Is it actually possible to go live in the bush self sufficiently without a shitload of startup money? Would you require licenses for hunting and fishing? Would you be allowed to build yourself a shelter on land you don't own? Start cook fires? I really don't think so. What if you have children? Pretty sure society won't allow you to raise them in a cave.
Sovcits are hilarious but don't pretend we can all just opt out of society if we want to.

I just feel like saying it. I may not have thought it through!

But the assumption is that you pick somewhere remote that you won't be noticed. NZ has a lot of land and not a lot of people so I have no doubt it's doable. There's that guy down Christchurch way living in a cave, and he's not even trying to avoid society.

I also like to imagine all the sovcits don't have kids, because it's less funny if they have kids, for many reasons.
