Did Stalin want economic equality like Karl Marx did?
Stalin was one of the Bolsheviks that created the revolution against the provisional government that was set up upon the resignation of the Tsar. For the most part it can be said that Stalin was the closest friend of the Bolshevik leader Lenin. Lenin's early death created a situation whereby Stalin eliminated all rivals for the leadership of the Communist Party. Bolsheviks that pressed Stalin for changes that would be more in line with Marxist Communism were either liquidated ( killed) or sent into exile. Other Marxists and people close to Stalin were part of the purges he employed to remove " traitors of the revolution". Stalin's actions until his death in 1953, proved him to be more interested in controlling all of the USSR, rather than promoting economic equality. Of course in a manner of speaking worker equality did exist. Under Stalin, the people he considered to be loyal were far above the tens of millions of workers and farmers.
Does discrimination still exist today any examples?
Yes, discrimination still exists today in various forms, such as racism, sexism, ageism, and discrimination based on gender identity or sexual orientation. For example, pay inequity between genders, prejudice against certain ethnic groups, and barriers faced by individuals with disabilities are all examples of persistent discrimination in society.
What is a counter argument for no murdering or abuse?
While there are always grey areas under the law in which the crime of murder might, on consideration in a court of law, be found to be a lesser crime, the terms 'murder' or 'abuse' both denote wrongdoing in a legal sense.
The term 'murder', in a moral sense and taken as being committed with ill-intent towards the victim, always denotes wrongdoing.
The term 'abuse' also describes wrondoing, but is subject to a great deal of messing about by those who need, or want to claim, excuses for abusing others. In real-life terms, 'abuse' means deliberately doing something to someone else in order to hurt them, in one way or another, so let's assume that's what we're talking about here.
To argue that nobody should be allowed commit murder or any other form of abuse against another, takes us inevitably to the conclusion that nobody should commit murder or other abuse against others, and that nobody should escape punishment if they commit these offences.
A counterargument, then, cannot exist if we are using the terms 'murder' or 'abuse' in their usual and universal sense. We can't argue logically that we are in favour of the murder or abuse of others, or at least not in those words.
Arguments have been presented for, to give one example, compulsory killing of defective babies, or defective humans of any age, but these arguments don't use the term 'murder' to describe the proposed actions. One term used to describe this practice is 'eugenics'; another is 'cleansing (of the human species, or of individual cultural groups)', or even 'culling'.
Similarly, there are arguments for, as another example, the punishment of children by hitting them or otherwise abusing them in order to improve their learning or general behaviour. These arguments, again, don't use the term 'abuse' to describe the proposed methods of behaviour enhancement; terms used are 'discipline' and 'teaching' and so on. Interestingly, those who are convinced hitting children is a good way to help them learn don't use the term 'hit', but say, instead, 'smack'.
In that reasoning, if an adult hits a child with educational intent, it's a 'smack'. If the child hits back in retaliation, the child should be 'smacked' again to teach it 'hitting' is wrong.
Playing with, or manipulation of, words is perhaps the only way a counterargument could be mounted to an argument against murder or abuse, by calling 'murder' or 'abuse' something else and then explaining why whatever word we use instead of 'murder' or 'abuse' is a good thing.
Otherwise, a reasonable counterargument for either action, given the accepted usage of the terms, might be to suggest murder or abuse is perfectly okay from the perpetrator's point of view, provided the person committing the murder or abuse is sociopathic (psychopathic).

Should Freedom of speech not be in limits?
There should be slight limits on the freedom of speech. One reason for that is because there are those who will use that right (if it had no limits) to promote the abuse or violence against others without being responsible for it. Someone could yell out kill them all and if someone actually did it because that person said it then the one who spoke those words would not be liable. With restrictions in the law that state that if your words directly lead to some violent acts against someone the people are much better protected and justice can be served to both promoter of that violent act and the one who committed the act of violence.
Are laws necessary to govern ethical treatment of employees?
Yes, laws are necessary to establish a minimum standard for ethical treatment of employees. Laws provide a framework to protect employees from exploitation and abuse, ensure fair practices within the workplace, and hold employers accountable for their actions. While laws set the foundation for ethical treatment, organizations should also strive to go above and beyond legal requirements to create a positive and supportive work environment for their employees.

Why should people not get curel punishiment?
People should not support or engage in cruel punishment because it goes against principles of human rights, dignity, and rehabilitation. It can lead to further harm and trauma instead of fostering personal growth and society's well-being. There are more effective and humane approaches, such as rehabilitation, education, and restorative justice, that can address wrongdoing and promote positive change.

How would you use utilitarianism in debate?
As Utilitarianism is the greatest good for the greatest number of people I'd put my focus on that. Arguing that surely helping a thousand people is better than helping one or two, or whether the human rights of one person (such as a refugee) outweigh the rights of a country they are seeking to enter (or some other current issue... current issues work well). Remember that you don't have to believe what you are arguing.
Why do some people get human rights and others dont?
The concept of human rights is based on the belief that all individuals are born equal and deserve to be treated with dignity and respect. However, in reality, not all governments or societies fully recognize or protect these rights. Factors such as political, social, and economic systems, cultural norms, discrimination, conflicts, and inequalities can contribute to the denial or violation of human rights for some people. Promoting and protecting human rights requires ongoing efforts to address these systemic issues and ensure equal rights for all individuals.
What does pray in public scholls have to do with civil liberties?
One of our civil liberties is the freedom of religion. Prayer in school would be depriving a child of their freedom because it is forcing that child to say a prayer to a god in which they do not believe or pray to. For example, a violation of a civil liberty in school via pray would be forcing someone who reads the Koran to read the Bible. Another example would be making a Jew read the Koran. A public school is an institution that hosts a myriad of different religions and beliefs. Therefore, that institution should steer away from pray because it can't accommodate all of the different prayers without offending or stripping someone else of their civil liberty (freedom of religion)
Are human rights more important than animal rights?
This is a difficult question to answer. Both human rights and animal rights are very important to have in society. If you have to choose between one of them, however, it can be argued that human rights are more important than animal rights, simply because humans are on a higher ethical and intellectual level than animals, and as such humans are more aware of injustice and can therefore suffer more from injustice than animals. However, if you look at it from a moral point of view, you have to say both are equally important because if we as humans have to live in a society where there are only human rights and animals suffer and have no rights, we have lost our humanity and thus, are not human anymore and as a result our human rights become worthless.
Unfortunately, though, any discussion of rights tends to invoke the legal system of whatever nation you're in. The US court system does not recognize animal rights as usually defined due to the fact that animals cannot reasonably be expected to carry out any duties, and are accordingly denied rights. Animals are afforded protection against abuse, though the protection varies from state to state.
