It's more of a historical thing. People used to immigrate to America to escape things like religious or ethnic persecution or start new lives thanks to the Homestead Acts.
Shut the fuck up you dumb retard
"Freedom" historically refers to being free from a government you deem tyrannical or unfair. The original meanings of freedom and liberty strictly refer to those won at the end of the revolution. The bill of rights and the amendments embody American freedom. The issue is as the world has developed and many nations have become as "free" like the US, more so in some places and less so in others. Point is, the cry of freedom in America as being special is becoming less and less relevant. Especially now with things like government surveillance.

Well they think that being morbidly obese is fine, so having the freedom to weigh as much as your car must be fantastic
haha monkey goes ook
None of what he wrote was incorrect, even though he's american
Memes aside its literally the only country in the world with true free speech.
In countries with "free speech" the government gives you legal rights to speech but they can take it away or change it whenever they want. In america the government protects your inalienable right to free speech.
I'd also add that we're free to be as social or anti social as we'd like. I notice that other countries have a general level of behavior that they need to adhere to and here you can do whatever the hell you want, be as sane or as crazy as you want to be.
Why are all my tinder matches always Canadian girls?

>Höhöhö i secks ur wimen
There are many ways to counter people, this was not one of them
I live on the border.
Next time a Canadian hurts your feelings. Use *pic related* on him. You're welcome, bro. Although use this only in necessary situations since Anglo-Canadians are one of the most based posters in this planet
Because they are fat and dumb
they unironically think they have more freedom than me because some 12yo brit wasnt allowed to buy teaspoons or some autist got a police visit for making rape threats on twitter
Okay, schizo.
way of coping
brazilian education at work i see...
they think if they repeat it enough, someday they will actually believe it!
Propaganda that is fed through school and reinforced through the media and their own culture leading to an entire nation of moronic manchildren
>they unironically think they have more freedom than me because they have more freedom than me
because they told yuropoors to fuck off, i hope poland does the same
>Freedom to fear being assaulted/killed by a police officer who will still be defended by people online
>Freedom to die if you can't afford healthcare, or medication
>Freedom to have to own a car to go anywhere
>Freedom to go to prison for growing/smoking/possessing a literal plant
>Freedom to not drink until 21
>Freedom to get gouged on college education
>Freedom to have to register, so you can be drafted if there's a war
But it's totally worth it to get to own guns, and say rude things on the internet, right?
I think you might possibly be the sanest, mosts pleasant canucks I've ever seen on Yas Forums

Leafland isn't much better. America's holding us back. At least we don't get cucked by (((healthcare executives))) like Americans
I agree, but Canada also never claimed to be the "Land of the Free"
