@samiamsam@mastodon.social Not really. I can steal your TV, that doesn't mean you don't have a TV.

@samiamsam George Carlin already said as much - look up his routine on rights and privileges

@samiamsam Yes, that's correct - why would anyone think anything else? "Rights" are only ever what society, through the political processes in effect, decides that they are, from time to time and place to place, and this has always been the case.

@samiamsam that's what "rights" always are privledges allowed to you by the ruling class and as it implies they can be changed at will if you don't have the power to resist.

@samiamsam In societies where money is god, there are always tiers applied to everything, including, ofc, every "right" on the books.
