Rights just exist, they are a transcendent object that can’t be defined or limited by laws.

I don't think rights exist in any meaningful way unless enforced / people agree to follow them. They're just norms in a nicer suit. There's no external referee that's going to stop the game because "your rights are being violated".

That's the point, laws and agreements are not rights and don't affect rights.

There’s no external referee that’s going to stop the game because “your rights are being violated”.

Yes, that's why they are called rights and not something else.

People tweeting stuff. We allow tweets from anyone.

RULES:

  1. Mark NSFW content.
  2. No doxxing people.
  3. Must be a pic of the tweet or similar. No direct links to the tweet.
  4. No international politcs
  5. Be excellent to each other.
  6. Provide an archived link to the tweet (or similar) being shown if it's a major celebrity, figure or any politician. If you replace the "x" at their site with xcancel (so it beomes xcancel.com), and you're not on mobile, it will save video. https://web.archive.org/save is another great option. Archive.is is no longer recommended because they remove/alter content.
  7. If a tweet (or similar) makes a statement of fact, either mark it as "satire" in the body or provide the original source link backing up the statement
