RE: Potato talk: Self-Ownership

in #philosophy8 years ago

I think you missed the clincher: in order to propose something, tacitly by your fact of making the proposition you cannot then issue a valid proposition that you have no right to exclusive control of yourself, at minimum your right to control your voice and make a proposition.

Otherwise, how can you even ask for permission since this is a proposal? And who can give you that right anyway?

Self ownership is tacitly expressed even if your words contradict it.

:)

Sort:  

can't try to refute it without performing a performative contradiction. Agreed.
