Many here will say that that's the cost of the freedom of choice and speech in the US.

And yet we have ICE and the FBI harassing “dissidents” every day, medical choices dictated by insurance companies, and on and on. They’ve been sold a bill of goods and just haven’t realized it yet, IMO.

It's from a fictional drama (The Newsroom) but this a great riposte to "freedom in the US".

    You're going to say that we're the only ones in the world that has freedom?
    Canada has freedom, Japan has freedom, the UK, France, Italy, Germany, Spain, Australia, Belgium has freedom.
