However, along with these rights come certain responsibilities: • A right to life implies the duty or responsibility to protect that right; the responsibility not to endanger the lives of others (without their consent); the responsibility not to murder; the responsibility not to violate others’ space, is not to commit adultery and not to steal; • A right to freedom of association implies the duty not to interfere with another’s organisation, unless it is physically interfering with you or endangering your way of life; • A right to freedom of speech implies the responsibility not to incite hate, not to cheat another person, not to lie and not to gossip; • A right to liberty i...

Happy new year to everyone: Freedom vs Slavery and Books I am reading: Read the PS section if you don't have time to read the whole thing. The Zero Marginal Cost Society I am so enjoying this book. Not finished reading it yet, but I can't put it down.

The people who have brought freedom to the world are under attack like never before: Jews, Tibetans, Native Americans, and other minority peace loving people, who don't fit into the status quo. Most people don't realise how valuable their freedoms are until they are gone. In this internet age, we must use our freedoms to get rid of myths, to support our friends, to get rid of ignorance and to bring our sleeping subconscious friends and acquaintances and Facebook friends out of their dreamlands into reality. Our parents and grandparents fought in the Second World War for our freedoms. It is imperative that we maintain the freedoms that we have today, especially the freedoms of speech, of association, of religion, of gender choices, of movement, and that we uphold that great maxim of the French Revolutio...
