I'll read this later. But I'll just say that I was thinking of negative freedom (I think).
Economic liberty is something I am curious about, also.
>In quantum physics, there is the concept of quantum entanglement: two particles can be entangled and remain linked, even if they are later separated by great distance. Einstein was famously uncomfortable with this idea, calling it “spooky action at a distance.”
Not true, he used "spooky action at a distance" to refer to something else IIRC.

>Putin was trolling about the Nazis
So we have powerful politicians capable of great violence trolling about the justifications for that violence? Fucking great.
I was part of a "home education group" as a child and there was one family there who were Catholic and educated their kids in their religion (creationism and everything probably). Is that what you're talking about? Because they seem to have turned out alright too.

@admitsWrongIfProven I was homeschooled before secondary school and I turned out fine.
“The police were knocking at the door, and one day they took the children to school, and the children were crying because the policemen took the schoolbags by force,” Uwe Romeike told Deutsche Welle in 2009.
The family also faced “fines eventually totaling over $11,000” and “threats that they would lose custody of their children,” according to The New York Times.
The Romeikes had run afoul of schulpflicht, Germany’s legal duty to send children to state-approved schools. The intent, explains the country’s Federal Constitutional Court, is to prevent “the emergence of religious or ideologically motivated ‘parallel societies’” that disagree with prevailing ideas.
(Bold emphasis mine; but I don’t speak German so I can’t judge whether Reason’s interpretation of the law is accurate)
If this isn’t authoritarian to you then I don’t know what to say.
