Freedom isn’t a virtue.
It’s a means to an end and I know everyone here doesn’t believe in total freedom—unless you’re cool with murder and rape and theft?
Glad to see someone point this out. Usually this goes unsaid and everyone just, sorry to say it, bleats along in agreement at the notion of freedom being the greatest thing to exist.
Also, all laws exist to legislate morality. All of them. So unless anyone here supports total anarchy with zero government of any kind, freedom is not the ultimate goal nor is it "the greater good".
The greater good is a just and righteous society. This necessarily involves hampering freedom, but also protecting freedom.
Those are such broad terms they can be used for everything. Your average covid believer thinks it is just and righteous to vaccinate yourself with hell knows what they designed and produced in one year, as you are righteously protecting others.
If freedom is a means to an end, you basically have social-democratic-whatever hell where stuff is allowed if it makes State/Gov richer or more powerful.
Except objective reality shows us that the COVID vaccine is complete bullshit.
So it doesn't really mesh the way you say. Sure, the COVID crazies can apply the terms to that topic, but they're simply wrong.
Saying something is just and righteous doesn't make it just and righteous. Just like calling something freedom doesn't make it freedom (i.e. freedom to infringe on other people's rights).
And freedom has to be a mean to an end. If it's the end, it will always result in social decay and societal collapse, since society operates on the rule of law, and not freedom.
You know this, I know this. However, unless you go pure math, objective reality can be hard to observe or not even exist. From PoV of your average covidiot, the objective reality was that we are dealing with an ebola level outbreak, as they were told that by the mainstream. So, if it is OK to throw away freedom for noble causes, it is OK to do so now. No higher principle.
Yes, it would be nice to know when you can intervene and when not; however, apart for reasons like stated above you'd need a crystal ball to predict what will the outcome be, was it ever worth the price. Also, do this a few times and nobody will even bother with freedom anymore, as precedent has been set.
Nobody is arguing you should be free to break neighbour's windows because you are free. That's the argument of the left, and why you can do less and less shit, all for noble causes.
I feel that for last couple for decades, freedom didn't have the best press. Actually, people insisted on being the smarter, righteous and other nice sounding adjectives, freedom was for rednecks or other local slur.
How's the social decay going?
