Am I free?

Am I free?
This has nothing to do with Evony or the forums.
I'm not a slave.
I just saw Skirata and Conrad talking in the Announcement thread.
There are limitations controlling me and what I may do or say. Whether they be laws passed by a government or norms set in stone by society, I cannot just act and preach as I please.
And I'm loopy and haven't slept lately.
I was not born with inherent freedoms, I am only granted acceptable ones. Someone or some organization has written out what I may do and what I may not. Were I truly free, I would not have such limitations placed on my back. They say I'm free to vote, but limit my choices. They say I'm free to travel, but monitor my movements. They say I'm free to purchase what I please, but offer only 1 product packaged under different labels.
Skirata is prolly the only person who will read these words.
How can you say that you are free? You are only blind to the walls and boundaries keeping you trapped.

But mainly to draw Skirata and Conrad out of the General Announcements.

Yes but there is a limit to freedom. Not just because it is the OT, you can post whatever you want (which is not true), it has rules you know instead of flaming everything and everyone you come across.

Hello.

There was once a thread discussion regarding human nature. I can recreate the particular thread and repost my philosophical essay on the topic of human baseness and vulgarity if anyone desires to engage in a relaxed and non-formal philosophical, ethical and social discussion.

This thread isn't about the OT, WN1. Chill. Conrad is around. I like him.

But it is in the OT and it is off topic.

Can't you just tell us about Scipio Africanus or Marcus Cicero, or any other Roman "Famous guy"
