The Seattle temporary thing was something like 0.0001% of what Christiana is. (I was there 20 years ago and am very happy to hear your implication it is still there.) Actually, add a few hundred zeroes. Christiana actually runs something sustainable and partly autonomous of the rest of the society. The awful article reaches light-years beyond the merely absurd with the words "establishment" and "government." A riot (initiated as almost always by cop outrages) was allowed to hold some blocks for a few days, something that even in U.S. history happens an average of every five years. And of course it made no serious claims of being a "government." By this intellectual miscreant's standard, every political squat or factory occupation is the establishment of a competing government, Zuccotti Park was the Paris Commune, the Bundy bullshit and Waco were nation-states, and the LA riots of 1992 and the Utah 'war' were both bigger than the Roman Empire.
