That's better defined as power. Freedom to me is the ability NOT
to do something.

Reminds of something someone once said: "Perhaps freedom is just
another word for no one left to screw?".

90s and I are not the same person....

Who do you think I was addressing when I made the first post
about one-man governments? You know how AS is. He thrives on
ignoring people who ask him questions.

I disagree that AS thrives on ignoring people. From what I've
witnessed he only ignores people who contribute nothing and only
ask questions they could find the answers to easily
themselves....

Why are you mocking me? I don't know any of this stuff, and you
people like to twist information to suit your ideology. For
instance, Reps. Omar and Tlaib, whom you admire, both made
tweets wishing the Jewish community a happy Hanukkah last year.
Why aren't they in the 'Enemies' board?

Please explain how this is a "twist" of information to suit our
ideology?

Both representatives criticize Israel, yet you don't put them in
the 'Enemies' category when they made the aforesaid Hanukkah
tweets.

Doing dumb stuff doesn't necessarily warrant a spot in the
enemies category does it? Should we also put everyone with
terrible reading comprehension in the enemies category as well,
because if we did you would have been in it a long time ago!

You slander me by insulting my literacy, yet you criticize
Westerners for their obsession over intelligence. You're a
hypocrite.

Mushroom canoe? That’s a fungi idea

fibrous roots of the mushroom that are typically found beneath
soil which are also dense, buoyant and waterproof.

every time it is used it sprouts fresh mushrooms.

Mini rant, but I hate when people say “They deserved to get
scammed because they were stupid enough to fall for it” or, put
more gently, “People who fall for scams deserve it” (which still
implies that intelligence in and of itself is valued while
people who lack it are inherently less valuable). SO many people
have this kind of attitude, even self proclaimed liberals and
leftists to an extent. Does it not occur to them that nobody
chooses to be “stupid enough to fall for a scam”? Why would they
want that to happen to themselves? If they’re simply referring
to people who are unmindful, a lack of mindfulness is still FAR
less of an offense than scamming. And even if them falling for a
scam is exactly because of their level of intelligence, why does
that mean they deserve bad things to happen to them for an
attribute they can’t control? Once again, it’s victim blaming,
and it also an implicit condoning of scammers
