Surely it is much more authoritarian to tell the people that the Government has set some laws that can never be changed ever.

Rights make sure people are allowed to do basic things or not have them done to them

In some circumstances mob rule is authoritarian, by your logic the nazi party wasn’t authoritarian because that was voted in.


lol you used the definition of rights, to argue why rights don’t exist

Until the government says they're no longer a thing @Burly Bong

Then your "rights" dissapear

And you realise they were simply privileges.

but they would still be a thing, it's just that the government was authoritarian

There is nothing in the USA stopping the removal of the constitution.

Just because authoritarian governments exist doesn’t mean rights don’t

uh, a gun behind every blade of grass is

Sounds like mob rule

The majority of people want to keep it in place.

The majority want it like that

So they're doing that

Mob rule over human rights isn’t good that’s what I’m arguing

>Mob rule
***Laughs in Electoral College***

Who knew America was mob rule?

Any Democracy is pretty much Mob Rule to some extent

how is republicanism mob rule

The US is slightly different but the idea is the same

The majority of people voted the Nazi party does that mean they didn’t violate hjman rights cause if people want to gas the Jews they should be allowed to

Instead of the majority of people deciding everything the majority of electoral college votes decide everything

We don't care if they violated those rights or not.

We don’t care about the Holocaust?

People voted for that

So was it ok?

I don't care about it, no.

No cause mob rule over human rights isn’t a good thing

Bruh

Edgy

I don't care about it either tbh

Why would I? It was a generation ago..

Fundamentally if the people voted for it, it should be implemented, We shouldn't just let the Government create some laws that can never be changed

Missing my point though

Should the people be able to do what they like in their own country? Yes.

That is very close to authoritarianism within itself to just say that the people are not allowed to get rid of some laws

Does that mean they can do things I don't like?

Yes.

Does it mean I like that?

No.

But I believe they have the right to do what they want in their homeland.
