A-Rights
Canonical definition
A-rights are entitlements to secure access to basic appetitive goods and protection against A-coercion and A-harm.
Explanation
An A-right is the claim not to be left hungry, unsheltered, or medically abandoned when others could reasonably prevent it, and not to have food, housing, or safety dangled as a tool of control. These rights protect the body's basic needs from being weaponized-no one should have to accept exploitation, abuse, or dangerous conditions just to eat, sleep safely, or receive medical care.
