When the remedy for a violation of a "human right" is "file a complaint with the UN", it is outright theater. UN has no authority or even rapport to instrument

When the remedy for a violation of a "human right" is "file a complaint with the UN", it is outright theater. UN has no authority or even rapport to instrument or enforce such a wishful goal, noble as it is.
No one gives you rights; certainly they're not granted by a piece of paper. Rights are what you can guarantee and defend yourself and with fellow citizens, through political will or brute force. Everything else is meaningless virtue signaling.
