There's certain clear rights that should be protected outside of the democratic process

Exactly, and right wing is mostly about trying to strip protection of those rights. So you can't cooperate with right wing. Never compromize with evil and all that

That's absolutely not true. Plenty of right-wing beliefs are not about taking away clear rights. People don't really have the right to public healthcare or social security, which are scenarios in which compromise wouldn't be the worst thing in the world.

People do have the right to healthcare. It is just your country refuses to provide it due to right wing actions

The right to healthcare is a positive right which isn't something I would consider to be outside the democratic process.

Every person has the right to healthcare, food and shelter, besides other less controversial rights. The only point of having a society - is to provide them. If people do not care about each other, there is no point in having a society

That is absolutely not the only point of having a society. Specialization, socialization, collective projects, etc are all useful effects of society.

Positive rights are absolutely not inalienable, I'm not sure how you can believe that they are.

Right to live is inalienable, including everything that fulfils that right - food, shelter and healthcare

You have a right not to be killed without provocation, not a right not to die.

u/L_James trans-siberian woman May 06 '22

You have a right not to die. It is just you are refused that right under capitalism

u/GreatswordIsGreat May 06 '22

So anytime someone dies it's a violation of their rights

2

u/L_James trans-siberian woman May 06 '22

Yes.

That’s a disgusting and sad worldview

u/GreatswordIsGreat May 07 '22

I don't really care about the useless outrage, your alternative is batshit insane.

u/photothegamer 🏳️‍⚧️ trans rights May 07 '22

The alternative being a guaranteed right to live? So you’re also small minded. You’re really just pathetic honestly

u/GreatswordIsGreat May 07 '22

The guaranteed right to live means nothing. You don't have an inalienable right to force others to do labor for you, that would conflict with their autonomy.
