@mia Took a few years but I eventually realized that despite everything America is all around one of the best countries in the world and I'm really lucky to live here
@mia Oh I don't feel at home here at all, I just appreciate how the occupying government's incompetence the fragmentation between states, easy access to abundant land, etc make it relatively easy to opt out of society
@scathach@mia mandatory TV license fee, mandatory health insurance fees, both of which you need a bank account for, you can't even just live on you own land you need a post address and check your mail for whenever they bother you and even then you have to renew your mandatory ID frequently at the city responsible for wherever you live
