I have knowingly voted for less freedoms for myself multiple times and I know it, for example I have voted:
- to have less freedom to pollute the environment.
- to have less freedom where I am able to defraud my customers.
- to have less freedom to have less ability to lie about medical "benefits" of fake cures.
I am also a big proponent of freedom-limiting legislation like GDPR which prevents myself and my employer from secretly collecting and processing your personal information.
And I am currently part of the "Stop Killing Games" initiative which will hopefully restrict the freedom of games companies to sunset and withdraw purchases without a clear roadmap or similar remedy.
- bdisl 1y agoThat is a lot of typing for a massive strawman that is more likely to belong in Reddit than here.
- Y-bar 1y agoI understood your comment as restricting my own freedoms was a fully bad thing, and I therefore tried to provide examples of positive freedoms being afforded to you by restricting my own negative freedoms. Explain why that is a straw-man.
- shazbotter 1y agoIt's not, you refuted their obviously poorly constructed argument directly. They just have an ideological axe to grind.
