Utilitarianism breaches personal freedoms and leads to genocides. Even if its means were somehow justified, it puts too much trust in its operator; life cannot guarantee any certain outcome.

But even if folk could somehow bypass cosmic law, wouldn’t this sociëtal flawlessness axe the need to decide for others?

Needs do not beget rights.

Natural silence uplifts.

Everyone, fellow or fellowship, has the inalienable right to self-determination.

Local issues meed local control; localisation heals polarisation.

Socialism fails because of the tragedy of the commons — a kind of prisoner’s dilemma. The impossibility of foretelling others’ behavior leads to fellows putting short-term selfly benefits ahead of overall long-term gains.

Socialism also often leads to idleness: a fellow is not incentivised to work hard when he will reap the same benefits regardless.

But families are socialist by definition, yet remain unfazed by the issues above. That’s because socialism can work in a fellowship that is not merely voluntary, but also fully conscientious. Quite hard to achieve outside of family.

Hardly anybody knows that passports were introduced following World War 1 only as a temporary measure. International conferences on passport abolition were held in 1926 and 1947, but to no avail.

It’s always easier to quench freedoms than to restore them.
