Reply to comment by contractualist in There Are No Natural Rights (without Natural Law): Addressing what rights are, how we create rights, and where rights come from by contractualist
no they dont.
what you are claiming is that all societies in the past were immoral and that any future societies will also likely be immoral (our conception of rights was different in the past and will be different again in the future).
if we all decided tomorrow that all current rights were in fact incorrect then they would be incorrect by definition.
rights and morals are literally determined by popularity and force.
