NPCs: "Safety is more important than freedom"
Leftists: "Equality is more important than freedom"
Authoritarian Right (the ones I'm debating): "Honor is more important than freedom"
@xianc78 @beardalaxy mfw asimovs laws of robotics basically teach you that every authoritarian will lock everyone in to padded cells 'for their own good' and law zero is that none of the models ever work. 
@icedquinn @beardalaxy @xianc78 Freedom is a good not because it necessarily leads to good outcomes, but because it diversifies risk. If everyone is forced to do the same thing, and it turns out to be a disastrous bad idea, everyone has to bear the bad consequences. Freedom also protects the rights of individuals to choose to go against behaviors that might have those bad outcomes.
