Do you believe people as individuals, deserve the right to be happy and not be judged by others?

[Kayla45]

Yes

Maybe

No

[madhatters4]

everyone deserves a right to achieve and fight happiness. i suppose we are all entitled to it but happiness is our own pursuit so we have to find a way to be happy in a manner that fits in with society.

not be judged by others? i mean we can't stop people from judging us, even if we aren't aware of the judgment people will judge. it's in our nature right? you see someone walking down the street and think, "damn that's a good looking person" or "why are they wearing that?"

so i don't think we can have the right to not be judged. but hopefully we development a mentality where we dont' care about judgments by people that are superficial

[icebrg25]

People have a right to live their life as they see if someone wants to go in the middle of the freeway and sit there for the rest of his life that's his right and all we can do is respect it and him and not hit him we're not here to judge anyone we don't have the capacity to do that fairly so what a person does with their life is there right and their business long as you're not harm themselves or anyone else we cannot impose our ideals how we think life should be cuz we don't even know who knows how life is supposed to be live people can do what they want with their lives that's their god-given right and God's law tribes over any other here no person alive here is better than the next and has the right to tell another how to live their life who knows you better than you

[provokeesmokee]

To be happy? Absolutely. Doesn't mean they will always be happy, though. They have a right to act how they want, but if they break a law and get imprisoned, they don't have a right to be out because that'll make them happy.

To not be judged? No right at all.
They can't control other people or their opinions. There's no thought police and if someone is silently or even vocally judging without committing a crime, there's nothing illegal with that.

It's the judger's right to have the ability to form opinions and judge. They don't have a right to tell the other person how to act, but they do have every right to think about how fucking stupid it is.

[midnightmoon05]

That sounds confusing. And are two unrelated.
Being happy is a choice. One can learne to created inner fulfillment and contentment by thyaelf. No one can take that away from you aside from war. In the US, we are living in the greatest time where we all should be happy with what we have.
being judged is outside influences, we can’t control that…but one can decide if you want to let outside influences trouble yiu. To me…they can waste their time to judge me…I am a free person.

[ohsheeT]

Of course I do if you think about it and if you ever ask a question why are we here on this planet what is our destiny what is the reason and if we are born with the god Gene within us in our DNA then you would think that we'd want to be the best we possibly could be and that means when you look at somebody you see yourself when you speak to somebody you speak to yourself you stay out of people's drama you don't judge people because there's nobody better than you or anybody else on this planet some have different circumstances than others and those people you try to help them because we are all equal no matter what

When you judge somebody you think you're more Superior or you think you're better that's just not the case but anyway my belief on this planet is become one with yourself one with others and one with this universe and you will get to your destiny you will get to where you're going where you're meant to be because people that don't judge people the status drama are happier they're happy people the list things just slide off their back it's not a big deal because really there's not a big deal in this world until we make it a big deal

You always have that unhappy person that loves to just get on you and grind because they want you to be just like them they don't want you to be one with yourself they don't want you to go further in life because you understand it and they might not that's when you try to help them and if they don't want help then you just keep moving on and smile because there's nothing that big of a deal until people judge somebody that's just wrong you line 20 of us up I guarantee we all have similar problems in life are we been through it before
Because without mistakes without failure you can't succeed so we all have to go through this sooner or later of either being judged or judging somebody and then paying that price for doing so just become the best you can become treat everybody as an equal because we are

[Valdemort]

1) yes. It would we rather weird not to want people to be happy. I think if happiness was humanities goal, the world would be a much better place. Especially individual happiness, because an individual will never be truthfully happy if it depends on a common agreement.
2) People will always judge others. Yet, someone who is happy with themselves couldn't care less about judging someone else. In its entirety, if our society was build on happy individuals, I reckon there wouldn't be anything like harmful judgement. So in that sense, let an individual experience true happiness and being judged wouldn't even be close to anything remotely significant.

[JacobJordan]

everyone is free to live their life how they want. that does not mean you are free from judgment. nor does that mean everyone needs to respect your choices. If you make a bad choice and freely choose that does not change the bad choice. as a result people who did not make said bad choice may judge you for that bad choice. if you can not handle some people judging you then you should not be making bad choices or you should keep things to yourself. look at the trans community or the gay community. they are very very open about everything and then get incredibly upset when some people do not affirm them or respect the incredibly stupid choices they have made. and yet not once do they consider that perhaps they should just keep things to themselves because them how can people not respect you

[BoopBoopBeep]

You have the right to pursue happiness. Happiness is the outcome. That's on you to achieve it. Also, telling people they can't judge us is limiting their freedom of thought, and that's not possible. Your happiness should not be so mired in external validation that others judging you impacts it one way or the other. You do you.

[AmandaYVR]

THIS. 🎯

[SotiCoto]

Don't be ridiculous. This isn't even something you can change. Judging others is a necessary part of survival. Being able to predict who is likely to help you and who is more likely to stab you in the back is vitally important. Everyone is looking out for their own best interests, and that is why they judge. It is completely impossible to be free from the judgement of others as long as your life is intersecting theirs. The most you can do is correct their judgement when they get it wrong... and even then you can't necessarily make them believe you.

[PositiveFlight]

People have the right to pursue happiness as in our founding documents. But no one is exempt from the consequences of feedback and constructive criticism. Nor are people exempt from the natural consequences of their decisions. No one is entitled to anything other than unalienable rights

[IslaTheWitch]

Of course. But that doesn't mean they don't have to fight for it. This is because we live in the real world, which is far from ideal. People are also not ideal. So, to secure your happiness, fight for it. And if you don't like someone's opinion about you and your choices, just don't care.

[Rei13]

I believe everyone has the right to happiness and should be treated decently, but I have the right to judge too. Obviously you should let people be if they’re not hurting anyone but I can still have my own thoughts too. Nobody is free from judgement but honestly what does it matter what other people think.

[IceCreamSandwich]

I assume by "not be judged" you mean "not be attacked or prohibited" by others. If you really meant judged like someone thinking you're a bad person, that would be impossible—and obviously nobody has a right to what somebody else thinks. People shouldn't have their happiness limited or condemned by other people's judgment though, that they do have a right to.

[jshm2]

There is no such thing as "deserve to be happy". Bitch you are living to die, and your level of "happy" is not going to help that.

As for "judged," from the day you were born you were judged, and even after you die you will be judged.

It's no wonder people simple minded people are divided. They're looking for the wrong fucking rights!

[Billlewis]

Of course we do, but that's exceedingly difficult in today's society. It seems that everyone's behavior is someone else's business, and technology facilitates it unendingly.

[DarkWinterNights]

You cannot control other peoples opinions.


Rights cannot hinge on someone else being forced against their will to sacrifice their time, money or labor. That’s why we have a right to freedom of speech and a right to self defense, but not a right to free healthcare or a right to free food.

[Anonymous]

Yes and no. If you murdered or raped kids or some sick fucked uo shit like that than no. Your happiness doesn’t matter. As for judging whether you like it or not it happens all the time. How do you think we got to where we are today? By making judgements. Some good things came of it as well as bad things. But it’s necessary in many parts of life.

[Blueeyes81]

Yes but you can't overcome human nature. That gut feeling we get about someone is us judging them.. We judge people late at night when out walking for example. We are constantly taking in information and making our decisions based upon them whether consciously or subconsciously. So to judge is to be human.

[NathanDavis]

for the most part, yes...

is not something we're entitled to (not in the reality we actually live in) but it is something we all should strive to give to one another, happiness and understanding that is... not harsh judgment

[sage2021]

Not being judged by other people won't bring you happiness. Happiness has to come from within yourself not by other people. If came from other people it sure wouldn't last very long.

[XingQi]

In general, no.

Everybody has a right to live their life, but if what they are doing is absolutely absurd or disruptive to others, they forfeit their right to be respected. Nobody is above criticism of others. It is equal treatment.

[strateguy632]

switch the VERB as a test. "people deserve the RIGHT to not be SEEN by others" obviously other people are not included in anyone's rights.

[TRUPTGD]

Depends on what makes them happy. Do pedophiles have the right to be "happy" and not judged? Devil's advocate aside, in general, I would probably say yes--again, so long as their happiness doesn't require any unreasonable actions or concessions on my part. **shrug** 😇👌

[Peter_Penetrator]

Only those being judged can control the reaction of those judging.


When being judged you must not allow the judge to get their intended result.
