I don’t think you’re pro-slavery, but I do think you picked a metaphor not for the light it sheds on the issue, but the heat—and then preemptively dismissed a strawman objection to it instead of, say, improving your own communication.
The parenthesis was an edit that I put after receiving downvotes.
I think the comparison is correct, in that who claims copyleft licenses are less free only considers their own freedom, not that of the society as a whole.
And it seemed a good example since most people will have heard of that, if not studied it in school at the very least.
