> Don't different countries have different views of rights?
And so they would apply their views in their own jurisdiction.
> What happens when those rights are at odds?
Whichever jurisdiction you stand in correspond to the rights that prevail for you.
The way I see it, a country says what the rights of people/humans are, and they defend those beliefs in their own jurisdiction, where they have the absolute power to.
> So I think the main issue is, how can all humans have the same protections if different jurisdictions protect different things?
I think baddox's comment does not necessarily imply all humans in the world. I interpreted it as all humans in a given jurisdiction.

Ah I had not thought of it in this way but that makes sense. I can't disagree that all people in a single jurisdiction should be afforded the same procedural rights (I couch it in procedural rights because substantive rights are stripped from felons for example in many jurisdictions).
