We are talking about two different things here, freedoms and social structure.

Whether you believe it or not, you are free. You have all the freedoms in the world. The only thing that limits you is the idea that something limits you. And perhaps the laws of physics - gravity, physical obstacles etc.

Social structure is different. It's the idea that makes you feel enslaved, even though you physically can do just about anything. This would be taxes, laws, brands and trends.

My thoughts are: the modern social structure is flawed, sure. But that doesn't mean I'm a slave, or anything close to that. I feel free in the heart, mind, soul, and the body. Everything else just seems trivial.
