Sam, “chofshi” means independent” as Rambam says at the end of Hilchot Melachim.Unfortunately, a certain Leftist group has appropriated it.The soluiton is for frm Jews to make aliya, become citizens and vote.

Health, one cannot be a complete Jew in the Lands of Tuma (as per Chazal). Ramban even says that the mitzvot Jews do do there are just to keep from getting rusty. If you want to read something really “extreme” look at Rabbi Chanina says on Ketubot 111a.
