Liberal paradox - Wikipedia - Discuss Online
Frequently seen in the sentiment “everyone should be free to do whatever they
want” and the part they don’t say out loud is “except form a collective that
limits the freedoms of people”. It also follows from the sentiment “there should
be no borders” (as that necessarily sets the demand that everyone should agree
with you to not have borders) The paradox is that to maintain a “free” society,
the system must eventually coerce those who do not consent to being “free” in
the way the system defines it. (Also anticipating the harm reduction principle
as a protest: who gets to define what is “harmful” and why should everyone
agree? It just kicks the can down the road.)

A lot of people know what to think. Much fewer people know how to think.
