People are used to what they grew up with. Taught from childhood that personal freedom to buy what they want and express their individuality through tropes is the ultimate expression of freedom. That's what our soldiers die for, right? The freedom to choose your denomination of Christianity or even (gasp!) denounce religion on social media. The freedom to listen to edgy music that mocks the current president. The freedom to dress up in a bikini and party in Florida. Could you do that in North Korea/Nazi Germany/the USSR? No sir, you could not. Obviously we are hella free.
