Reply to comment by ecksate in Two Concepts of Freedom (Actual Freedom and Conscious Freedom) by contractualist

Neither of these is negative freedom, though. They’re both positive freedom concepts lol

To me it describes willingly conforming to negative freedom. The freedom where you only act within a set of constraining social norms telling you what not to do. It's just explained from a different angle. It's literally though shalt not because of social norms, except you're sooo happy and consciously free because you're not exhibiting full positive freedom beyond social norms.
