linux - Having issues deleting Anaconda on my Mac

Question

I'm trying to completely uninstall Anaconda on my Mac but I'm running into issues removing the files. The Anaconda files were saved in ~/opt and when I try to remove it using $ sudo rm -rf /opt I get this error: rm: /opt: Read-only file system so I try remounting it by doing: mount -o remount,rw /opt and I get this error: mount: /opt: unknown special file or file system.

I've also tried using commands like unmount as well, and I've had no success... If someone could help me, I would really apprecite it!
