What do you hear when people say freedom?

"there are different kinds of agency. Political (or historical) agency is not always open to everyone"

yes: but i'm talking about a very specific, and real, thing when i refer to 'agency'

that is: agency = the agent

the capacity for self-deliberation, self-determination, choice is integral to the individual...in fact: that capacity is synonymous with the individual

political/historical agency is another topic completely, one in keeping with that great, sometimes useful, fiction 'liberty/freedom'...
