If the all so wonderful folks in charge of Western Civ can't protect freedom by establishing that purpose in law, so that freedom itself doesn't depend on the number of detractors, there's little to be admired in that system.

Oh yes. Just let the "Wester Civ" take care of you. Don't expect to have to do your part.

If they've not taken care of freedom by establishing essential protections that can't be infringed upon, regardless of the number of those that insist on destroying that condition, then it's not taking any care of me at all.

"Don't expect to have to do your part."

I'll repeat. The purpose of giving the gift of life is not to provide you, or anyone else with allies.

" "Ask not what you can do for your civilization""

Civilization is the condition of freedom. There is no civility in anything else. "Ask not what you can do for your civilization""
