(25,023 posts)46. If you don't care about the next person's rights then you don't really even care about your own
You'll fit right under the same wheels they did in your own time, you see the foundations being laid to do it.
Rights are no such thing when access to them can be restricted on wicked whim and access to nothing means a struggle in vain.
It is batshit crazy feeling to be having to explain to folks that there are no two sides to this, access and what you have access to are tied too tightly to to be arguing about which is important, they are the same or close enough to that exclusive focus on one is to risk destroying all meaning of both, making twisted mockery in their stead.
