I think we're on the same line of thought..

All I'm saying is, There's Freedom, and there's Tyranny..
I want all the Freedom I can get..
If I'm being tyrannized, it matters little to me if it's a commie or a nazi..
They are both doing the same thing to me..
Taking away my Freedom..

Aye, there's the rub. How do you define freedom? Communists define it as a completely egalitarian society. Libertarians define it as anything goes as long as I have my property rights. The place where the rubber really meets the road is not freedom versus tyranny, but a free society versus a good society. They may well overlap, but they are not the same thing.
