Human rights are something that apply universally to all people regardless of the government they live under the rule of. There's a reason why many governments are condemned for violating human rights. If they were allowed to determine the human rights of their own citizens, no government would ever violate human rights.


Can they be enforced to everyone?

No, they are consepts and ideas that depend where you are in the world.

You must have missted the part where ISIS is commiting genoside, human trafficing, rape, ect.

And the part where Saudi Arabia publicy stones people to death.


You are bending over not only backwards but inverted to say that selling guns to muderers is ok.


This is, madness. Its the most insane defence of an indefenceable opion I have ever seen. And, to be bunt, this opion that its ok to sell guns and nukes to horrable horrable people who actvily do horrable things is compleat and utter bullshit.


Why are genocide, human trafficking, rape, and public stoning bad?

No.

So, does the right to life change depending on where you are in the world?

Yes, they do all those things. Doesn't make them less deserving of human rights.

"Complete and utter bullshit." You see capitalism as complete and utter bullshit? Hope you have fun when your economy crashes because you can't stomach engaging in trades with characters with questionable motives.

They are created and enforced by the goverments of the world. But where first created by people who then made the goverment who now enforces those rights.

To answer the question we all know the answer too:

Rape and murder are wrong beacuse they voloate other peoples bodly enterdy.

No one has a right to voloate someone elses body anywhere on the planet

Makeing a profit isnt nesserly a good thing.

Blind captolism with no human element, no morals, is a easy way to a distopia.

Thus, I call this whole fucking thing bullshit.

I dont use that word oftion in debates, but here it is clear that this whole idea that "profit = good even when selling to a muderer" is entrely bullshit.

Insane. Crapolla. Utterly detanged and detached from realty. Soulless. Heartless.

Jesus cast out the merchants for excatly this reason.

When you go to the grocery store, do they care what your intent is for buying something? No.They sell it, and leave it at that. Why should arms sales be different?
