freedom is privileges purchased by a monopoly on violence
You love the word "abstract". Lol
yes
abstract in the sense it doesn't exist
it's just an idea
I do, because it is an important concept
it has no bearing upon life beyond that people believe in it
"Freedom from x" only exists as an abstract
It's you forcing your hubristic beliefs on nature
Yeah and almost everything in society is based around those type of beliefs. And yes it is somewhat of a circular fallacy. But does that mean that it is not a healthy construct for the masses?
he's right you know
You cannot accept what is
just like crimes are arbitrarily defined
there is no crime against humanity
rape was a normal occurrence for millions of years
in every biological organism
I would not ever use *freedom from x*
As a kind of freedom
sure you could get reprecussions
but in of itself it wasn't a crime
society is not a construct though
tribalism is engrained in your DNA
if we consider tribalism a form of society no it's a biological strategy that certainly exists in many species
*modern civilization
or civilization
agriculture exists
morality does not exist
morality is arbitrarily defined by what you feel
there is no real basis to it
Oh boy. You guys take a hard modernist perspective to everything huh?
the only morality we have as humans really is in-group, out-group, dysgenic, eugenic
which is based entirely on what your genes force you to feel
you are just an expression of your genome in different contexts
It's actually opposed to modernist belief. Your liberal "rights and "freedoms" are by definition modernist
bad things in morality are defined via your genome saying it's probably bad
good things in morality are defined via your genome saying it's probably good
You do understand what a modernist is right?
I'm saying that all morality stems from your genes telling you what to feel
I did not say this is bad or good
so don't put words in my mouth
