What is freedom, what does it mean to you?

It's an ideological state of mind. It means peace and tranquility for me.

Being left alone.

To set off my own homemade nuke at the trinity site and not catch no slack for my fireworks display!
That's true freedom!

Freedom is options. It's being able to do WTF I want when I want, as long as I can pay for it!

One could in theory obtain this state of mind in prison. Not sure this a working definition. Although certainly these are desirable states to obtain.

Barbara, do you need a hug?

Say hello to moose please.

Again, one could be in solitary confinement.

Castaway on a deserted island...freedom? I'd argue not really.

It's a treaty between persons to act responsibly towards our fellow earthlings.

Free me, or die.

Okay, but here's a question: I'm free to murder people but I must also accept consequences if I choose to do those things.

So do consequences of your actions inhibit freedom?

Solitary confinement is most certainly not being left alone.

we didn't exactly chose being on this planet.

A treaty is a form of bondage, the opposite of freedom. Although people do have the freedom to choose voluntary bondage.

Maybe we did? Hard to say.

we aren't aware and no way to prove it if we did.

The knowledge and ability to freely provide your own basic necessities.

Perma-culture gardens/orchards, chicken coops, etc should be common place in free places.

I like it, but your freedom to do those things is contingent on the proximity of your neighbor.

You're in the suburbs with a rooster waking everyone up at all hours, well, someone has to intervene.

For lack of government might makes right.

Recognizing that there is a choice being presented in each moment and choosing with awareness how you will respond, not being bound or oppressed by a force one feels compelled to act out.

I'm not playing the Marxist game. If you do not like it here in the USA you can always defect.

I like it, but often times the choices presented to us are both dictated by the same originator.

You want Trump or Clinton? For example.

Bye!

Who has more freedom in the world? Answer that fucking question!

EVerywhere is basically the same. A tit here, a tat there but pretty much the same. Propaganda to the contrary not withstanding.

There's no freedom of speech in China. They can harvest your fucking organs if you buck the line there. They don't do that shit here. STFU

I guess I stumped you...

Make sure you use it as a crutch like all commies do!

Not being jailed and having a bunk buddy named Bubba.

That's FREEDOM

The choice I see being presented in that statement is not Trump or Clinton, rather (Trump or Clinton) or (removing my approval from that fake choice).

IDK...might be an Indian villager or a Norwegian girl raising kittens or Argentinian descendant of SS officers how the hell would I know?

If you think USA is "The Best" it's because you are watching US propaganda telling you it's "The Best" and you believe it because USA.

It's like you're watching professional wrestling and thinking it's real lol.

Bro, do you even GLP?
