There’s no single correct answer, and as with most issues there are a lot more than two sides. You already implied a third one here - fleeing without being a coward. Question: assuming you’re not a low-paid doctor in a free clinic, providing much-needed healthcare to people who can’t afford it… do you feel like a coward for that? Truth is we aren’t all suited to actively and effectively fight the system, any more than we’re all suited to be doctors or lawyers or athletes. You’re allowed to make life decisions without beating yourself up for not being a saint.
