All people who don’t think they should run other people’s lives deserve freedom. Those who think they but not others should be free do not deserve freedom. (Where does that put me?)
The greatest abuse of freedom is to think that someone else should not be free, and then to infringe on that freedom, to commit a crime of aggression against another.
The question is fundamental, the answers are the foundations for the various philosophy of human life. Even the nature of the concept given the name “freedom” is foundational, and has divided philosophies and attitudes for at least 3,000 years. There is no answer, merely foundational decisions.
Christ taught that all men should be equal and free. Plato taught that some should be slaves, in fact he taught that slavery was the true freedom for those meant by nature to be slaves. According to Plato, some tribes were meant to rule and other tribes were meant to be ruled.
When Jefferson wrote “we hold these truths to be self-evident” he was stating the fundamental axioms universally held by the founders of the United States. Those who agreed signed the Declaration; those who disagreed did not sign. There has been no time when everyone in all societies considered those truths to be self-evident, but there have always been a few. The idea probably will never catch on, the revolt against freedom seems perpetual and distressingly successful to those who consider those truths to be self-evident axioms.
Abuse of freedom is a matter of judgement; crimes of violence against others are not. Even if those truths are held to be self-evident, infringement or even forfeiture of freedom may be just punishment for crimes against others. But not for abuse of freedom.
