Let's be extra generous and assume you meant leave and renounce.
Now let's talk about those harrowing deductions, which you are somehow ignorant of.
So it is decided you have to do X, otherwise leave, but actually leaving isn't enough. You have to show up at my special location (embassy), outside the country, using the passport I may or may not issue you (if you owe me lots of tax, or child support, you do not get it -- even if you need to leave the country to earn more money) -- pay me $2350, possibly an exit tax, and deal with setting up appointments and probably returning a couple times when I say with bureaucrats.
And so by not doing all those things, you have given consent. Even though many people paying taxes don't even have $2350 to their name, so they can't even buy a passport from the people taxing them let alone pay the renunciation fee.
You would definitely not be comfortable with this definition of 'consent' for anything sexual, for most things financial, and for anything involving your personal effects. It is a bastardized version of consent using mental acrobatics specially for taxes.

>You also don't have to leave! You can simple declare yourself sovereign and let the foreign country engulfing your independent domain decide how it wants to conduct foreign policy with you.
This plan doesn't work. The only reliable way available to renounce is to leave the country and show up in a country with consular access (embassy normally). Declaring your own country wouldn't allow you to renounce because you would have no consular access to renunciation without going back into US land/airspace to go into another country.
What are you talking about? Just walk, swim, boat, or drive (travel) outside of the country. No one in the US is going to stop you. Air travel and passports are expedited methods that use government services. You can avoid those!
> declaring your own country wouldn't allow you to renounce because you would have no consular access
You are again thinking within the system. It doesn't matter what the US thinks if you have exited its control. Just declare independence. If they fail to respect that, you are a sovereign person who can force them to respect it. Plenty of nations have no diplomatic relations with others.
I mean you can walk into Mexico without documentation. But that's beside the point that dude is free to leave the country and therefore consenting to the terms of living here.
