Welcome to the world outside of the US, there is such a thing as 'human rights' already you know. You can keep your bill of 'rights' where it is, thanks.
Same about "human rights"
It's a real bummer that the US doesn't recognize that human rights apply to all human beings.
Maybe because there are human rights in the US?
You didn't address the part about the questionable human rights records
Maybe in US; civilized countries obey Human Rights, not “citizen rights”.
where was the parent mentioning this is a violation of one's human rights exactly?
Not sure why this got flagged. It's not directly political, it's a human rights issue.
Human rights violations are wrong 100% of the time. Whataboutism doesn't change that.
The Universal Declaration of Human Rights [1] begs to differ.1: https://www.un.org/en/about-us/universal-declaration-of-huma...
