It appears to me that there is a hypocrisy rampant among the USAmerican Right Wing that is so gargantuan that they cannot see it.
They froth at the mouth about "Freedom"
but they do not mean "freedom for everybody".
They demand absolute freedom for themselves. OK, I get it. That particular goal is understandable on its own. It has many major inherent problems, but as an ideology it is not implicitly malignant.

However they also demand the right to restrict the freedoms of others. They demand the power to take away any freedoms they want, from anyone else, anywhere, anytime.

This is such a fanatical abuse of power that it is abhorrent to any objective sense of reason and justice.

Apparently, the people who want to wield this power do not consider the possibility that they might perhaps not be worthy to do so. They just seem to assume that they deserve the right to deal out judgement and punishment however they deem fit at any moment. They want their own freedom, while at the same time they want to be able to control everyone/anyone else's freedoms and restrictions.
