How do you define "freedom"
This isn't aimed only at Americans. How do you define this term?

To me, freedom in a first world country is the ability to learn anything you want, and say anything you want. Sure, I enjoy being able to strap impact explosives and a road flare to the side of a propane tank and then shoot the whole affair with my sniper rifle, but that's less philosophical and more of a practical freedom...

Much different than Obama.
-
Freedom is the right to be white and Christian and to denounce anything different
-
Freedom is the right to have an opinion or make a decision without someone getting really pissed off at you about it and preventing it from happening.

Freedom - the square root of America.

3 RepliesThe Americans speak of freedom, but they have no idea what true freedom really is! They are imprisoned by their laws and customs and their so-called 'civility'. They are selfish people. They live frivolous, wasteful lives, possessing neither purpose nor direction! America and it's people are sick. Poisoned by uncertainty. They debate and they doubt, questioning themselves and others, always unwilling to see what is right before them. We will make them see, and as we hold their heads in our hands, they will stare into the face of tomorrow and they will finally understand.

Edited by camaleon22: 11/20/2014 11:33:56 PMThe freedom to due what you want regardless of the masses' conduct. This is dangerous though. Freedom has no definition. What came be freedom for me might be slavery for the next guy. During the Civil War, Southerners had the freedom to own slaves. Slavery was their basis of freedom. Governments and authorities condemn unique definitions of freedom. They condemn freedom. United States, listen, learn and change. The distribution of Human thought, and this illusion you provide, is unfortunately pretty convincing. Not to me, and not to anybody who will read this post. Ps - Im writing a book on all sorts of related ideas, and my opinion on them. Tell me if you want more light, for I will listen and respond, freely.
