Many people have taken "freedom" to mean "I can say/do whatever the fuck I want to anyone without any consequences"

so... yeah, probably

If you don't want to be run over by my car, then get off the sidewalk. I have freedoms in this goddamn country.

It's easier to get society back on track if it swings to anarchy than if you have a government overlord. Check any epilogue to any movie with that theme vs the other

people should have the freedom to do whatever they want... until it interferes with someone else's freedom to do what they want. it's that second part that seems to get conveniently forgotten these days.

There seems to be a strange new wave of libertarians that haven't even heard the term before.

I don't believe in belts. There should be no ranking system for toughness.

Yeah its going to peoples heads. It used to be I trusted the majority of my fellow countrymen to do the right thing.

But Trump + Covid destroyed that thought. I was just naive. I have genuinely lost faith in my people.

The obsession with personal freedoms in the short to immediate term is some pretty serious brain worms at work. The concept of a greater society just doesnt exist to these people.

They take the core concepts of being a libertarian and run with it but refuse to call themselves libertarian because they're unfamiliar with it.

It's the biggest double edged sword in American culture

That obsession with liberty deeply ingrained by American mythology got us people taking up arms against coal companies and dying for workers rights, but it also got us anti vaxxers and covid deniers

America is just a wild roller coaster through and through
