No my chair is literally an object to me. In that I do not consider it beyond it’s purpose and potential to serve my needs or those of someone I consider a person.

This is not an appropriate way of thinking about a human being

the only difference between me and your chair is if you kick me out of frustration I can kick back.

Doesn’t that imply that the only source of human rights is the physical ability to defend what you consider yours. Not sure that’s where we want to land on morality and consent

this is the is/ought distinction. Just because this is how the world is doesnt mean we should let cruelties take place or commit them ourselves.

I’m a socialist because I see too many injustices in the world and I believe they can be fixed.
