There is no such thing as ownership or a right to freedom. You do not have any rights. Nothing belongs to you. You use things based on majority backing. There are no inalienable rights. You do not have a right to freedom. You do not have a right to happiness. You certainly do not have a right to food or water.
No matter how much we wish the universe to be nice and ordered; rights, freedoms, and ownership, its all made up by us.
Technically by fact of being a civilization we are a socialist group. Capitalism assumes individuals can have rights and ownership when really its just a Socialist Society pretending and roleplaying that there are freedoms and rights.
Can a "capitalist" society go on pretending ad infinitum?
What happens when more people start to realize this? Is it in our nature to then stand up even more and live in a better world or turn to the darker aspects of our nature?
