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

poorly.

rights and morals are determined by popularity and force (pretty much all of history stands as evidence, you necessarily claim morals and rights are objective yet have not proven it at all)

This is moral relativism that this substack addresses and refutes. Right and wrong mean something. And natural rights derive from this objective ethics.
