I’m going to start a new political party. It’s the Human Rights Abuses Are Bad party, and our platform is that we don’t like human rights abuses. I understand from this election cycle that this is a controversial opinion but I think it has a lot of merit
if you vote for the Human Rights Abuses Are Bad party then people will die
Actually, politics pretty much always involves deciding who is going to die.
That might be violent criminals, that might be cops, that might be dudes who are not violent criminals that get killed by cops anyway. That might be cancer patients who die because you didn’t immediately seize all wealth to use for treating cancer. That might be future patients that die because you seized all wealth, undermining new treatment development.
Even if you get rid of the state, that, too, is a decision about who will die.
