most of it is fake anyways - 'rights' come and go depending on the jurisdiction; the key is to have some degree of fun and arbitrage on the fringes - rights are just societal norms and expectations like the southern border - we cared so much about the economy it may as well have not existed and guess who paid the price - poor american framilies

Without sacrifice, there are no rights, because there is no need for it, as the law is a reaction to unnecessary sacrifice.

there’s some privileged comments here about how rights are made up.
I can only get that we have our typical cis, het, white male saying this.
They should stay in their safe bubble and toot about something they understand like Antiques Roadshow.

I'm not gonna care until other people care about mine. In other words; if your activism doesn't include trans rights I don't care about your rights.

Yup. You want to keep your rights? Then help make sure EVERYONE has those rights. 'First they Came' by Pastor Niemoller isn't a lament, it's a goddamn WARNING.

I remember a saying, which is attributed to Mahatma Ghandi: The Ganges of rights springs from the Himalayas of duties.
