No, just legal rights, which is still illiberal and moronic

2018-04-03 03:09:08 UTC  

@radeon How about you go educate yourself on 'citizenship' and 'citizens duties'

2018-04-03 03:09:22 UTC  

I'm sayig "Let people opt out"

2018-04-03 03:09:23 UTC  

How about we violate nobody's rights except those who have individually forfeited them?

2018-04-03 03:09:35 UTC  

No one's rights are being violated

2018-04-03 03:09:43 UTC  

citizens benefit from being a part of the state, non citizens don't. the argument here is what constitutes citizenship.

2018-04-03 03:10:04 UTC  

even non citizens benifit

2018-04-03 03:10:24 UTC  

from the relative peace of having a state system

2018-04-03 03:10:36 UTC  

Everyone gets RIGHTS

Only citizens get PRIVLEGES.

2018-04-03 03:10:46 UTC  

^

2018-04-03 03:10:52 UTC  

And privelges come with a cost

2018-04-03 03:11:48 UTC  

this is according to ideology not what is actually being practiced.

2018-04-03 03:11:54 UTC  

correct

2018-04-03 03:12:04 UTC  

except for green card holders

2018-04-03 03:12:21 UTC  

Why give anyone rights when you give no one rights and give the ruling class privleges?

2018-04-03 03:12:37 UTC  

permanent residents have to contribute or they can lose that status

2018-04-03 03:13:12 UTC  

I would argue that they contribute by paying taxes

2018-04-03 03:13:17 UTC  

Actually, this might solve the open borders issue as well

2018-04-03 03:13:24 UTC  

Again you are basing this on your opinion. I sound like a broken record. You have nothing concrete to show us evidence for any one of your numerous assumption-based policies. You know none of this. You don't have an argument as to why people who don't "serve" shouldn't be allowed to have their say about the state that they have to live in. You don't know that creating an aristrocratic citizen class will improve anything. This is just opinions, bad ones at that.

2018-04-03 03:13:46 UTC  

@radeon I said this already

2018-04-03 03:13:49 UTC  

pay attention

2018-04-03 03:13:59 UTC  

You need to understand that the point of democracy is not to serve ***you***.

2018-04-03 03:14:08 UTC  

Yeah, no shit

2018-04-03 03:14:11 UTC  

that is why we are not a democracy

2018-04-03 03:14:27 UTC  

The US is actually a Republic. It is governed by rule of law. The elected are bound by oath to the written governing limits (ie constitution) yet vote "together" and create laws to address concerns of the represented in a democratic way

2018-04-03 03:14:32 UTC  

He's asking you for evidence to back up your opinions

2018-04-03 03:14:42 UTC  

lol

2018-04-03 03:14:43 UTC  

Democracy is to serve the interests of everyone who lives under the state, even when that conflicts with your agenda.

2018-04-03 03:15:03 UTC  

Yes which is retarded

2018-04-03 03:15:07 UTC  

@radeon That's why we're not a democracy

2018-04-03 03:15:21 UTC  

unless it protects the minority individual rights

2018-04-03 03:15:31 UTC  

which is what a republic does

2018-04-03 03:15:47 UTC  

You're doing the political theory equivilent of deleting twitter polls when the outcome runs counter to your ideology and then saying it got brigaded.

2018-04-03 03:16:04 UTC  

who is?

2018-04-03 03:16:05 UTC  

da fuq?

2018-04-03 03:16:19 UTC  

all interests cant be served at the same time radeon

2018-04-03 03:16:29 UTC  

through representation

2018-04-03 03:16:42 UTC  

No but that doesn't mean we must serve the interests of an entitled minority.

2018-04-03 03:16:53 UTC  

A voluntary minority

2018-04-03 03:17:03 UTC  

Anyone can be in it free of charge
