It seems that we are talking about different topics. I was discussing individual freedom, while you are addressing collective freedom, which I believe fundamentally relies on free individuals

Not sure. Shouldn‘t this scale somewhat along people per square meter?

The collective word is `liberty` and it's granted to a group by an authority. `Freedom` is taken by individuals, so it is a property of individuals by definition. Free individuals tend to pressure authorities to grant greater liberties to groups of people. We owe our liberties to such free individuals. #soveng

Right responsibility.. 🤣 I'm not sure if you ever used Bitcoin, but having the ability to make irreversible transactions without asking anyone for permission is very powerful. However, no one can help you if you mess up by sending the money to a random address for instance. Hence, you have a lot of responsibility when you have the freedom to do whatever you want with your money..

I'm not sure how power and freedom are connected. Maybe @Gzuuus or @Gigi have an answer...

I think what I meant was not liberty but distributed freedom. Something like „justice“ or „fairness“. Levelled-out freedom. That‘s not „liberty“, right?
