Nobody finds the both sidesing shit useful. We live in the heart of empire and the best you can do is say "but other place also bad sometimes"

Literally suck it up. There's no freedom anywhere. It's bullshit. Your body has stickers and stamps and rides rails and scales like any piece of fucking meat. Capitalism has subsumed the entire world, and it's fueled by sweat and greased by blood.

You've never felt freedom and most likely never will. Move onto a different topic like, "how do I not become a petty bourgeois prick who whines about some unrealized liberal notion of freedom while sopping up the blood from master's dribbling chin".
