Rachael Ava 💁🏻‍♀️<p>There are far more restrictions on what people can do compared to the amount of freedoms that people have, so much so that it might be comparably equal to other first world countries.</p><p>And now, under Trump's rule, more freedoms and rights are being further restricted and even rolled back, to the detriment of us, the people that help make America what it is.</p><p>We must fight for our freedoms, regardless of what country we live in, because we the people don't want freedom, we NEED freedom, it is a baseline requirement for life itself.</p><p><a href="https://tech.lgbt/tags/UnitedStates" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>UnitedStates</span></a> <a href="https://tech.lgbt/tags/US" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>US</span></a> <a href="https://tech.lgbt/tags/USPol" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>USPol</span></a> <a href="https://tech.lgbt/tags/USHistory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>USHistory</span></a> <a href="https://tech.lgbt/tags/History" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>History</span></a> <a href="https://tech.lgbt/tags/LandOfTheFree" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>LandOfTheFree</span></a> <a href="https://tech.lgbt/tags/Freedom" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Freedom</span></a> <a href="https://tech.lgbt/tags/Trump" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Trump</span></a></p>
Rachael Ava 💁🏻‍♀️<p>The United States once upon a time was the land of the free; but that land of the free that existed once upon a time, no longer exists.</p><p>I do not know when exactly it no longer existed. I'm not a historian, but it could range from decades to at least a century ago.</p><p>The freedoms we have in recent years are unrecognizably restricted compared to the freedoms from what history has taught us.</p><p>Yes, we had made some major advancements that give more people rights, such as women, people of color, etc., and yet, we have lost so many freedoms in other ways.</p><p><a href="https://tech.lgbt/tags/UnitedStates" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>UnitedStates</span></a> <a href="https://tech.lgbt/tags/US" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>US</span></a> <a href="https://tech.lgbt/tags/USPol" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>USPol</span></a> <a href="https://tech.lgbt/tags/USHistory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>USHistory</span></a> <a href="https://tech.lgbt/tags/History" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>History</span></a> <a href="https://tech.lgbt/tags/LandOfTheFree" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>LandOfTheFree</span></a> <a href="https://tech.lgbt/tags/Freedom" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Freedom</span></a></p>
