So I clicked on one of the embedded videos on a Facebook page supporting the truckers’ protest, and this young guy rambled on and on about how he fought in Afghanistan for our freedom … Um, don’t think so.
I was free before you went to Afghanistan. I had freedom of thought, freedom of expression, freedom of association, freedom of/from religion … I have the freedom to vote, to get an education, to get a driver’s licence, to open a bank account, to get a job, to own property, to get an abortion … And most of those freedoms were fought for, and won, by second-wave feminists. Not you.
I don’t know why you went to Afghanistan to kill a bunch of people, but it wasn’t for me.
