Coleridge—who planned, with Robert Southey, a Pantisocracy “at a convenient distance, from Cooper’s Town on the banks of the Susquehanna”—out of the Notebooks:
“A great Man’s Book in this Country like a Candle in Lapland, extinguished the moment after it was lit by Insects, Gnats, & Buzzflies—”

You guise wanna hear the funniest thing to happen in 1795?
![Pantisocracy (from the Greek πᾶν and ἰσοκρατία meaning "equal or level government by/for all") was a utopian scheme devised in 1794 by, among others, the poets Samuel Taylor Coleridge and Robert Southey for an egalitarian community. It is a system of government where all rule equally. They originally intended to establish such a community in the United States, choosing a site on the banks of the Susquehanna River after considering other places such as Kentucky.[1] By 1795 Southey had doubts about the viability of this and proposed moving the project to Wales.
Punchline: The two men were unable to agree on the location, causing the project to collapse.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:gq6h25zrxme7ddvfb2mev7y3/bafkreigcysbidzqdwfmp6tw5olpsrfm7c4urm65dis6tuswjpoqkvbwu3q)
