They aren't real "rights", but they are real. You just defined them.
I don't mean to be hard headed. I feel like I agree with you since the beginning on the idea of it. I'm just stuck on the "isn't real" part of it.
Because I can very easily say "rights" aren't real as well. It's just pixels on a screen. :)
No, it's in there. The "rights" are part of a number of societal rules which depend on the "dance" (of life). In this case, the fighting for said rights and communicating that they exist are part of the "dance".
The rest of it I was describing life, because consequences matter where I live at least. And since it seemed "natural rights" were bound only by the consequences you are willing to take, then they are the same as life itself, which I thought was pretty funny.
I mean, life is as life is. Would you stop talking on the street if society decides that is a crime, or if that means you'll be discriminated against? Some people might, but you can't expect everyone to do it.
It's all a big dance and societal rules fluctuate depending on who's dancing. You just gotta dare live life (preferably in a good way).
It's ok, I hereby declare it is a natural right to face the consequences of your actions.
I think it's fair to say absolutely 0 cars is also a problem. But we could use a bit more public transport, and less cars than what we currently have. Especially where we know many people move "in mass", like cities in rush hour.
In all of life there is a balance.
After reading your comment I agree with you. I was being fat-phobic inadvertently.
Ah, I see. I tunnel-vision'd on that one comment. But ye, that's a fair point.
Is it OK to mock the femininity of a gay right winger? He could act straight with a “kick in the butt”
Then what did you mean by this question?
So, I don't think it's ok to be fat phobic. Someone's personal appearance should not be shamed, just for the heck of it. However, the topic of fat phobia will appear with greater frequency (whether for or against) in political communities. That's what I'm pointing at.
And to choose a political community as one's safe space means that sometimes the conversation will come up, and some people who disagree will show up. I find it rather "safer" to engage in non-political activities and leave all of this discourse somewhere else. As if saying "I'm ok with who I am, so instead of seeking validation online, I will do what I want to do.".
If I somehow said fat-phobia is okay, that was not at all my intention, so I apologize for that.
Man, I hate question headlines. They entice you to click a link while promising an answer that may not come. You do get ads, though.
Wish we lived in a society were titles were like:
Edit: Nothing against OP. I'm just venting about this little thing.
