It's the battle for the good of the commons versus individual freedom. This attitude covers everything including the debate over climate change.
Humans progress through cooperation. They learned to survive via cooperation. Dialogue on this has been with us since ancient times with Gilgamesh and Enkidu. With Enkidu representing a pastoral point of view.
Humans won't survive unless we look at the freedom of the commons rather than individual freedom.

This retweet came out of frustration with people misusing Orwell and Foucault. They scrape the surface idea of obvious oppression without understanding the soul of the work and other aspects of history and philosophy both writers focus on.
I also think they are doing it from a selfish individualistic point of view, while ignoring the very real surveillance dangers and control via manipulation from a bunch of con artists who tell them what to hear.
