I wonder if it's bigger than Sealand: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Principality_of_Sealand

When I look at the list of demands I'm pretty quick to dismiss it. Then I remember how I dismissed the 1999 WTO protests in Seattle too, and how many of the fears those protesters had were realized over the next two decades. I might be too hopeful, but I really think the city leadership should talk to them and hear them out, instead of just trying to push them over.

The list of demands came from an open mic discussion. They let anyone come up and suggest a demand.

Someonen transcribed those demands and then posted them.

I think it would be better to view those demands as the union of demands of each person willing to speak to a crowd. Which is why you see inconsistency in then, why it's such a long list, etc.

I just think that list of demands is better understood in that context.

Its not a list of demands if it's ridiculous and can't be realistically filled. At that point its just a list of wishes.
