America: bulldozes entire neighborhoods to build highways, displacing everyone with minimal compensation.

China: Nail house.

And everyone is free to fight you in court and sue the shit out of you if they find a flaw in your design.

Btw, don't you think that there are others that want to stay but didn't get a chance to? It's just the one dude who gets no water or electricity? No one else wanted to stay in the whole neighborhood?

What do you think happened before nail houses?

don’t you think that there are others that want to stay but didn’t get a chance to?

Making a supposition that maybe there was doesn't make it true. If you think there is you need to prove it, a claim made without proof can be rejected without proof.

The point isn't "freedom of belief", you are "free" to be as delusional as you want. What they are saying is that good epistemic practice dictates that you have some sort of inference from evidence that actually supports your claim rather than "I made it the fuck up".

"The law, in its majestic equality, forbids the rich as well as the poor to sleep under bridges, to beg in the streets, and to steal bread."

Wonder how wealth plays into the material reality of going to court. phoenix-think
