Collective identity and collective rights are completely different because collective means the same thing which is a group of people so we know what they are both a group of people but we don't know what rights and identity are. So here I'll break It down for you. Identity means what people look like and rights mean like freedoms and laws.

It is a contract that disregards the rights of the individual in favor of the "will" of the collective. The rights of the collective? Honor the rights of all individuals and the rights of the collective are undeniably protected. Claim the collective has rights that are superior to individual rights and the collective becomes a pool of human fodder for those clever enough to plunder. The will of the people? The people have spoken? I am speaking now, when you speak you will be speaking then and if you speak in these WA pages you are participating in a collective but are you speaking for the collective? Certainly, as many will attest, I don't speak for the collective. I speak for those who find themselves with headings such as ANOTHER VIEW or A DIFFERENT PERSPECTIVE and were I to foolishly enter into agreement with any social contract, my VIEW and PERSPECTIVE would be subject to the "will" of the collective. I am fortunate to be treated as an individual with certain rights as an individual in this WA site, and I am fortunate there is Dispute Resolution Center and a Community Advisory Team set in place to help me when I find myself being subjected to the "will" of the collective.I relish being an individual, I am proud and honored to be a part of this collective known as WikiAnswers.com, but I will always be an individual first and foremost and so will you.
