We shouldn't just have rules that the people can never change under any circumstances

No such thing as a right

Yes there is lmao

That's retarded hunter

Even the US constitution allows amendments

It is an absurd system to just have rules that no one can ever change

A right is just a majority agreed priviledge that should always be upheld

Just because people take your rights away doesn’t make them not a right

Yes it does

If there was no government, free speech would exist, so that’s a natural right

Rights are a completely fictions invention by us

We made them and we can take them away

If there was no government, free healthcare wouldn’t exist so that’s not a right

See what I mean

right to bear arms is the same actually

We currently extend a right to free speech for instance but if enough people voted for a party that opposed free speech then free speech would no longer be a right because the people voted to get rid of it

We already don’t have free speech

> rights n. 1) plural of right, which is the collection of entitlements which a person may have and which are protected by the government and the courts, or under an agreement.
Something which can be broken and taken away.

Thus it is a privilege.

You have the privilege to bear arms.

No actually read it

The privilege to free speech.

Rights are protected by the government , not given

actually read it ffs

> person may have and which are protected by the government and the courts, or under an agreement
Then when the government stops 'protecting' it?

When the government says that's no longer true?

Then it’s an authoritarian government

A right is a freedom we agree people should have, If people no longer agree that people should have that freedom then it ceases to be a right

Then it’s revolution time

Then it's not a right.

#

Then it's a privilege.

Good lord.

How is it in anyway authoritarian to grant the people more power over their laws?

Because muh burka of course

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.
