Snyder On Freedom

By Leo Gura - February 8, 2025

Tim Snyder has a great view of our political situation:

Although, I must add a warning. Snyder does not really understand what freedom is in an existential sense. The entire point of government is that humans do not and cannot like freedom. Freedom is not good for you. Freedom is bad for you. This fetishization of freedom comes from a misunderstanding of what freedom is on an existential level, and when you get freedom so wrong you will end up living under a corrupt and unjust government.

But Snyder’s perspective is still good to consider. Not every perspective needs to be existential.
