Could well be a real estate pump-n-dump scheme. One white supremacist in the town tells his buddies that real estate can be had cheaply, and this is a great way to make a statement, etc. Then they come in and start buying up land and going public about what they’re doing. Then opposition groups hear about it, get their panties all bunched, and they start buying up land, and a bidding war starts. The locals sell all their worthless holdings at a good price, clear out, and let the white supremacists and their foes duke it out. If you’re stuck in a dying ass-end-of-nowhere town with real estate nobody will buy, desperation becomes the mother of genius, and you think of schemes like this.
