"Society"


Since we've been discussing the word, check out the 27 second mark to see resigning senator Al Franken reference "society".
Worth noting - three dozen women at SNL writing a "he never molested us" letter didn't save him.
Likewise, 8 billion "He never murdered me" letters probably wouldn't save the Green River Killer.

When you cock-block Society, people die.

Well, I learned it from Margaret Thatcher:

"And, you know, there is no such thing as society. There are individual men and women and there are families. And no governments can do anything except through people, and people must look to themselves first." ~ The Baroness

But once you're alerted to it, you see it everywhere, the collectivist use of "society" to essentially erase anyone who opposes them, is insidious.

You do realize that if they cut PBS funding, Dan Carlin and his family would starve right? Dan depends on PBS for his livelihood, and cold hearted libertarians like you would love nothing more than have him beg in the street like a Charles Dickens character.

Ok, what is the word that describes a bunch of people who get together and agree that in order to get along, they need rules of engagement? Things like, let's not murder each other, let's not steal each other's shit, let's make designated roads for going south, north, etc., so it's not a fucking free for all... there's a couple or few more of those.

What is that word? I call that a society.

I don't live in a "society", I live in a Westphalian nation state, HM Confederation of the Dominion of Canada, House of Windsor, "society" is neither here no there, merely a rubric for the totalitarian Left to claim their dogma as being all encompassing, to erase the opposition from the debate.

I have sworn no oath to a "society", I have no obligations to it, it does not exist other than in the mouths of miscreants out to take my liberties.

Never swore any oath to that, there is nothing binding to me to any obligations to it, and so for all intents and purposes political, it does not exist.
