Two Kinds of Freedom

I think there's a point here, though I have to say I've been finding a lot to question in Haskin these days. His point is that "Only one kind successfully gives us experiences of being free. The other kind is like an attractive bait that tempts us with the promise of freedom which is never delivered" where "Authentic freedom is found within situations" (including constraints and limitations) while "Pseudo freedom is sought after by escaping from situations' such as "acts of defiance, rebellion, or retaliation." I would rather say it this way (probably changing Haskins's meaning): freedom is proactive, pseudo-freedom is reactive.
