>I think the peace of mind that you and everyone you'll ever know will never get disappeared into someone's rape dungeon doesn't seem so bad.
Unfortunately total government control means that you'd always be at the risk of being disappeared into the government's rape dungeon.
>universal bill of rights for living entities?
Who decides what's in that universal bill of rights? What happens to those who inevitably disagree with whats in that bill?
>Just also don't do stupid shit like control the expression of two consenting persons just because what they're doing is not your cup of tea. Is this really so hard to differentiate between?
Yes, unfortunately it is. Many, if not most people (and virtually every government), on the planet earth not only have no problem controlling the expression of two consenting persons, they are happy to do so with the threat of force. Who decides what a government with absolute power should or shouldn't do. Is it you? Is it the mullah in Pakistan? Is it the point heads in Washington DC?
>Sure, freedom is about being able to do what you want with your life, but it also means being able to do it safely, without the fear of getting pwned.
No, that's the opposite of freedom. In a free society, you have a risk of getting pwned. In a Totalintarian society (like the one you describe), your lack of freedom makes you pwned by definition. In a free society, people are free to make bad choices. Any sort of society that is oppressive enough to preemptively prevent behavior must have total control over all behavior - the very antithesis of freedom.
