the so-called liberal “rights of man” 

remember that « none of the so‐called rights of men goes beyond the egoistic man, the man withdrawn into himself, his private interest and his private choice, and separated from the community as a member of civil society.  Far from viewing man here in his species‐being, his species‐life itself—society—rather appears to be an external framework for the individual, limiting his original independence. The only bond between men is natural necessity, need and private interest, the maintenance of their property and egoistic persons. »

under socialism, these weights would be reversed, and designers would be mandated to facilitate the participation of ALL persons in society
