Freedom!
Freedom!
Dude, Chill.
I just love freedom! I want more freedoms!
Okay. Freedom is good. I like it too. But think about why you need freedom.
Because not having freedom, means you live under tyranny.
What if I told you the modern form of the word “freedom” - meaning exempt from slavery - didn’t really come about until the 14th century, because before then there wasn’t much tyranny to be free from.
Are you saying my freedom only exists as a concept because society developed in such a way that individuals were able to put themselves so far above others that they could subjugate them; and before that there didn’t need to be the concept of freedom as we know it today because societies generally weren’t as stratified as they are now and that most societies and indigenous peoples thought of themselves as more part of a collective than as individuals eternally striving for more freedom?
Your smarter than you look.
Freedom from freedom!
Well, I tried.
