I've had a crazy idea rolling around in my head and I would appreciate criticism on where I'm going wrong.
Lately I've been reading a lot about the Amish and watching Varg Vikernes videos about exiting society and living off-grid.
Orania in South Africa celebrated its 25th birthday earlier this year and I've been looking into the similarities between them, the Amish, and what makes them successful, and the following 3 strike me as key:
2 - They have their own languages, Pennsylvania Dutch for the Amish and Afrikaans for the Oranians. This is important because it provides a significant soft barrier of entry. If a neighborhood existed in the United States where everyone only spoke Cambodian to one another, I would not want to buy a house there.
3 - Neither of them is explicitly "pro-white." Whenever questioned on why they live as they do, the reasons given are always along the lines of living the lifestyle of their choice, raising their children without outside influence, or practicing their freedom of religion as they see fit, etc.
With all that in mind, here is my idea and I would much appreciate any constructive criticism on it...
I've been interested in off-gridding for a long time and have been saving a lot of money and working towards being able to mostly work from home. I now have the money necessary to purchase hundreds of acres of uninhabited, airable land. The land would be located approximately one hour away from a major city, so commuting to and from for employment would be possible. The idea would be to start very small. Build my own self sustaining setup with wells dug, solar, perhaps wind/water wheel power if feasible, gardens, chickens, etc.
The plan would begin to take effect when I start inviting other off-gridders that I befriend who meet my criteria to build and live on my land. My criteria will be that they are:
-white
-redpilled
-want to raise a traditional family in peace and safety
-have a means of income to support themselves long-term.
I would continue to allow more and more in, and as more and more land is utilized, it could eventually become profitable to sell what we produce. Once this happens, a select number of the inhabitants could quit their external jobs and work full-time growing crops, raising alpacas, whatever it ends up being. Once a few hundred people are living there, we would begin to have need for things like our own private school, a local doctor who visits your home as in antiquity, maybe a diner, etc. We wouldn't need an actual police force, as neighborhood watch volunteers would take care of that, as it does in Orania, which is virtually crime-free anyway.
Eventually the powers that be will find out about us and the machine will go to work on trying pozz and demonize us. This is when we need to have a narrative ready to present to the media and this is the phase I am looking for ideas the most on. I think we have a few options here and they are not mutually exclusive...
1 - We state that we all just want to live as independently from government as possible and enjoy the lifestyle of off-gridding to give ourselves the most control over our own lives.
2 - We find the public education system unsatisfactory and desired to create our own system for our children.
3 - We wanted to create a way for couples to produce large families that may not be easy or affordable to do in the modern world.
An alternative option is that we simply go balls out with the 14 words and say that we wanted to combat white demographic decline, so we decided to start a coalition of ourselves to produce as many white children as possible. We argue that this is the best way to solve the problem because we are doing it in a completely non-violent way. When a journalist interviews me on why I discriminate against non-whites, I could say, "I don't discriminate against people who are not white. If any non-whites want to come into my organization to help produce white children, they are welcome to come help us in that endeavor."

I may have given the impression that it would be an entirely self-sustaining community which I did not intend. The goal would be for it to become that one day, but not for many years. The first inhabitants will be selected only among a pool of people who can prove that they have a sustainable source of income. This could include computer programmers that telecommute as you mentioned, people that work in the field traveling for a week here and there but otherwise working from home (as I do), or people that simply already have a lot of money, retirees perhaps. I also mentioned in the OP that the land would be approximately an hour's drive away from a fairly large city, so people could potentially commute back and forth for employment.
The main thing is that the growth would happen very very slowly, and the only new inhabitants will be those people who are financially capable of building a home and sustaining their income. The only freebies I will be offering is to build on land that they do not have to buy. I am as of yet undecided on how I want to work ownership rights in this plan. I am hesitant at the idea of splitting up ownership in any fashion.

If you run it as your own private enclave, dictator style, it will cause problems. If you let it be run through community democracy, someone could turn the community against you (it happens). How good are your in-person people skills? Do you think that you have the persuasive charisma and wisdom to be considered a thought-leader, community head, even without actually flexing any muscle?

I consider myself charismatic enough to settle disagreements and to be a public speaker when the eventual time comes for that. But yeah I would have to figure out an alternative ownership no matter what, since I will of course be dead eventually. Orania's system seems to work well for them, where the entire town is a corporation, and lands purchased are considered shares of the company. They're led by a group of 12 shareholders.
