re: Is there such thing as a basic human right?

Life liberty and the pursuit of happiness.
You shouldn’t be killed arbitrarily
You shouldn’t be jailed arbitrarily
And you should be able to pursue happiness without unreasonable objections.
So the government cannot just kill you, lock you up, nor stop you from pursuing legal goals.

One would think it would start with the right to be born, but it seems to a certain people in this world, it isn't.

I recently read the book Evicted by Matthew Desmond. At the end of the book, the author argued that housing should be viewed as a human right
Funny, I read a book Sapiens by Yuval Harari in which he gives the history of our species/world and that there are no basic Human Rights

human rights are not tangible assets that must be confiscated by force from one group to transfer to another group.

It's early for your regular troll.

I can point you to some incredible books that won't pollute your mind. Try:
Think and Grow Rich- Napolean Hill.
This will help.

The answer my friend is blowing in the wind, and the winds are always changing direction. You’re never going to come to a consensus on any of this until you first agree to a moral standard to live life by.

Big difference between individual liberty and expansive entitlements.

Life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. The end

Your God given right of self defense. 100% natural.

Anything can be forced if you hide behind the guise of human right. Anything tangible is not a human right.

Rights are God-given.
Food, shelter, etc

You just like giving away free schiitt because you'll blow or drop trou at the drop of hat.
That's not the way the real world works, degenerate.

gave insight into what acquiring and maintaining shelter is like for people living in poverty.
Constantly fixing broken shite. Constantly dealing with late rent. Constant excuses. Constant gaslighting. Loss of property value.
That’s what the landlords deal with.

Those are the wrong rights. Those are gimmes.
Posted on 3/18/25 at 6:40 am to 4cubbies
The idea of rights has been conflated with entitlements. This is a strategy of socialists.
They are separate concepts, totally unrelated, and should be treated as such.
