Example: I believe that IP is a direct contradiction of nature, sacrificing the advancement of humanity and the world for selfish gain, and therefore is sinful.

This is the basis for every sovereign citizen (aka “sovcits”); isn’t it? Doesn’t sovereign citizenry really only make sense if a sovcit goes “all the way”? I ask this because sovcits seem to partake in society’s services provided by the collective (like roads, traffic signals, police, firefighters, etc.) while complaining about state overreach when (1) they have to pay something like property tax or (2) when they have to deal with LE. I’m not saying you’re wrong to have a sovcit mentality, but doesn’t a sovcit have to stop using society’s services and put up a real defense when LE gets involved? I’m not recommending you do either; I’m just saying while the system is flawed, at least, Western “democracies” have one. The alternative seems to be (1) leaving the country or (2) fighting anybody who threatens your sovereignty.
If it were legal, and mind you this is hilarious to me, I’d disappear into the woods and never return or put my coin into the suicide booth, but as I said it isn’t legal. Land is somehow owned and never by the people that need it the most, and bodily autonomy isn’t even ours.
I get what you’re saying, but I pay my taxes and participate in this machine just like anyone else, but I don’t like it. And the system isn’t flawed. It works as it is meant to.
This country, US, doesn’t want me and I have nothing to provide any other country so I’m stuck, and I’m certainly to weak and cowardly to fight anyone or anything over my bleak views.
I understand the frustration, but that third paragraph suggests you’re not very happy with yourself? I ask because everybody knows a country is not a sentient being with feelings and opinions; a country is just a variety of individuals with differing opinions. Anyway, flowers can grow even in junkyards; can we not find peace and the means to enjoy and improve ourselves… in any country?
