what is freedom?

[JayJohn85]

Democracy is freedom. Unfortunately its a human construct and far from perfect and corporate power has infested it disgustingly and all sorts of other mumfuckery. Alas its hard to fight against greed and other various aspects of human nature. Of course when I say this I aint going to big up the American model either like everything there's room for self improvements and you can always incorporate various elements of governance hell thats what its all about. Socialism, Conservatism hell even the odd time a right wing twat has some useful point.

In plain english its when everyone has a voice, A compromise is found......The middle ground where most can agree(really nice if you get all to agree) Cant please everyone fully though but it all must fit nicely with law, common sense and Order

Cluster fucks occur when 1 mobs desire totally conflict with another mob thats really all nations are when you get down to it. Da crowd lad!

Freedom is life



Yes, I am being contrary :tongue:

I understood what you did there

 

[Jagger69]

The unimpeded ability to exercise free will without fear of reprisal.

 

[Hot Mega]

The ability to do what you want without consideration of need or compliance. In an absolute sense...it doesn't exist.

Freedom is....never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same.

 

[BlueBalls]

Freedom means never having to say you're sorry....

 

[Red Spyder]

Man is not free unless government is limited.

 

[sualcalay]

Freedom is related to power, in the sense that Power is Freedom...and governmental people have power, therein they are more free than the rest (rich people included). However freedom is not absolute. No human is completely free, and those that try to be stop being labeled as humans (people that try to overrun the morals that are needed to survive in a social environment).

Which is why I said that complete freedom can only "supposedly" be found in death, because "supposedly" after death there are no obligations...

...theoretically speaking.
