    Please show your work proving that rights exist beyond things people agree to.

    They’re aspirational but they’re also made up. They change based on culture and context. We can say people have a right to a fair trial, but that is created, not discovered.

    You can say you have the right to do whatever but that’s just something you said. It’s not enforced by anything unless people agree. Rights are just customs and laws with better branding.

    I have no idea why you’re talking about the pandemic, either.

        You think I’m a fascist? You clearly don’t know me.

        Furthermore! Just because it says something in an old document, that doesn’t prove anything. Lots of old documents say lots of things. And additionally, the declaration of independence doesn’t even have legal weight. It’s not the constitution. And even furthermore, even if it did have legal weight, the important part would be the laws and their enforcement, not some nebulous axiomatic “”“rights”“”*

        Wait, do you think I’m anti-abortion or siding with the republicans here?
