    I see your problem.

    You don’t believe people when they tell you who they are. You imagine their actions and their beliefs to be separate from the individual even though they are the beliefs and actions of the individual. Your idealism doesn’t reflect reality.

    This isn’t an argument, it’s a fact. The only way to not be part of the social contract is to remove yourself from society, including all of societies infrastructure. You are obligated to support and work within the rules of the society you are a part of. If you object on moral reasons then you can make your attempts to change your society or which society you are part of through whatever means you have access to.

    You were never apart from society so you are bound by the social contract by default, failure to uphold the social contract will result in the following violence: being put in the corner, being told ‘no’, spanking, detention, suspension, loss of employment, physical violence, police arrest, incarceration, garnishing of wages, loss of access to social services, etc.











  • Funny how those who don’t want to be part of society still want all the protections and infrastructure provided by society.

    They never think about the money they use, shops they visit, the roads they drive on, the clean water they drink, the power they use, the food they access, the regulations and laws keeping them from being forced into slavery or poisoned or killed by their neighbour who wants their stuff, the access to health services, firefighters, police… They somehow never think about what society gives them only what they can take without having to give back.

    I think we should let them be free of society, the historical term for that is outlaw, you’re free to be free from society, come back and you get shot.

    And your argument about authoritarianism is just stupid, socially agreed upon authority is a necessity for maintaining any set of rules.

    I swear you spend hours upon hours just being wrong on the Internet on purpose.
