Edit: I was going to take this down because it is indeed very black & white, and the real world doesn’t work that way. I feel like this is generating good discussion though.

    Go to America and you’ll immediatery get tyranny and freedom at the same time.

    I mean, freedom isn’t the only way. Evem freedom can be a tyranny if it’s neo-liberalism

      Freedom is just kind of a bad concept, because it becomes self-contradictory really quickly, as one person’s freedom may end where another’s begins.

      IE Should tyrants have the freedom to be tyrants? Is it tyranny to forbid tyrants from being tyrants?
