    Yeah, me too, I used the phrase ironically. A nation without universal healthcare has no business calling itself free to begin with, not to mention the entire prison industrial complex, abortion bans, and so on

      I got that, but historically, it’s been used anything but ironically by the news media, and it’s always irked me.
