What kind of backwards arsed ayn rand bullshit is this.

You do realise society actually only came into existence in and of itself via a loose collective agreement of behaviours, yes? These behaviours were not determined by whether or not they fit into a too hard basket, but whether or not they ensured the social strucuture remained intact for the good of the collective. Those eventually became codes of laws, and now relatively recently the conceept of human rights.

No shit housing was never ranked a right or even on the radar until recently, it wasn't an issue that affected enough of the population that it started to threaten social cohesion. It is now.

You're acting like lawless nature should dictate our actions when the sole fuckin' reason we're the dominant species is our ability and innate nature that works outside these parameters. It's laughable
