Rules
Fun facts: the UK has crazy laws protecting trees and hedgerows. There's a national tree registry for old boys.
and everyone just went with it.
Technically, how all law really works at its core.
Someone thought me the concept of a legal fiction and I still think about it.
Land ownership, companies, nation states, citizenship: all exist because we agree that it does.
And money.
Technically, how all law really works at its core.
Well, that and the threat of overwhelming unilateral violence
when the people who make the rules say "Sorry, the rules are the rules, there's nothing we can do" remember that they literally gave a tree human rights just because they felt like it.
The trees owned the lands until the humans took it from them.
Imagine denying other living and breathing lifeforms agency to thrive and change lol lol lol
Like abortion? Thank goodness we repealed Roe Vs Wade
