We disagree fundamentally on basically every point you've made. I do not have the time or energy to debate you on any of this. You have no convinced me of the existence of liberty or freedom actually existing outside of the minds of men, and have continued to show what I believe to be the logistic contortions needed to continue to believe in these concepts actually being implemented in the real world. None of this makes you a bad person, and I wish you well in life.
- didibus 7y agoHey, no hard feelings whatsoever. By the way, I'm not saying that that's the right or best ideology. I'm just saying that there's a definition issue. You take freedom at face value, as in, I can do whatever I want without anyone trying to stop me. But people who support freedom and liberty aren't saying that. They're saying that liberty trumps all, even the rule of the majority. That there are no good reason to justify taking away someone's freedom except to protect someone else's. And that this rule is above the rule of democracy. Democracy is used only to decide on things that don't affect people's freedoms. If it does, it is overstepping its bounds, and the courts are there to judge on that. And if the system fails to uphold the liberty of its people, that the people should fight to have it back.
