      A while back on R*ddit I had this discussion with a “libertarian” where they unironically defended the idea that local communities should be able to dictate people’s clothes. For leftists “freedom” means expanding and protecting the rights of the people, while for them it literally just means “freedom to oppress others”.

      In his deposition, Owen Shroyer (Idiot who works for Alex Jones, calls himself “the cuck destroyer”, and also admitted under oath in same depo that he is a puppet) stated that he believes the first ammendment gives him the right to say whatever he wants “without consequences.”

      This shows a lack of understanding (or deliberate will to understand) that no action is without consequence. It could be a good consequence, or a bad one, but by simply taking an action you affect the world, large or small. They just want to be able to do what they want no matter what it does to others and suffer no backlash whatsoever, which screams rules for thee not for me.

      Or the freedom to choose whether to have expensive Healthcare or bankrupt yourself whenever you have a health emergency.

      It’s obviously not the freedom from health expenses.
