Thank you Pete.  Here's the crux so far:

"So that’s the relationship between bonding and freedom. Every time you
make an “if A then B” postulate you’ve reduced your freedom. And every time
you get someone else to subscribe to an “If A then B” postulate you’ve got
them to reduce their freedom. Tricky isn’t it?

It’s a sneaky one, isn’t it? No one would suspect this until they examine
it, that here is how you can lose your freedom.

You know how to lose your freedom without being carted off to the local
constabulary and getting locked up in a cell. *You know you can lose all
the freedom there is in this universe if you make enough “if A then B”
postulates. And you’ll make these postulates absolutely injudiciously.* You
see that?

You can trap yourself thoroughly. And work yourself into a hole. And be
just as trapped as any prisoner in his cell if you make “If A then B”
postulates, and you would have done it all yourself. You don’t need any
help from anyone else. You can do it all yourself."
