There are a lot of people, young folk especially, who want to find a cause to stand behind. I want to tell you, now more than ever, freedom is the most radical stance you can take - and it needs you.
Freedom is the idea that you are beholden to no one and that you can do whatever you like so long as it does not impinge on your neighbour; particularly their life, liberty, and property. It's the freedom to make mistakes and learn from your mistakes. It's the freedom to take risks. It's the freedom to fail, and the freedom to succeed. It's the freedom to claim as yours decisions that affect your life. It requires, though, that freedom loving people fight ideas, and unfortunately sometimes the physical manifestations of ideas, that would enslave us. And that is radical, and noble.
