The bbacq room

I wanted to create a corner to drop my thoughts. I can think of no better idea than to start with someone else's:

All legitimate interests are in harmony.
Bastiat c1850ish

You must either agree or disagree, and if you agree you must further seek social solutions through freedom and non-interference as the highest ideals. If you disagree, you are a coercer, and both wrong, and evil.

Sorry the truth is so stark, but we have had so much foolishness and unnecessary hardship by failing to confront this truth head-on that I feel it is long since time.

And it's a fine launching-point for a thread. Clear dichotomy. Few words, of common-knowledge definition. Pithy.
