What the Court Cannot Recover
from Philosophics — Philosophical and Political Ramblings · host Bry Willis
Language philosopher Bry Willis examines the inherent linguistic and ontological instability of the concept of consent within legal frameworks. The author argues that consent is not a recoverable fact but a constructed threshold that courts must impose upon often irreconcilable personal experiences. Because individuals process encounters through divergent pre-verbal orientations, legal systems frequently mistake a forced resolution for the discovery of an objective truth. Nevertheless, Willis maintains that the ethical duty of care remains absolute, falling heavily on the party who acts into situational uncertainty. Ultimately, the text suggests that while the law cannot truly access subjective psychology, it must still maintain these artificial boundaries to prevent moral chaos.👉 https://brywillis634737.substack.com/p/what-the-court-cannot-recover/
