Forget freedom
Desperation's just another word for nothing left to lose. Backed into a corner, all hope oozing away, sometimes imperceptibly, sometimes in spurts, but regardless as a monotonic decreasing function. Nothing left to lose, nothing left to risk, just go all in with what you've got. And who cares about the result? You've lost hope. If you lose, you've tried, and are no worse off, if you win, what the heck? It hardly matters anymore. You are numb. You are no longer bound by the rules of the game. Anything goes. You've earned it.
