> Defeatism is easy I prefer easy. If you prefer difficult, more power to you.

It's the same easy as falling out of a plane without a parachute. Gravity will do all the work but you'll not like what happens at the bottom.

  Isn't it easier just not to board the plane, who really enjoys being at an airport?

    You were never at an airport. You fell asleep in your bed and woke up on the plane. Fighting the people taking you somewhere you don't want to go is definitely more work than falling out of the plane. It just has a specific advantage.

    > who really enjoys being at an airport? Not every airport is a huge commercial building with hundreds of people (also, you wouldn’t visit one of those to parachute jump). Some are akin to cozy shacks without a lot of traffic where you’re in and out in no time.

> I prefer easy. Clearly you don’t feel that strongly about it. You know what would’ve been easier than making an account just to post that comment? Not doing that. Have you also stopped working, paying your bills, showering, eating, interacting with other people? Not doing any of that is easier than doing it.
