| Message | Oh, mangez de la merde. You somehow think that your point of view is the only right definition of liberty and that somehow restrictions on economic liberty are perfectly fine. In that way, restricting economic liberty does restrict social liberty sometimes. You and your fellow fascists and communists should realize that 'negative' liberty is liberty nonetheless. Despite the childish rhetoric and dogma of our EASL colleagues, we nevertheless vote for the articles promoting liberty, we'll immediately repair the damage to the economy after this has passed. Fuck off, you're no better than the fascists, nationalists or religious fanatics. - Samuel Trudeau MP Ville-Meriath |
