    Universal human rights are an idea that merits further consideration.

      It's a fantastic concept, even if "human rights abuse" language is often co-opted to stoke hate for countries that challenge U.S. hegemony.

      We have had agreement to universal human rights for the last 70 years and we have only seen the weaponisation of liberal rights with complete neglect of economic and social rights.
