A right is something that you can do, on your own, without anyone giving you anything to make it happen.what does that say about the people who believe it?
"rights" are imaginary social constructs that we invent. we can decide what is and isn't a right. the majority of the civilized world thinks that things like health care and education are basic human rights
I have the right to choose
I have the right to bear arms
I have the right to voice my opinion
I have the right to feel safe in my own home
I have the right to do all of that. None of that is a privilege. I have the right to do it and I don't need anyone else to make it happen. The moment I rely on someone else to make something happen, it no longer becomes a right. It becomes a privilege.
