I never stated "human rights" shouldn't be respected or enforced. I said, in the US, they don't exist. They were not created by congress, then enshrined into law. It is a concept created by the UN over 70 years ago, and yes, the US was a member at that time, but as you clearly agree, we certainly aren't enforcing all of those "human rights" conceived by the UN. I don't know how to make this any clearer.

A wonderful idea, but unless said country has adopted them, then enforcing them, they're meaningless.

Then continue supporting them and stop spouting drivel about them not existing.

If you want them enforced you need to treat them as something to be taken seriously, and you need to condemn goverments when they violate them.

Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.

Our Rules:

  1. Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.

  2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.

  3. Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.

  4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

  5. No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.
