Yes, that is an “actual argument” from a Brit on Twitter. Imagine the level of Stockholm Syndrome you must be suffering to believe that people who desire liberty must live like bushmen to achieve it.

If this person were alive in 1852 they would’ve accused slaves who desired their freedom of suffering from “drapetomania.”

The definition of “liberty” is: the state of being free within society from oppressive restrictions imposed by authority on one’s way of life, behavior, or political views.

To tell someone that the only way to achieve liberty is to move someplace remote, out of the community they were born into, is to admit that you are not free, and have embraced your chains.
