Freedom means enabling the bad things too.

Which I think leads to two things. One is that maybe freedom isn't that good by itself. Second is that every system will have its flaws, and so, its abusers. And sometimes the system shouldn't be designed to be as abuse-free as possible. Sometimes that throws out the baby with the bathwater.

I kinda disagree here.

When you're addicted you aren't free as in freedom

You want to stop smoking, but you cant.

Thus smoking which leads to addiction isn't "freedom"
