Not an illusion... but as the state of no rules. It is simply false that we are granted 'freedom of speech' when what it does is deny us the freedom of speech. It is a restriction and nothing more. You will notice that the law does not give us the freedom to eat... and yet we are entirely free to do so.
There is a limit (that which is possible). There need be no legal limit placed upon speech and some number of other things they use 'freedom of' to restrict it.
Even with no laws, it should be clear that you will be jailed or slain for murdering someone without a good reason. Anarchy might claim no rule of law... but in reality: most laws are written in the minds of the lawmakers.
Please give me a home where cloud buffalo roam
Where the dear and the strangers can play
Where sometimes is heard a discouraging word
But the skies are not stormy all day
