Is freedom countable or uncountable?

The answer is simple - just look it up in a dictionary.

/does that make a dictionary a law?
/if yes,
/then who writes, publishes and promotes that law?



The question is political.



Freedom is always uncountable.

If there is a need to use it in an countable way,

then

replace it with right.



So,

the four "freedoms"

are

the four rights.

Independence begins with the "language" and the ideas it names.

Then are:

the state;

the markets;

he becomes (the new) Keyser S?ze.

I am sorry.




An Italian story, maybe, goes like this


The God and the Devil watch

how the peasant

collects/picks up/...  scattered around pieces of the Truth

one by one/piece by piece.

The God asks the Devil

"Doesn't it bother you that the peasant will finally find out the Truth?"

To which the Devil replies

"Don't worry, I'll help him put the pieces together."

Kint "quotes"/paraphrases Baudelaire

"The greatest trick the Devil ever pulled was convincing the world he didn't exist."

"The Devil's deepest wile

is

to persuade us

that

he does not exist."

Charles Baudelaire

- - -

One way to think about it is

that

the "Devil" has 2 meanings/sides:

 - person/"person";

 - error, mistake, mislead, ...



So, the Devil, as a "person",

convinces you

that

you make no mistakes, no errors, ...

that

everything

is

true and genuine.


//but so does the God
//two meanings
/ - person/"person"
/ - (you are/do) right, good deeds, ...



/in another words

/Socrates/Plato

/all over again

Space and time

are

part of the mind. (Kant)



Kant simply rocks.
