Published in 2022 amid US Government's tyranny crescendo-ing to unprecedented magnitudes as done by many (if not all) presidential administrations and congressional classes, unchallenged by judicial benches, particularly those of 21st century (without exception), that is to say, my 12th book (3rd of trilogy thus 1st and 2nd), entitled appropriately and exhaustively Propositions, Problems & Poems on the Peculiar Human ABILITY to REASON, Singular Human RIGHT to CONSENT & Other Neglected Matters (May 2022)...
At core of arguments favoring social contracts is the matter of consent not by each and every individual, rather as a presumed societal whole. Rarely proposed as ethically fundamental is unanimous consent, for conveniently, expediently promulgated the combination of consent explicit as well implicit, tacit hence participation noncontentious; qui tacet consentire videtur or silence implies consent.
At this juncture, it is imperative to point out the human paradox. For if arguments for particular social contracts and/or political isms are unbearable, intolerable even unfavorable, undesirable then hairs on back of neck rise involuntarily else immediately ever defiantly, while the mind determines instantly, logically the necessity for unanimous consent at most, at least one’s own consent.
However if arguments for particular social contracts and/or political isms are desirable, favorable even tolerable, bearable then hairs on back of neck remain undisturbed, relaxed, while the mind carries on toward secondary thus subsequent concerns.
In
the former case, it is irrelevant whether one explicitly communicates to
others, for dissent nonetheless the opinion, posture, preference, sentiment,
emotion even passion. The noncommunicant or silent person is neither without
thought ever changing nor opinion ever altering per his/her peculiar ability to
reason ever evaluating. Consequently to assume a person’s noncommunication or
silence as equaling to a particular conclusion such as consent, cannot be
anything other than presumption, arrogance motivated by covetousness.

Force; the covetousness perfectly bloomed in colors of
blood
Introrsely the presumptuousness upon the impassioned
floods
Clouds o’er reddish mud, aft’ fiery pillars then smoky
plumes
Per society’s killers onto the twilight-dance in
polity’s ballroom
Elitists’ jollity although drollery, as commoners prance
in line
Dance in kind per trance like-mind, askance, constant,
till benign
Bovines stilled, canines reeled upon the Pavlovian
convenience
The usual expediency, insomuch the subsidy unto obedience
Study, Ponder, Labor, till last Breath.
