I interpret "nothing left to lose" as having nothing left that someone can take away from you which includes freedom. So to me, the state of having nothing left that can be taken away from me is
captivity.
Being left alone to do as I wish without impacting others or being impacted by others is freedom. And that freedom comes with no obligation.
To say that there is no such thing as freedom but only levels of obligation is incomprehensible to me.
