's like the Coyote trying to get us, except the Coyote (attackers) will NEVER defeat us. They'll give up when they realise that the huge cannabis smoke cloud they saw must of been mist. ;) Silly attackers, we are too smart for their antics.

OFFENSIVE

We use our most powerful weapon by the masses.

We will find where the armies are stationed near Entlantis and fly over them, dropping PURE THC bombs onto them. On explosion there would be no casualties, just pure euphoria. We will then have a leaders meeting where the Leader of their country/army can peacefully enter our country, meet our humble people and eat some tasty delicacies (pot brownies and the like).

They will realise how we pose no threat and are just friendly people living a peaceful life that we worked hard and fought hard for.

If that doesn't work, we fight. (We will have army training camps in Entlantis, afterall; Big countries will see our friendliness as a weakness and may make the mistake of attempting to take over our country.

If all else fails, I'm British, I'll play the "Yo, I'm British" card and call on her majesties army to save us along with any of our American brothers who can call upon their President to help us. Afterall, we will have powerful allies once we have a huge world meeting and all get real baked, Marijuana does bring people together!

Anyone? ANYONE?

Instead of all that work that we would need to create our own magical island of happiness, why don't we just all go to sealand politely ask the current inhabitants to leave.

We need money. To get money we need to sell something, and nothing sells as well as sex. Well, I wrote an essay about how to go down on girls that has had over 14,000 views and received a lot of positive feedback. Anyone could easily print it up on nice little pamphlets and sell them to people in your local community either by walking down the street selling them or by giving them to gift shops, porn shops and head shops. If you do that you can keep all the money you make. If nothing ever comes of Entlantis you can keep all the money. Or you could just keep all the money. I'm cool with that.

If you don't want to sell these but you can help turn it into a well edited, well designed physical product you can just copy the text onto your computer and do the editing and graphic design work or get someone you know to do it. Then post the finished product back onto the Entlantis subreddit so other people can copy it to their computer and take it to printers in their local area to print out and sell.

It's just a thought.

HOW TO GO DOWN ON A GIRL

My fellow dreamers, we live in an era where the possible masquerades as the impossible everyday. A world where our hopes are crushed beneath the boot heel of society. Yet all is not lost! For if we believe our shackles to be false, then we may prove them so.

It is time, my fellow ents, time to create a brighter tomorrow. Let us all move to Hawaii, and secede from the union. Here, on the glorious island chain we will make our new start, and tell the world no more will we follow.

IT IS TIME TO RISE TO THE CHALLENGE, TO DREAM THE IMPOSSIBLE DREAM, TO ENSURE WE DO NOT DIE WITHOUT EVER TRULY LIVING. ENTS, COME SMOKE WITH ME, SMOKE FOR A BETTER FUTURE.

... away from here...

... again.

It was nice meeting some of you.

Joking aside, I'm a solid [8] on a conservative scale. Nonetheless, can I get a summary of where discussion activity seems to be focused... or whatever? How far along are things, etc.

Thanks

EDIT: Okay, how about a specific question, then: So, whose idea is this, anyway? This whole Entlantis thing. If the government decides to demonize Entlantis as an insurrectionist subversion movement (blah blah blah), who is the posterchild they'll be hunting? Who is Entlantis' equivalent of wikileaks' Julian Assange?

Quick Analogy: A Cooperative of Off-Shore Marina-Communities¹

1. Using the superscript helped get me to this narrative. The number is meaningless.

Every individual service-based unit (e.g., restaurant, motel, arboretum/agrarium, etc.) could be an independently powered unit, or some could be grouped together into more spa-like environments to cater to tourism. The idea is: A bunch of "mom-and-pop shops" at sea. Which, in turn, group together into clusters of mutually-beneficial collectives, forming the basis for community evolution (social contracts).

Consider the traffic lanes circumnavigating Antarctica which connect South America, Africa, Australia/New Zealand, and the islands of the South Pacific.

Here's my design of Entlantis.

NOTE: none of this is to scale or anyway based in reality.

I tried to explain most of it inside the picture but if you have any questions please ask! I would be more than happy to ramble about these things for paragraphs.

I left plenty of room on it so if anyone would like to expand on my ideas, please go ahead!!! Oh yeah, and here's the original PSD if you want that.
