Relieving people of the burden of FREEDOM

in order to make them feel SAFE is a recurring theme in the history of authoritarianism.

Get out and live life. Do not live in fear. Reject people who want to manipulate you with fear.

Fear is tool for control and I'm beginning to think some people love being controlled by fear.

Many love the idea of living in fear. Currently a post on the thread about don't believe a story because it comes from a "rag" that advertises guns. OOOOOOOOOOOOOO those guns so scary let me stick my head up my a**!

@curiosi I don't think they love the fear. They love comfort and shelter and the absence of risk... which is the point of the first video. Liberty is enjoyed by brave people who are willing to take risks to attain it.

But now it's DENIALISM that makes democracy impossible.
Sorry, but you're not ready for democracy.

@Stopmakingsense Senseless. No reality is being denied. Democracy is sustained only when it is coupled with liberty. Democratic subjection of masses is nazism.

@KYLakeDiver whatever! Make it up as you go! Political science isn't really real.
