In fact, with the merger of the Internet and the corporate state, unless you are alert and aware, it will be increasingly difficult to discern the difference between freedom and enslavement. With the methods of mind manipulation available to the corporate state, the very nature of democratic government has been changed.

Terminy (mental/psychologial) enslavement/slavery są używane w tym kontekście. Nie widzę powodu aby od nich odchodzić i zastępować je synonimami. Użycie innych terminów może być mylące dla osób zajmujących się tym tematem. Istnieje literatura i publikacje na temat zniewolenia, w odróżnieniu od służalczości, spolegliwości czy uległości.

Reference: Wolność a zniewolenie pedagogiczne zagadnienie wolności.

Reference information:
Człowiek wolny w ujęciu św. Tomasza z Akwinu

Określenie wolności nie jest sformułowane w pismach św. Tomasza w postaci jednoznacznej definicji. Trzeba go wydobywać z różnych tekstów napisanych przez Doktora Powszechnego. Najwyraźniej podejmuje to zagadnienie w Kompendium Teologii oraz w Komentarzu do Metafizyki Arystotelesa. Czyniąc punktem wyjścia wyjaśnień Akwinaty podane teksty, trzeba je przytoczyć.
W Kompendium Teologii czytamy odpowiedź na pytanie, co to znaczy być wolnym. Otóż „wolnym nazywamy tego, kto jest przyczyną swoich działań” - http://psychoterapeuci-katolicy.pl/czytelnia/duchowosc/filoz...

--

COMPENDIUM THEOLOGIAE

COMPENDIUM OF THEOLOGY by Thomas Aquinas - http://dhspriory.org/thomas/Compendium.htm

-------

Warto wcześniej przytoczyć też fragment z komentarza św. Tomasza do Metafizyki Arystotelesa. Tekst odnosi do wolności tej dyscypliny naukowej, ale w treści jest o tym, co napisane w Kompendium.

„… Mówi się, że ten człowiek właściwie jest wolny, który nie wykonuje wyroków powodowanych przez innych, lecz rozsądza, jakie powoduje skutki. Słudzy należą do panów i postępują według panów i pozyskują im to, co pozyskują. Wolni ludzie, sami przyczynują swoje czynności, sobie pozyskując i czyniąc. Jedynie ta zatem nauka jest nauką ze względu na samą siebie (chodzi o filozofię): a więc sama jest wolna pośród innych nauk. …”⁶ - http://psychoterapeuci-katolicy.pl/czytelnia/duchowosc/filoz...

---------

58. But just as (29).

Deinde cum dicit sed ut dicimus hic probat secundum, scilicet quod ipsa sit libera; et utitur tali ratione. Ille homo proprie dicitur liber, qui non est alterius causa, sed est causa suiipsius. Servi enim dominorum sunt, et propter dominos operantur, et eis acquirunt quicquid acquirunt. Liberi autem homines sunt suiipsorum, utpote sibi acquirentes et operantes. Sola autem haec scientia est propter seipsam: ergo ipsa sola est libera inter scientias.

Here he proves the second attribute, namely, that wisdom is free; and he uses the following argument: that man is properly said to be free who does not exist for someone else but for himself. For slaves exist for their masters, work for them, and acquire for them whatever they acquire. But free men exist for themselves inasmuch as they acquire things for themselves and work for themselves. But only this science exists for itself; and therefore among all the sciences only this science is free.
