There was a thread on freedom that I wanted to reply to, and as I pressed reply, it mysteriously disappeared.. Still interesting discussion, so here goes my reply:
Freedom does not exist in any society. You can only be free alone outside of society and having grown up not knowing any type of society. As soon as you enter the world of your parents, you are trapped by the constraints set up for you by them which they got from their parents and society in general.
Since it is impossible for human beings to survive the first years of their lives alone, true freedom is impossible to acquire ever. Your mind has been "contaminated" to the point that you can't even think outside of some sort of society.
Drug use, criminal conduct etc. are all societal constraints imposed on us by society. The label alone is something society has created for us.
So is the belief that we are free in this society. So many people have fallen for the biggest lie in the history of mankind: that we are free even as our freedom is taken away from us the day that we are born.
