The problem is that tradition is so entrenched in people's mind, that most people don't see the restrictions and suppression. Everything seems "normal" to them. On the contrary, freedom is perceived as "evil".
Yes, I think of the Amish for example they feel freedom is evil.

Cultural customs feel normal and acceptable because human beings find comfort in the predictable so cultural structure was developed in societies throughout human history.
