- bambax 2y agoPeople who cannot consume drugs or walk topless in the street aren't free either.
- lazide 2y agoYup, and the hard part for many folks in the US right now is that in many areas of the US, their other freedoms (and wealth) are being taken away, using the ‘bait’ of gun rights to distract them from it. And in other areas, the same thing, but using the bait of reproductive rights. While those nominally ‘protecting’ those rights actually sabotage them in often subtle ways, while blaming the opposition. Perhaps such as it ever was? It’s hard to not yell ‘wake up sheeple!’ at the end of that.
- namlem 2y agoI agree. But there are parts of the US where you are allowed to do those things fwiw.
