They can waste my time but not taking my time away from me, especially when you move away from big cities; you pretty much have no business with them anymore. Everything is done through p2p - I brought the majority of my things directly from makers.
I understand what you mean, but then it's also up to me to choose weather to deal with them, e.g. if I need to cross the borders, then unfortunately I would need to deal with that BS 😂

why do you think that Venezuela is the only communist country in the world?
Venezuela is not even a full communist place... btw, they are just playing it, is just the beginning of full communist system.
Maybe I was in NK.

but then I have learned that communism and democracy are pretty much the same, madness.! the real freedom is being self-responsible and do not expecting anything form others, and def not believing some empty talks from politicians.

This is one of the meta I learned and adopted in communism era.
Suited very well for my entire life.
My own grandfather once told me: a day that if you do not smile or laugh one day is a lost day in your life.
Maybe that's why I will live 120 years... (my grandfather lived 110 yrs)

The state can take pretty much anything you give them. So don't give them anything you don't absolutely have to give them. In the US most citizens cede their lives to the state in many unnecessary ways. There are more things they can't take from you than things they can take. Others have given answers I agree with so I won't repeat them here.
Even those that claim to value freedom have believed the lie that the state is some all powerful god that can do anything they want to the plebs. This is a fiction. A massive one in fact.
Instead of focusing on what they take focus on your own sovereignty and control over your destiny. Don't say I can't. Say, how can I? Ponder the possibilities. Live with determination to be free in your mind, soul, and body. Be a beacon of freedom, sovereignty, and liberty in your family and community. This is the way.

I think the answer depends heavily on the location and what we focus on. But if it is Western Europe I would say the freedom to leave. If it is Japan, I would say dignity, critical thinking (because the country is more free than Western European countries we don't need to leave hahaha).
If I was to go to the US, as someone who never went there, I would say my memory can't be taken away.

Those seem outside of their control. Further out of their control than education I imagine.
If they're material, yes. I told a friend who is hustling for a dope crib, "you, yourself, are the only dope crib you need."
