This song is known for its themes against the Vietnam War, telling that war should not be invoked but rather us harmonizing as a society. War has ruined society as a whole and added conflict across close nations, worsening trade, freedom, and universal rights towards societies. Fortunate Son negates all ideas of war, as we all should.

The Republic - Plato

wimo2096 — 2025-04-22 13:02:00 UTC

This is a classical philosophical book by Plato. It touches on the importance of educational rights between youth and how collective independence should be favoured over individual freedom. As a society, we should work together to free ourselves and provide for each other, rather than retreating into ourselves. Plato had many unique insights in his time, reflecting many generations later. Maybe he had a point....

This freedom allows us to work ourselves up to build a stable job and enjoy our work. This right lets people who cannot work be entitled to other options tailored to getting them back to better conditions. This right lets us reject traditional ways to get into the workforce, rather than pursuing education or building our own business.

Children need time to explore and learn from their surroundings; it's fundamental to life. Removing this right not only removes the sense of exploration a child needs but also isolates them from reality, leading them to lose touch with everything around them. Staying curious while young is fundamental to growth. It is a right all people should be entitled to, especially youth.

The Right to Privacy

Privacy allows people to feel more secure in what they do, giving them more freedom and better overall respect. Taking away the right to privacy removes the protective layer around people, making them feel they need to act a specific way, and think they are consistently exposed. Having privacy is crucial to personal satisfaction and recurring growth.

Martin Luther King Jr

MLK was a civil rights leader who got a kickstart on America's movement on civil rights. He is most notably known for his iconic "I have a dream" speech, a movement against racial discrimination, which moved the country past racial motives. He was important to the civil rights movement, and supported all nations, supporting equal rights.

American History X

This is a film which is centered around a Neo Nazi in prison who shows a strong hatred for people of color. By the time he's out of prison, he's teaching his brother to respect people of all colours. This teaches the importance of equality across all people, regardless. It is a very well done movie with great motives, give it a watch!

CHINA

China abolishes rights in many ways. Privacy? Nope. Want a big family? Sorry! Different religion? Get out of the country!

China is known for its poor record of human rights. The country's people are held against their will and it is sad to see.

Myanmar

This country is strictly for Buddhism, denying any other religious beliefs entering the country. It has been an issue for Catholics, Christians, Hindus, and Muslims to stay in this country without facing any discrimination. People are denied the right to free religion, enforcing military to ensure they only support Buddha.

Economic Pay Gap

wimo2096 — 2025-04-23 17:43:00 UTC

Many women across the world are denied the right to equal pay as men. This threatens women in their later careers securing a stable income alone. If they aren't alone, they can feel forced into a relationship to ensure a stable income. When women are paid equally, they are more motivated to be in the workforce and can count on it. We are all entitled to equal pay and the lifestyle that hard work encapsulates.
