 @9L6367K from Texas answered…1mo1MO

Have a discussion and try to understand why they feel the way they do

 @9L8JLHBRepublican from Alabama agreed…1mo1MO

 @9L62QFT from Missouri answered…1mo1MO

As long as they are not harming me, themselves, or anyone else, they have the right to live the way they want to.

 @9L63ZZT from Texas agreed…1mo1MO

I believe that all people can choose to act in anyway on themselves as long as it does not harm or involve others.

 @ISIDEWITHasked…6mos6MO

Can a society truly uphold equal rights for all its members without some form of government intervention, and why do you think so?

 @9H4JHTW from New York answered…5mos5MO

I believe that liberalism has come a little too far especially in present days. Yes equality should be top tier but some ideology that has come up in present days and are praised by some people in schools. These new events that are being exposed to our children are opposites of the norm and we are accepting things that children shouldn't be introduced until they are mature.

 @9H4JFJ8 from Texas answered…5mos5MO

I believe that government intervention is necessary even if not ideal. There is not an ideal we can reach since humanity suffers with a lack of integrity. We are divided spiritually and ethically. The government in a democratic system was meant to represent the majority with the idea that the most people possible will benefit. Therefore, I would hope there would be intervention if necessary since they have structure and consistent rules. Without government intervention, we are at the whim of the changing passions and spiritual explorations of various groups.

 @9KHVTGM from Colorado answered…2mos2MO

No

If there is no government, then people will be hurting others and denying them their civil rights

 @9H46F8M from Texas answered…5mos5MO

No. Government invlovement needs to be present in order for change to occur within our constitutional laws.

 @ISIDEWITHasked…5mos5MO

How has travel or exposure to other cultures affected your view on liberalism and individual rights?

 @9HHKFR2answered…5mos5MO

I support liberalism, consent of the governed, and individual rights. Exposure to other cultures through History classes has taught me the importance of it.

 @9HHK59H from Alaska answered…5mos5MO

I agree with some aspects of liberalism such as equality before the law and liberty, but I prefer socialism and communism.

 @9KS9XQ3 from Washington commented…2mos2MO

I have a better understanding of different cultures and their practices and I seem to be more open-mined than those who don't expose themselves to other cultures so I ended up having a more liberal mindset

 @9HHK3NS from Arkansas answered…5mos5MO

I feel as if there are very few people in the world that wouldn't accept a bribery if the price is right, therefore I do not agree with Liberalism and the feeling of a group of people is what is controlling our society

 @ISIDEWITHasked…5mos5MO

In what way has a law or policy directly impacted your sense of freedom, for better or worse?

 @9HHMQC7 from Virginia answered…5mos5MO

Law or policy regarding Roe V Wade has made me feel less of a person. I feel like my own rights are being taken away and it is not up for discussion after decision has already been made.

  @Patriot-#1776Constitution from Washington commented…2mos2MO

I feel triumphant that Roe V. Wade was repealed – thousands of lives have been saved.

 @ISIDEWITHasked…6mos6MO

Should individual success be prioritized over collective well-being, or is there a middle ground?

  @VulcanMan6  from Kansas answered…6mos6MO

I would argue that, at a certain point, individual success is simply detrimental to collective well-being, and thus why individualist systems are anti-societal.

 @9H9J6LGIndependent from Virginia answered…5mos5MO

Individual success is useful and sometimes necessary to raise collective well-being

 @ISIDEWITHasked…4mos4MO

How would you explain the importance of freedom of speech to someone who doesn't value it?

 @9HY9R4Y from Wisconsin answered…4mos4MO

 @9HY8QCJ from Texas answered…4mos4MO

If we are only close minded to our own moral ideas and traditions, then there wouldn't be any form of free speech.

 @ISIDEWITHasked…4mos4MO

When making new friends or acquaintances, how important is it that they share your views on personal freedoms?

 @9HZDHB9 from Ohio answered…4mos4MO

i say to a certain extent they don't have to have all the same views as me

 @9HZDN7N from Maryland answered…4mos4MO

My friends political views are not important to me, so long as they are otherwise good people.

How might your day-to-day life change if there were more or fewer restrictions on personal behavior?

 @9HPGYNLanswered…4mos4MO

It is entirely in the individual's self-interest to cooperate.23 In sum, liberalism's ends are life and property,Because liberalism acknowledged the dignity of the common person, it tapped humanity's creativity, ingenuity and productive

 @9HPGYHX from Texas answered…4mos4MO

if there were a change in restrictions on personal behavior it would change a lot but i need more detail to give a better answer like what the restrictions are and if there are more or fewer. the question is too broad

 @ISIDEWITHasked…4mos4MO

In what ways do you believe education shapes a person's understanding of their own freedoms?

 @9J52YCSWomen’s Equality from Wyoming answered…4mos4MO

If people are more educated in this topic, then they can better understand their rights.

 @9J52XP4from Maine answered…4mos4MO

It is essential to shape our views because it works towards discovering truth rather than passing on ideologies.

 @ISIDEWITHasked…3mos3MO

How do you reconcile the desire for personal freedom with the need for environmental protection?

 @9JKTD4G  from Ohio answered…3mos3MO

I think that you could use your personal freedom rights and opinions to come up with ideas or convince citizens and the government to protect the environment, because if the environment ain't around then you ain't neither.

 @9JKSGBJ from Texas answered…3mos3MO

I think that having personal freedom is very important and as for the environment I as well think its important to keep up with the protection of our nature.
