I mean, yes, but I'd add the qualifier "so long as it doesn't impact others". If you want to dump your trash in a communal area, it's imo a bit too easy to say that it's a free country and who am I to tell you not to do that. Maybe this sounds too obvious to spell out (to me it would have until recently) but I recently met two persons in unrelated places who really felt that nobody should tell them what to do because they didn't tell anyone else what to do either. As if we don't all share resources on this planet
