1- consider switching to Linux.
2- Disable System Integrity Protection.
$ csrutil status
System Integrity Protection status: disabled.
But this will probably not work anymore in future versions of macOS… therefore
consider switching to Linux. Or FreeBSD or OpenBSD if you really want.
Note: you will need to reboot in Recovery Mode to do that.
