    "This is not about “living outside of the system.”

    that’s a simple solution to what you are complaining about.

    “tried to dictate to me what my own opinion is.”

    you can have all the opinions your want, I’m correcting your factual errors.

    “How many times do I have to tell you to go fuck yourself?”

    none, that’s your shame and anxiety encouraging you to lash out repeatedly.

    about living outside of the system you are complaining about.

    about not resigning yourself to being a squealing, melodramatic pauper.

    I’m not telling you what your opinion is, I’m telling you that you are wrong by complaining that there’s no way to not contribute to these billionaires.

    you are factually incorrect. as I said multiple times, yhere are simple solutions to that problem.

    that worries you because your coping mechanism apparently is to complain that nothing can be done until you perish, beckoning for others to join you in vain.

    great, i hope you understand that your list contributed to my point, rather than being an independent thought of your own.

    Your list is inadequate and unhelpful with regards to the real world, so i offered practical ways one can thrive while not contributing to the system you’re complaining about.

    we’re working together.

    governments, peripherally, but the system in talking about doesn’t contribute to billionaires anywhere near the way you’re contributing to them right now.

    this is what you sound like to someone who actually understands how the system works:

    you are stranded in Antarctica.

    you loudly complain about how Antarctica is destroying your life, how the cold is invading your bones, how you can’t grow any food and you have no opportunities.

    a rescue boat shows up, and says they’ll take you wherever you want.

    you claim that because extreme weather exists at all, there’s no point in going anywhere.

    you scream your anxieties at the rescue boat until they leave you behind, per your wishes.

    that is how you are living, and how you want others to live.

    I’m on the other side, supported by facts, knowledge and experience.

    “There is only a few countries you can move to that allows you to not contribute to those billionaires.”

    ask questions instead of making things up.

    you are incorrect. there are dozens of countries you can teach in, contribute to education, help small business owners and keep all of your income.

    “I’m not saying that fleeing the US isn’t a good idea.”

    don’t flee the us, leave it behind where it belongs.

    ““They” is billionaires in general, not the Trump administration”

    one or all, I’d suggest getting out of billionaire clutches.

    “Living in a foreign country isn’t the loophole you think it is.”

    yeah it is, specifically for this situation that you’re complaining about.

    you want things to be futile and hopeless, but unfortunately for your ennui, there are simple solutions.

    stop working for those billionaires, and stop paying money into their system.
