Some people say there's a difference between freedom and lawlessness. Is there really? If you think about it freedom doesn't actually exist in this world. We have limited freedom (I feel this is a oxymoron) but putting limits on freedom contradicts the definition of freedom don't you think? Let me see "Freedom - The power or right to act, speak, or think as one wants without hindrance or restraint." This by definition doesn't exist.

The true freedom is the one that everybody can do what they can to the point that nobody is disrespected. A good example that too much freedom causes problems is Brazil. In Brazil, people don't think about the others and they do what they can to make sure that the advantage is their, even if it means harming the others. Most brazilians think they don't need to respect anone becaus they have freedom. That's why the country is troublesome
Anyway, what I said, that's the real freedom.

Yes it is, anarchy is often viewed as bad, but it is the only true freedom.

Everyone is as free as they want to be. Anarchists simply want no legal system, meaning there are no third party entities to enforce law, regulate; etc.

But really, you can do absolutely anything you want. It's just that there will be consequences based on where you live and what laws the place you live are subject to.

I believe that actual Freedom doesn't exist in this World. The only moment you are free is when you die. You are like a bird in a cage. When you die, it's like the bird being released. :scorps:

Your free to do whatever you want short term until something you do breaks laws set by other people. I'm talking about long term 0 interference freedom.

people tend to take the word anarchy out of context, it doesn't mean lawlessness, it just means that the people have full responsibility for themselves.

That's not really freedom though is it? You're either bound by a set of legal or moral codes, or live in fear of being killed or be the one doing the killing. Doesn't really sound like freedom to be unless you're doing the killing. But you in turn would have to live in fear. It would be a vicious and never ending cycle of fear and hatred. Not true freedom

I didn't say it was safer but that is what freedom truly is. Limited freedom is the safer choice for society. Also if your bound by anything you can't possibly be free.

In this world you are free to do as the government tells you. God forbid someone figures out there is no wrong or right just different ideologies. Then the government couldn't control us.
