I think, zpeti's point is that human rights should be privileges (or liberties) and not claims in the Hohfeldian system (https://plato.stanford.edu/entries/rights/#FormRighHohfAnalSyst https://plato.stanford.edu/entries/rights/#FormRighHohfAnalS...).
There is a conflation between "correlatives" (a privilege means that no-one else has a claim to prevent you from exercising the privilege, whereas if you have a claim, then someone has the duty to fulfill it) and enforcement which requires state intervention.
