I can only speak of those who I have actually met, and my impression was that those with microhomes chose one because of the allure of having a home that they could afford more than any sort of flounce. The same also applies to the person who was going “off the grid”: not decoupling from society, not being selfish, but trying to be less of a consumer.
(At least, that was the given reason. I think a large unspoken factor was the hipness of mircohomes and of going off the grid.)
I don’t know anyone who has gone seasteading or otherwise tried to leave conventional government, so I cannot speak for them. But I feel your observation is pretty correct, that it’s a combination of gold-rush mentality amongst the “pioneers” and selfishness. Perhaps a little bit of “wouldn’t it be cool” mixed in, I really don’t know.

Both examples perfectly consistent with the concept of “not a lot.”
Considering how worried Turkey and the Iraq-Kurdish Peshmerga are about them and their popularity in Rojava, I would have to disagree with your view.
Or are you saying it’s not a lot on a global scale? Wouldn’t that be true of any political belief anywhere?
I find it fascinatin how prejudicial people can be against others they know so little about based uppon a massively flawed descriptor such as liberal, conservative, libertarian, etc. etc. One of my favorite examples is how media, so generously places an ( R ) or ( D ) next to a quoted or described person’s name in a story to help out the readers. This way, they don’t need to be bothered with thinking too much and they quickly know if they disagree with the idiot or praise the genius
