Oh yeah, let's just spam 4chan and become worse than cancer begging for handouts. Pass.

We could have a fundraiser of sorts. But label it as raising money for under-privileged kids in Africa, seeming as "Help fund our efforts to takeover an island" wouldn't get very much support from the general public.
Or alternatively we could get in contact with someone with a large disposable income (Like Warren Buffett or some shit) to donate money, that way they could write it off on their taxes and we get our funding.

We don't need (and aren't going to get) handouts of any kind. My whole point is that the movement can be built with very little money if we proceed in stages. We likely already have enough to begin establishing a self-sufficient community (or communities) within our home countries, especially the United States. There's very little stopping us other than a lack of participation. I'm not really sure how to nurture that, though. Spamming threads isn't the answer when we can't even keep the people, whom we already have, engaged and participating.
