Restricted freedomS of society

We live in a country where we are "free". Yet our freedom has restrictions to it. I don't think we are free at all we are brainwashed in a society that chooses for you what is normal or not. Our minds are set in a way where we follow the crowd which in fact it would be nice to see someone go against the crowd and establish a newer scence of freedom. It is kind of strange knowing, that with out knowing it we do as we are told in this society that has many higher people in power than you. but what can we do. Not much just keep following.
