I don't understand why it's so hard for y'all to agree with me. I know it's fun to contradict me--but I'm pretty sure it goes beyond that. IMHO, y'all are really brainwashed :\; Big Brother has y'all.

I mean, think about it. All the positions that I take are for (my own and everyone else's) freedom, and you guys consistently oppose them. There's no reason to oppose them, since even if they won't benefit you (and they will), they certainly won't hurt you--whereas what I am fighting against certainly does directly and physically hurt me.

Your sort of "freedom" is really restricted.   That's the problem that you don't seem to realize.

Not only do I not know what that means, but I don't have any idea what that has to do with the discussion. About the violent restriction of the freedom in my personal life to copy (or not) as I personally see fit. (This is real and violent oppression because they can effectively break into anyone's house, seize anyone's property, perhaps even cage people, all to stop allegedly free individuals from freely associating with one another.)

Why are you even hesitating to "grant" me my freedom?

It's relevant.   Just because you don't want to admit it, doesn't mean that it isn't.

Oh, and because it affects everyone else'.

How is arguing for more freedom in MY personal life restricting my freedom?

And how does freeing my PERSONAL life affect other people's freedoms?

You are a very confused person :|.
