Ideas evolve. Regardless of what you want to achieve, acting superior to people who died centuries ago because you "know" what freedom is while they only knew the "illusion of freedom" is ridiculous.
As is pretending they were right. And again, I'm not discussing freedom. Never have been. Only consent, democracy, and taxation.
And we are back at my point about the evolution of ideas between the War of the Roses and the 1640s. Thanks for the diversion.
