Hey everyone..
i have a question for all of you outside of the states..
i'm watching my company's independence day celebration via our live stream.. and it's making me think..
do you feel free?... do you have freedom?... it always feels like a lot of patriotic Americans / United Staters ;) have this idea.. that in other countries you can't do what you like.. that the freedom we have here is unparalelled..
however.. i'm unsure of the differences .. could you please tell me in some ways how you are not as free as i am? because i'm just not seeing it anymore..quote from the video stream "our freedom is very prescious to me.. we've worked hard for it and we may lose it at any moment if we do not continue to fight for it" (not talking about war.. just in general)
what is this freedom he speaks of? feels like i can do just about the same thing anyone in europe or other countries can do as well..
lemme know cause i'm concerned of this.. thanks

its a myth, your entrapped by mind control from birth, you are owned by the capitalist structure, everything you see around you is there to serve it.

as long as there is government and a police force, then there is no such thing as freedom

when the color goes above yellow i guess i'm supposed to be scared and lose some of my everyday freedoms. but i do feel safer.
*end sarcasm
pretty much i'm free to do whatever, say whatever and think whatever i want as long as it falls within the governments guidelines.

glad to see everyone agrees with me here.. there ain't nothing goin on here that's any more free than anyone else.. if not less free..
i agree.. capitalism forces ways upon you....
the thing i hate getting most is (well if you don't like it .. that's why we are a free nation.. and you are free to leave the country.. that's your freedom)
give as the only option to something.. (mostly down south billies who can't read the back of their milwaukee's best(shite beer) can..
i wanna go downstairs right now into the auditorium where they are holding this thing.. and ask a few questions ;)
"scuse me..what makes us any more free than any country in europe?.. what abou t Japan? they free?"
ah well
i'll be moving outta this country within the next few years.. any body have suggestions as to where i should go?.. i really wanted to try the smurf soda in denmark... wait.. is it denmark that has it?

freedom is not having two political parties that pretend to be of opposite viewpoints, but really support the same political agendas, because they are financed by the same interested parties within the corporate bloc that really runs said country.
