Unfortunately, there are a lot of people who just don't want to live in a society of freedom. They prefer the comfort of a State-controlled society, in which they remain children their whole lives, they don't have to make decisions for themselves, and they don't have to take responsibility for the consequences of their actions. Many prefer to live a life of infantilization as adults.
