me personally, i like the fact that i have the capability of owning one. Much like anything else in life, i like being in control of things i interact with and use from day to day life. It's why im a linux user, it's why i self host a lot of services that i use. I do not like being dependent on others for things that i know i adequately provide for myself.

It's no more than feeding my individualism at the end of the day. And i don't think that's a negative thing. I'm sure people would tell me im a shitty person for not wanting to contribute to society, but i also never wanted to exist in the first place, so i think it's a little fucking daft to claim that i owe something to a thing i'm not particularly fond of to begin with. But that's a different rant altogether so.
