The why I think of it is why waste all your living energy doing miserable tasks and miserable work when you're going to die anyway?
Unless you're getting paid a lot of money to do those things.
There comes a point when you realize your own mortality and you see the big picture and you just say f**k it....
Despite all the talk about liberalism, feminism, "wokeism" and such, the topic of modern work culture is by far of much greater importance. The corporate rat race or the soulless 9-to-5 grind - exchanging most of one's time and life energy for a meager wage that often barely even covers one's living costs - is a much more serious affront to our personal freedom and autonomy than a bunch of women complaining about "misogyny" or some trannies demanding that we use their pronouns. Realizing that the majority of people exist as nothing more than miserable serfs for the corporate elite is the real redpill, not any of that other nonsense. Those who mindlessly support their own relentless servitude with "moral justifications" about "earning a living" and whatnot are just bluepilled fools. Those who enthusiastically promote such an arrangement are utterly perverse souls.
You have the right idea,
@kangarunner. Rather than working yourself to death for a pittance in the US slave plantation like all of those dumb Tennessee redneck Republicans whom you begrudgingly call "compatriots", instead you take up remote work and move to a country with a much cheaper cost of living and where you can afford to work less and enjoy yourself more. You thereby hack the system. That's exactly what the HA ethos is all about in its truest and purest form - hacking the system for our own advantage. A true HA'er seeks to escape the rat race and create his/her own independence. Leave the US/Western rat race plantation slave routine to the fools and naturalized serfs - those who only exist to slavishly serve others who are superior to them. Those of us who are truly redpilled about the nature of modern society should pursue alternative ways to live.
You are a true HA'er and a soul with a genuine instinct for freedom, kangarunner. You're certainly doing well with the HA lifestyle in Colombia. I hope to be in the same position some day.
