RE: Why We Should Get Rid of Human RIghts

in #government7 years ago (edited)

They are also a distraction and a way to divide people even further. Honestly the word human bothers me, since I'm constantly breaking words down. Hu man, which phoenetically would be hue man, makes me think we're talking about the hue of man, or a shade of man and not man itself. The word man has been distorted. In a not so distant past the plural for man was man and it defined all of us, male and female alike, and not because of some chauvenistic ideal which is what they would have...man.. believe, but in fact the opposite was true, it put all of us, no matter gender or race in one category, without separation.

Yeah that's a great point on the word man. I hadn't considered that before, in spite of using the word as a plural myself many times. Just realised that man is in many, which speaks to there being multiple as well. Coincidence?

Ohhh, nice one, I hadn't thought of that. Doubtful it's a coincidence, I am very skeptical of coincidence in language.

Yes, there are far too many of them. Far too many to be accidental for sure.
