Yes, my point is that using those as a measure of liberties is a particular definition of liberties that makes assumptions about what humans value most.
Not everyone values these — nor even liberties in general — and describing their lack as a “social illness” as you did originally universalizes them in a way that may not be warranted. I have no doubt that other cultures have these values — the point is that not all cultures do, and not everyone does even within cultures that do.
