The pokes at communist take overs aside, the cultural differences are obviously huge barrier to overcome which I think almost outweighs the “freedom” part

Ie. in Japan you look like the biggest asshole if you’re not wearing a mask where as here I was just in Safeway and there are a bunch of people not wearing masks, talking to one another, etc. It’s not that they are into dat FrEeDoM! But there’s no social accountability in western society.

People don’t need the govt. to tell them things when public pressure forces you to do the right thing
