This is something I will never understand. You want all of the trappings of civilization without being part of it? You want your cake and to eat it too.

Right? That kind of mentality is just selfish. It shows that someone doesn't know how to live with others and wants to make that everyone else's problem.

Lol if you want to go live outside of civilization then go ahead; just don't expect things like electricity, roads, and running water unless you can build it yourself. Facilitating all these antisocial people living out in bumbfuck is a massive drain on resources and fucks things up for the rest of us.

Most of civilization isn't needed for the good parts to exist. The invention of the steam motor should've resulted in a ridiculously sharp decline in population, as most labor was no longer needed to feed the population.
