ID: white text on a black background around a faded photo of a person with a black face scarf on and a hat that says “illegal” on it:

“But it’s illegal”

"Saying that something is illegal is not an argument, it is an appeal to authority. Laws are arbitrary dictates to control a population, not universal standards of morality.

      Yup, the holocaust was legal, as was slavery, as was the genocide of Indigenous peoples the world over, as were so so many other atrocities.
