Self-exiled French conspiracy theorists attempt to set up a sovereign utopia in a desolate Bulgarian village called Mamarchevo. This turns into death threats, people getting scammed out of tens of thousands of euros, a plot to abduct a child, the flying of a Nazi flag, and lots and lots of alcohol. Our guest is journalist Anthony Mansuy, who you may remember from our exploration of French sovereign citizens and our two part investigation into the Cambridge Analytica scandal. The episode is based on an article he wrote for the French newspaper “Society”. He spent months chasing the story, and even traveled to Mamarchevo to interview those involved and experience their utopia first-hand. We also ask him about the general state of conspiracy theorizing in France and what the hell is happening with their recent political meltdown.
