well i guess law was originally derived from people’s ambition towards power and society’s need to still be organized. that’s a universal phenomenon, even if you encountered an exotic animal species on another planet, i reckon.

1+1 does not equal 2 even if you “notate” it differently. That’s the thing about math. compared to power structures invented by humans who have to kill each other over the “science” behind sharing a fucking drinking fountain with a black person.
math exists outside of humanity though. it is a priori. nation states exist because some people decided to enslave others.

Our system of law was derived from the Romans who thought people could own other people.
