Moment at 0:20 in The Dark Side of Political Order. by GROWTH™.
Carl Schmitt's argument raises an uncomfortable question: when two people have completely different levels of power, can their discussion really be considered equal? We often imagine laws, rules, and rational debate as neutral systems that exist above individuals. But the conditions surrounding those systems matter. If one side has the ability to impose its decision while the other side has no meaningful way to resist, negotiation can become something very different from genuine agreement. This doesn't mean every rule is simply an expression of power, but it does force us to ask who has the ability to enforce the rules, who gets to define them, and what happens when the balance between the people involved disappears.
