Thanks I read Rousseau a long time ago. It was clear to me then he was a moron. The social contract is the study of the relationship between an individual and the state. R didn't invent it or even the name. It was examined by Hobbes and Locke and others. I read them all. I even read Hegel. Mill, Hobbes and Locke got it about right. Rosseau is an outright moron who predicates everything on his blank slate shit, today known as SJW social constructionism". The fact that we know for a fact this is exactly not true doesn't stop these idots because, hey , once you declare shit like evidence and logical reasoning to be white supremecy, well, anything goes.
I don't think you have read Rousseau. You didn't even know he was the author of the text The Social Contract... fairly basic stuff there, dude. Yes, Locke and Hobbes presented their British empirically centered texts about the state, but to call Rousseau a "moron" is daft, and to strawman him as "the SJW of his day" is comical.
Blank slate (tabula rasa) is in no way aligned with "constructionism" - that is absolute disinformation, and laughable. Tabula rasa was largely propagated by Thomas Aquinas in Summa Contra Gentiles and Summa Theological as he repackaged Aristotle's hylomorphic epistemology (vis a vis Metaphysics, book *Lambda" specifically) with that of Christianity.
Social Contract was Jean Jacques Rousseau. Not Mill.
[John Stuart] Mill wrote, perhaps most widely anthologized, Utilitarianism - more of a text on moral and ethical practice.
Rousseau's text is an early modern political work discussing the tacit agreement the freeman has with a body politic (state). I'd suggest reading it.
Cheers.

Which is the point with R and them both.

More people than myself run blank slate and noble savage together:
