one of myb avorite ideas, the freedom FROM things bieng paired with the freedom to do things, speach, religion, guns, and everything for everybody sometimes..... hard to imagine a world built on minding one's own business.... I have imagined spaces like national parks, except some varios themes like, where no one is allowed inside unless they are armed to the teath and driving something that runs on nitro methane, and doesn't idle so good, twitchy...everything inside is self serve and I am not kidding, or I think suggesting something that is unreasonable, many many people desperatly want some kind of mad max unhinged reality, and do make things difficult for everyone else. And then other zones, for education and the arts, entertainment, and sports......no cars...no guns... But basicly that people are facilitated by government, to get on with the things they want in life, and accept , that there are a lot of people who are treating wildly dangerous and self destructive activities as normal...normal to the point that they can articulate how going into convusions from a crack overdose, is actualy the fine line they are seeking, and others like flowers and poetry, but cant quite articulate why. freedom to freedom from

no, it's just a minor modification of what we are actualy doing, and it's a suggestion that we accept humanity as it is, and stop trying to export our contradictions the statistics are clear, we have lost our way, life span is falling, inequity is becoming stark, etc the question is ,can actualy comunicate about what is happening? or not I know the answer is, no, we cant comunicate and that there is a widespead notion that bieng exposed to anything that even makes ....some... uncomfortable....must be banned.,,..or something like that....more permanent.....and secure.... to which, I wish good luck with that.....

TL;DR you are basically just asking for a real version of "The Purge", while neglecting the inherent inequalities between those with resources and those without, and you contradict yourself later making this post of yours entirely incoherent, and a waste of time reading.

Thoughts unshackled from objective reality trend towards delusion. People haven't survived by ignoring the reality of things.
