This reminds me so much of this infamous west german thought-terminating
cliché to counter any kind of criticism towards the free (as in "free
software"?) market economy:

"Geh' doch in den Osten, wenn's Dir nicht passt!"

which translates to something like "Just go to the Soviets if you don't
like it!"

There is another famous saying, I think originally by Rosa Luxemburg:

"Freedom" is always the freedom of the opponent.

Sorry: could not not resist,
