Why don't you join?

Just say you can't give up your privileged life to live on a farm and I'll understand.
I think you're making the assumption that modern Liberal capitalism allows for all forms of habitation equally. I've looked up communes. They're few, far between, and generally don't seem to exist for long. The reasons for this are debatable of course but the idea that I could just Google "communes near me" and just start my new life is silly.
