- algorias 4y agoSometimes I have to travel through those countries. E.g. my employer demands that I take the cheapest flight to attend a conference.
- TheGhostOfBoris 4y ago> my employer demands that I take the cheapest flight to attend a conference. WTF! Several of my employees bowl from the pavilion end. Is utterly unthinkable to insist on them transiting through a territory so hostile to their very existence in order to save a few quid on expenses. Your post is mind boggling to me. Is this how you expect to be treated as an employee?

- PhasmaFelis 4y agoYou would suddenly have a very clear and unyielding perspective on human rights if someone tried to take yours away.
- bes__ 4y agoEven if that was true (it isn't) it doesn't establish them as a real thing or as something that's not a western category of thought.
- ramphastidae 4y agoYou have about 150 years of history to catch up on. Sure, human rights was founded in western culture, but has been adopted across the world since.
