A thing that really annoys me is how the right has seized the term economic freedom, defined it as the ability of the bourgeoisie to hoard as much wealth and possible and use it in their propaganda as if that narrow special interest is at par with fundamental personal and political freedoms.
I would like the left to claim it back. Being economically free should mean that you control the product of your own labour, that you have access to the economic means of a full and dignified existence, that you have access to free healthcare and that you are not at risk of poverty.
Ah, if only mormons and all those kind of weirdos weren’t misogynistic cults. They really build strong independent communities. They aren’t cool people, but they have a strong sense of community.
