A gated in town doesn't spell out liberty, to me atleast. Maybe the idea is flawed on ideological grounds and it is just a pretense to make a rich-guy gated community on a paradise island?
- hakfoo 5y agoThe word's basically lost at this point. If someone says "freedom" and it's not actually RMS, it's a 90% shot they're using it as a school-bathroom-toilet-paper-thin veil over "I don't really want to pay taxes for anything other than preserving my private property rights, and can we at least privatize that too?" We almost need a new term for the old "Freedoms From (want/fear/persecution)" we used to talk about as a feature of a high-functioning civilization.
