Ah, so it's okay for the US to have gone into Iraq and destroyed the country, killing hundreds of thousands in the process, then abandoning it, all to shore up support for a shaky election for an incumbent president at home... because you live a cushy SV lifestyle?

If you really are as sick as you emote about these kind of atrocities, then move away from the US, because the US hurts a lot of people to maintain its high standard of living. New Zealand is a pretty ethical place that doesn't kill either it's own citizens or those abroad. Its economy doesn't rely on abusing migrant workers. It has a decent tech scene. Go there.

Or you could just do the usual counter-counter-culture blather while not actually changing your life to suit your stated morals.
