Not really.

They are just getting rid of any and every liberty that any reasonable society would provide.

Not the rights though. We never had such rights. We just didn't realise those were needed to be written down because others didn't violate those expectations.


Even in an anarchy, without any written rights, we would have those liberties, given a reasonable society. Just not here.
