"Some ideas are so stupid that only intellectuals believe them." - Orwell It's just plain offensive to suppose that adult individuals need a bunch of careerist bureaucrats to administer nanny-ish (maternalistic) laws in order to correct and redeem them. How is this not gross interference with law-abiding citizens? The definition of an adult is (in my book, at least) someone who has internalised the functions of their mother and father and is thus self-reliant, well-regulated and (barring an emergency) capable of conducting themselves reasonably in society. No doubt Prof Nussbaum detests the idea of the "patriarchy" and its paternalistic arm. Why then does "matriarchy", maternalism and "nanny state" strike her as so appealing? Because - perhaps - she sees history as providing ample evidence that men are morally incomplete, child-like beings? To a feminist, any power which takes the form of a nanny must be preferable to sex-neutral government, I guess.

@buddy20005295 жыл бұрын
@@quaesitor If you're asking whether we should kill or heal the state, your asking what the state is at it core. I'd reckon that a good place to start would be with the state in its earliest forms. One place to look could be Mesopotamia, with the kingdom of Ur. Scholars like the political scientist James C. Scott have argued that the early state relied on the forced labor and migration of its subjects, and the continual enslavement of neighboring people. The accomplishments of early states like writing and monumental architecture were enjoyed mainly by the (small) administrative and ruling class, rather than by its subjects as a whole (Against the Grain). If you look at police brutality, mass incarceration, warfare, trade policies encouraging reliance on sweatshop labor, and the control of movement through national borders, it's pretty clear that this tendency of the state is still in place. Liberalism was supposed to fix this by spreading the benefits of the accomplishments of the state to everyone, but still, people are continuously excluded from those benefits. Even in Norway and Sweden, places liberalism's come close to covering every citizen, it still relies on systems which exclude people from the wealth of the state. For example, Sweden built part of its wealth on the sale of military hardware, notably, to the Nazis. Norway built its wealth on oil, the burning of which is denying wealth (and possibly even life) to future generations. Both those states rely on borders and citizenship papers to determine who's worthy of receiving the benefits of their welfare state. The state is, even at its best, a system which enriches the few through the immiseration of the many.

When one thinks of "the Social Contract" one thinks of Jean Jacques Rousseau, yet he was the one who demanded that his mistress abandon all 5 of their children! Orphanages at that time were just as horrible as can be imagined, and it is most likely that they all shortly died in them. I mean, a man like that hasn't earned the right to even propose any changes to society's structure!You then mention "the real man" who seems to be self-centered and heartless. As you say "isn't bound by any ties to anyone", well that's what we have today with our 50% single parent "families" and breeding narcissists and psychopaths, irresponsible and without a conscience.Personally I would think that the framework was already laid 2000 years ago in Matthew 25:34-40 which basically recognizes that we are all born with the image of God in us, and because of that we require to be treated with dignity, love and respect. And like Christ's parable about the King who chooses those who showed compassion, and love, giving themselves to those who were less priviledged, then says in verse 40 that "to the extent that you did it to even the least of them you did it unto Me", it shows that we have a responsibility to God which has eternal consequences!One only needs to read Jeannine Olson's fine historical work, "Calvin and Social Welfare: Deacons and the Bourse Francaise" to see how "Social Reform" in 16th Century Geneva and Strasbourg started to organize itself.As we've heard said even today, that a Society is judged by how it treats the most vulnerable. This is nothing new, yet it needs to be realigned and adjusted regularly because man would rather focus on city planning and economic achievement.

No, because you can make it match yours. And you can make it yours if you THINK about the idea. Hypocritical is to listen or to read ideas from the point of view of someone who thinks that has the power to condem others based upon their actions. So... are you in the position to consider an idea "bad" just because of the person who said it? This only means that you don´t think about ideas, that you don´t care about Thought, but about morals. An idea is not about the moral life of the person who express it, an idea is about the idea itself, an idea is about Thought.

I agree. The absence of respect doesn't mean disrespect or treating someone with a lack of basic dignity. Many social issues can arise from giving credit where it *isn't* due. The merit system is imperative.

Additionally, humility is a sign of a truly great person. Just stating an opinion and expecting it to be an axiom is self-righteous at best.

I don't equate respect and dignity. Basic dignity should be shown to all but respect must be earned. Basically, don't harm people, add unnecessary stress to their lives or try to improve your situation at their expense. My version of expanded Libertarianism. At the society level, we should try to maintain an environment (particularly for children) that provides a standard of dignity.
