Interesting thing to ponder: what really is personal freedom and liberty?

Are you free if you don't notice that you are not?

Erosion of liberty via incrementalism is exceedingly effective. "well that doesn't affect me because I don't do [whatever]" that is it's OK so long as I perceive it does not affect me. Objecting on principle will get you disinvited to a lot of parties. But eventually....

When incrementalism is too slow, exploit crisis. Create one if necessary.
