It's really fucking common in the internet wild. It's even common offline.
"Just pack up your entire life and move out of here if you don't like it here. No one is holding a gun to your head to stay."
Oh, I did, but it took years of planning, preparation, savings, and an early retirement with the penalties that entailed. There was no gun, but I couldn't whisk myself out of Bazinga Land in CA any faster than I could sell a flooded house to Aquaman.
That's it. That's the post. No one held a gun to my head to post this, but I did it anyway.
I'm glad someone else knows about that death camp gate slogan getting flung around as profound unspecified ancient wisdom too.
Whenever I see this, I usually think "Thank you for explicitly saying where you actually stand."
