Considering this was a topic to some of us recently - this is from the operator of http://www.kuro5hin.org/.
Read and comment (full story in link): ----------------------------------------------- Why Community Matters "Human reality is socially constructed. That is, most of the "facts" that determine our daily lives are socially constructed facts, which are true as long as enough people believe them to be true. The right to own property, the right to not be murdered, indeed the right to continue to live at all; all of these are socially constructed rights, which are true only as long as enough of us believe in them. American society has created for itself a Mobius-like reality by privileging capital, or property rights, above all else. This has granted corporations the power to purchase the reality that best suits them, and corporations in turn recreate the reality that privileges money. Communities -- places, real or virtual, where people speak directly to each other, without corporate mediation -- are the only hope we have to reassert control over our own reality, and place it back in the hands of people, instead of the fictional entities we call corporations.

Interesting, especially certain portions. However, like one of the replies, some people will all boil rights down to scientific possibility, which is inherently dangerous. There's always a mighty fine line to walk, *sigh*.

Please, no sociology! I just took (and probably failed) an exam about this shit. I will read this later on.

The United States Declaration of Independence reads, in part, as follows:
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.--That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed... While Jefferson ultimately attributes the source of humanity's "inalienable rights" to the "Creator," he recognizes that the only way for humanity to maintain these rights is by self-governance. That is, whether you are granted rights by God or not is essentially irrelevant, since the actual exercise of those rights is a social phenomenon. Deriving their just powers from the consent of the goverened....that sentence should say it all...but it doesnt...when it comes down to it...the consent come from those with the most money...usually corporations. HellBound and no you dont need a whole lot of god, you need belief in yourself and belief in what you do...and no one but yourself can give you that. |
