To the people who argue that borders are bad because they are artificial, that’s really the argument you’re going with? That’s the rhetorical hill you’re willing to die on?

Boy howdy, read some philosophy or get smarter or something because that is a terrible argument.

Nearly everything humans do or create is artificial in exactly the same sense as borders are contrived. From all law to friendship, from morality to marriage, it’s all made up by we humans.

There are actual good arguments against borders yet this “artificial” one is the one I see by far the most often. Is it that people just do not think or rather that they can not?
