Por Emmi Bevensee. Título original: The Mutations of Freedom, del 24 de enero de 2018. Traducción al español por Vince Cerberus. “Libertad” y “libertad” son las declaraciones pesadas y empolvadas de académicos, patriotas fascistas y dogmáticos manipuladores; o al menos pueden sentirse de esa manera. Pero detrás de todo ese bagaje cultural hay algo que profundiza en nuestra…

“The individual is increasingly deprived of the moral decisions as to how he should live his own life, and instead is ruled, fed, clothed, and educated as a social unit, accommodated in the appropriate housing unit, and amused in accordance to the standards that give pleasure and satisfaction to the masses.” -C.G. Jung, Civilization In…

Di Meg Arnold. Originale pubblicato il 4 settembre 2016 con il titolo Responsibility and Freedom: A Defense of Safe Spaces. Traduzione di Enrico Sanna. “Libertà non significa solo che l’individuo può e deve scegliere, ma anche che deve prendere su di sé le conseguenze delle sue azioni, per cui può essere biasimato o elogiato.” ~…

“Freedom” and “liberty” are the stodgy, dust-covered utterances of academics, fascist patriots, and manipulative dogmatists; or at least they can feel that way. But behind all that cultural baggage is something that reaches deep into our experience and hopes and pulls out a fistful of primal energy and connectivity. This feeling is so intrinsic to…

A. Hayek, The Constitution of Liberty, Responsibility and Freedom What does it mean for speech to be free?…

To attribute to money a concept of bestowing freedom upon an individual owner may well exist as a theoretical possibility. Yet ownership is itself a contested concept. As is freedom. By bestowing freedom on the owner, it effectively prompts the dominance of certain types of power to come to the fore of monetary and economic…

It speaks volumes that the dirtiest word in the Republican and conservative lexicon is amnesty. At a minimum, it exposes as a flagrant lie the claim that Republicans and conservatives want to expand liberty and limit government power. One cannot consistently praise the principle, central to the supposedly beloved Declaration of Independence, that “all men…

…They [anarchists] spring from a single seed, no matter the flowering of their ideas. The seed is liberty. And that is all it is. It is not a socialist seed. It is not a capitalist seed. It is not a mystical seed. It is not a determinist seed. It is simply a statement. We can be…

Dalla costa marocchina, nove migranti guardano al di là del Mediterraneo, verso la Spagna. C’è la possibilità di guadagnarsi la libertà, di ritagliarsi una esistenza decente.

Mincy‘s “The Politics of Wilderness” read by Joey Clark and edited by Nick Ford. “Regarding the ANWR proposal, sit back and watch the depraved political theater unravel before your eyes.

Thaddeus Russell A Renegade History of the United States Free Press, 2010 For Thaddeus Russell freedom doesn’t come from a political system, a social order, a station in life or any other such institutionalized relationship. It is the practical ability I have to do what I want in my daily life. To the extent that such freedom exists, it…

The Obama administration is turning heads by proposing new protections for large portions of the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge.
