Esoterically and philosophically true liberty leads to societies where we can totally pursue our real interests and are giving the intellectual or psychical vehicles to do so. There will be an understanding that everyone does the best mentally, physically, and spiritually when they are forced into nothing at all. A true reversal from what we have now.
