Freedom or not, we choose ourselves. So basically we are free, to make this choice.
Socially, freedom of others is not always appreciated. But existentially we should at least know the options.
The principle is that we do something, and this something does us. Sounds strange?
It is simple. Like this. We do something, say a child. This child makes us into something, which is parents.
Or if we take a negative example: someone steals something. The theft turns the person into something: a thief.
There is a giant jump. Becoming a parent is a big thing. Becoming a thief also seems to be a big thing.
If we want freedom, we should do things which reflects back to us as freedom.
If we give freedom to others, we get freedom in return.
Can we always give freedom? No not always on the external level. We might have to follow strict rules.
But internally, in our mind, in our intentions, we are free to do whatever we want. Some of us use this freedom to say bad words. That is not good. It does not give freedom.
