| 1 | Andrew Wilson's Force Doctrine: Men have a monopoly on force. Thus, the patriarchy will always exist, because women must ALWAYS appeal to men for their rights.I would assume these answers would be predictable. Do you have a natural right to stink? Yes. Do you have a natural right to stink near other people with their consent? Yes. Do you have a natural right to stink near other people against their will? Maybe. This is a potential conflict. Are you fishing for something in particular? Shall we consider bad breath or sneezing next? The answers are always the same. The logic is consistent regardless of the activity. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 03/01/26 10:51 AM |
| 1 | Andrew Wilson's Force Doctrine: Men have a monopoly on force. Thus, the patriarchy will always exist, because women must ALWAYS appeal to men for their rights.I've provided the objective criterion for Natural Rights. Do I have a natural right to fart? Yes, obviously. You must perform biological functions to survive. Do I have a natural right to fart in the presence of others *with their consent***?** Yes. Do I have a natural right to fart in the presence of others *against their will***?* This is where your Natural Rights potentially* clash with their Natural Rights. This is a clash of conflicting claims, and thus, we construct laws to resolve the con… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 01/01/26 01:44 AM |
| 1 | Andrew Wilson's Force Doctrine: Men have a monopoly on force. Thus, the patriarchy will always exist, because women must ALWAYS appeal to men for their rights.I see the issue. I didn't intend to suggest that every legal right must be a natural right. That isn't possible. As you said, natural rights do not directly address all questionable acts, but they don't have to. Think of it like Physics: it tells you that if you jump off a cliff, you will fall, but it doesn't tell you whether you should jump. That doesn't make physics worthless or subjective; it just means it doesn't address every conundrum. As you recall, I started with a mathematical analogy. … | /r/PurplePillDebate | 29/12/25 01:17 AM |
| 1 | Andrew Wilson's Force Doctrine: Men have a monopoly on force. Thus, the patriarchy will always exist, because women must ALWAYS appeal to men for their rights.I'm attempting the opposite of obfuscation by clarifying the terminology. However, as you noted, there can be no natural right to any institution (like schools or hospitals) since they don't exist in nature. There likewise couldn't be a natural right to destroy an area "without regard to who lives there," because as soon as you introduce the concept of other people, the definition of the action changes. Bombing a village is an act of aggression and you have no natural right to be aggressive towa… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 27/12/25 11:40 PM |
| 1 | Andrew Wilson's Force Doctrine: Men have a monopoly on force. Thus, the patriarchy will always exist, because women must ALWAYS appeal to men for their rights.Regarding Education and Healthcare: You have a natural right to education (the act of learning/studying). Obviously, you may gather knowledge. You do not have a natural right to a teacher (the labor of another). Likewise, you have a natural right to healthcare (the act of resting, bandaging yourself, seeking herbs). You do not have a natural right to a doctor (the labor of another). The Test: As the last man on Earth, I can study and bandage my own leg. I cannot force a teacher or doctor to appe… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 22/12/25 08:50 PM |
| 1 | Andrew Wilson's Force Doctrine: Men have a monopoly on force. Thus, the patriarchy will always exist, because women must ALWAYS appeal to men for their rights.I am respecting Hume by distinguishing between the Definition (the Is) and the Application (the Ought)." Think of it like Prime Numbers: If we agree that "a number divisible only by itself and 1" shall be called a "Prime Number," then there exists a set of numbers that fits this description. This set is discovered by logic and reason. We haven't enumerated them all, but the set objectively exists. Similarly, if we agree that "all actions an individual can perform absent all other humans" shall b… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 22/12/25 07:29 PM |
| 1 | Andrew Wilson's Force Doctrine: Men have a monopoly on force. Thus, the patriarchy will always exist, because women must ALWAYS appeal to men for their rights.I hate to be pedantic, but what does "have" mean? The claim is that "women either have no rights, or they depend on the compassion of some subset of armed men for the enforcement of their rights." Why switch from "have" to "enforce" within that sentence? This conflation confuses Power with Truth. Consider the number Pi. Using all the force you can muster, you cannot change the value of Pi. A tyrant could pass a law declaring Pi to be 3. He could shoot anyone who calculates it as 3.14. He could b… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 22/12/25 11:34 AM |
