Autonomy is not "given."
It is when you're still so deep inside the system mentally that you require products to facilitate your lifestyle. If you want to know how to be free without relying upon society to grant you that privilege, you should look into this cool guy from Roman times named Jesus.
Look I never do this, but... 🤮
And seriously... if you're trying to be a "good Christian witness"... this is not the way.
Not even really Christian, but he still provides a great example of what it actually means to live in this world. Too many people want freedom, but don't want to give up the luxuries that others provide for them. Frankly a lot of Christians don't get that part of the message either.
Yeah, Jesus would send you lot straight to hell.
