Fareed Zakaria👍 Recommends
…discussion of freedom and autonomy as core liberal values and aspirations
“And if you do that, I think if you offer people the alternative between a right that says at base, we are trying to deprive you of that choice, that autonomy, that freedom, and the left which celebrates those things, but in all spheres, like economic, political, social, I think that's a winning message, it's a forward looking message, it's a message that actually will appeal to young people, the writer Eric Fromm, wrote a book called Escape from Freedom, and he says the real meaning of life is that you get to live it, and what he means is that you, you know, that is the only meaning of life, that you get to live it as you want, and that's a very powerful message I think at heart.”
